    Simone Biles Reveals 'Official Team Name' Of USA Women’s Gymnastics

    On Tuesday, the USA women's gymnastics team, including Simone Biles, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey, and Suni Lee, brought home gold in the all-around team final at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

    Team USA finished the four-rotation event with a final team score of 171.296. Biles recorded the highest individual score out of all the competitors, with a 58.332.

    During a press conference after the event, Biles nicknamed the USA women's gymnastics team "F.A.A.F.O.," which stands for "[expletive] around and find out." But in her latest social media post, she backtracked on that name and revealed the real nickname for this year's women's team: "Golden Girls."

    Team USA was the oldest team in the women's gymnastics team final, with Biles (27) being the oldest of the group. Carey (24), Chiles (23), and Lee (21) round out the rest of the team, which brings the total age to 95, averaging out to 23.75.

    "Golden Girls" also stems from the popular 1980s American sitcom starring Betty White. The show is about four older women who live in the same home in Florida.
