Jordan Chiles announces 2028 Olympic bid following collegiate career
Summary

Gymnast Jordan Chiles announced her intention to compete at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. The announcement was made via a social media video featuring narration by Michael Jordan and appearances by Normani and Winnie Harlow, concluding with Chiles displaying custom "LA 28" grillz created by Paul Wall and Johnny Dang. Chiles is a two-time Olympic medalist who won team silver in 2020 and team gold in 2024. Her announcement follows her recent appointment as a student coach for the UCLA gymnastics program.
