The 18-year-old, the youngest member of the gold medal-winning 2024 Paris Olympic team and a two-time national all-around champion, withdrew due to a left ankle injury. Rivera had been experiencing pain in the ankle during training and had told reporters on Thursday she was \"day to day.\" She has been replaced by alternate Dulcy Caylor. The U.S. women, aiming for their eighth consecutive world team title, will compete in qualifying on Sunday.",
