Biles, 27, was in Olympic form at the 2024 US Championships.
She won her record ninth all-around national title on Sunday at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
Biles received the highest score for four events and won by 5.9 points overall.
With the Summer Olympics set for July 26-August 11 in Paris, it's a near-lock that Biles will be the most popular face in France for the entire United States team.

Biles has won seven total Olympic medals.
She's looking to bounce back on the world's biggest stage after a frustrating run at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, which saw Biles deal with a public case of the "twisties."
"For anyone saying I quit. I didn't quit," Biles posted. "My mind and body are simply not in sync."
That wasn't the case at the US Championships, where she dominated the floor and again reminded fans of her all-around power and precision.
Fans also noticed her husband, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens, supporting his wife.
Biles recently defended Owens on social media.
"I'm going to quickly address this, the joke was never a joke!" Biles wrote. "Y'all are blatantly being disrespectful to my relationship and my husband.
"If you keep commenting or tweeting at me I'm just going to block you. simple as that. And no I don't need to touch grass or whatever tf y'all suggest…"
";Love her hubby!" a fan tweeted. "He’s so proud!!!!"
Owens also has a big sports year ahead.
He's teammates with Caleb Williams, the highly outspoken quarterback and recent No. 1 pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.
