The Fierce 5...What's next?

Jordyn Wieber

After doing the 40 city Olympic tour, Jordyn plans on finishing her senior year at DeWitt high school in January. In the fall of 2013, Jordyn will attend UCLA as the volunteer assistant coach for the gymnastics team. Jordyn hasn't ruled out continuing gymnastics yet and her coach John Geddert hopes she'll give the 2013 Worlds a go. "She's a senior in high school. I think she has another good year before she goes off to college. Worlds is certainly a realistic goal for her." he told the press after the London Olympics. Wieber said she has thought about 2016, but won't make a decision until after the tour. "It's very hard to picture myself going another four years, but it's definitely in the back of my mind. We'll see." she told the Lansing State Journal.







Mckayla Maroney

Mckayla was planning on doing only some of the tour stops and then possibly heading back to the gym. But right now, things aren't looking to good. Mckayla injured her fibula in rehearsals for the tour and then injured her left knee when she landed a bar dismount during the show. You can watch it here. She is currently going under medical evaluations and tests to determine the extent of her injury, then she would like to return to competitive gymnastics. "I'm almost positive that I really want to stick with this and stay with gymnastics, at least to another worlds." she told the press in London. Mckayla also talked about possibly doing the triple twisting yurchenko vault and getting it named after her.






Gabby Douglas

The Olympic all around champ will only be doing about half of the tour stops but is "definitely" looking forward to potentially competing in Rio in 2016. That is, if she doesn't get to caught up in the fame. But first she'll be writing a memoir set to be released in December called "Grace, Gold, and Glory, My Leap of Faith." "Even before I competed in the Olympic, I always wanted to write a book." she told People magazine. Gabby will also be doing her junior year of high school online and is already being recruited by colleges like Spelman University. In fact, the schools president even flew out to London to meet Gabby and give her a gift bag.







Aly Raisman

While Aly's original plan was to do the full 40 city Olympic tour, that may change. During an uneven bar performance at the Ontario tour stop, Aly fell from the bars and bruised her knees. While reports are saying she is fine with an icing & a treatment regimen, it has yet to be determined if she'll continue to do all of the tour stops. However Aly doesn't want to be finished quite yet. "2016 is in the back of my mind." she told her local news.










Kyla Ross

The most quiet from the Fierce 5 is still getting her chance to shine in the spotlight. Between the VMA's, appearing on Ellen, and doing the west coast tour stops...Kyla is ready to head back to Aliso Niguel High School where she'll be a sophomore and of course, back to the gym. "I am proud to go back to school and back to my teenage life. I definitely want to start training again. I'm looking forward to getting into routine shape and looking forward to the next Olympics in Rio in 4 years." she told the Aliso Viejo Patch.
