    With the start of the Paris Olympics still a few days away, Simone Biles is taking the opportunity to cheer on her competition.

    The U.S. Olympic gymnast touched down in Paris with her teammates and spent Tuesday training with her teammates and other competitors. Reporter Scott Bregman noted that Biles took a break from her routine to watch Algeria's Kaylia Nemour on the bars.

    Bregman reported that he could hear Biles offering some words of encouragement to Nemour.

    "Come on!" Biles shouted.

    Bregman noted that Biles herself looked "extremely solid" in her events at practice.

    After withdrawing from the Toyko Olympics amid struggles with her performance and mental health concerns, Biles said she is ready to prove herself and bring back another gold.

    "This is definitely our redemption tour," Biles said at the U.S. Olympic trials. "I feel like we all have more to give... I feel like we have a lot of weight on our shoulders to go out there and prove that we're better athletes, we're more mature, we're smarter, we're more consistent."
