Many fans are wondering what happened to Hezly Rivera or if she might be hurt or injured at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The youngest member of the women’s gymnastics team for Team USA, the 16-year-old Hezly appeared during the qualification rounds, performing on beam and uneven bars. However, she is not slated to compete in the women’s team final, all-around, or any apparatus finals. This has led to a selection controversy where gymnastics fans are confused about her absence in the team final. Here’s a breakdown of the Hezly Rivera controversy during the 2024 Olympic Games.

LCM (50 meters) Prelims Live Recaps: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4. Two days into the 2023 World Championships, we published a YouTube video titled “what’s going on with Team USA?” after the Americans finished day one of the meet without a gold medal for the first time since 1994. The common consensus then was that we were just overreacting. Even when Team USA had its worst gold medal count at an Olympics/World Championships since 1994, there were plenty of explanations behind their underperformance: the team went on a red-eye flight from Singapore to Fukuoka, there was only a three-week turnaround from trials to Worlds, and this meet could have just been another repeat of the notoriously 2015 World Championships. The expectation was that the Americans would rise to the occasion during the Olympic year.
