Sport: Gymnastics
Country: USA
A strong pool of US gymnasts are looking to fill just four Olympic spots, making it hard to predict who we'll see in the arena in Tokyo (beyond Simone Biles, who's a pretty sure bet). Nineteen-year-old Morgan Hurd is a strong contender. Though she was left off the World Championships team in 2019, Hurd has earned 24 world championship medals throughout her career, including a gold in the all-around in 2017. She's known for combining grace with difficult and dynamic skills across apparatuses, and her fourth-place finish at the US Gymnastics Championships in 2019 has kept her in the conversation for the Tokyo Olympics.
