Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas, the first Black gymnast to win the Olympic all-around gold medal in 2012, has announced her return to competitive gymnastics after an eight-year hiatus, with her sights set on the Paris Olympics. At 28, she will be the oldest gymnast in the upcoming Winter Cup competition and is training on all four apparatuses, with a focus on the uneven bars.
