“I’m not dead or transferring y’all.” That’s how Simone Biles’ former teammate tried to calm the storm of speculation back on March 23. With fans growing increasingly anxious over her absence, that single sentence was enough to keep hope alive: whenever she makes her comeback, it’ll be in purple and gold—an LSU Tiger through and through. But as the season unfolded, things took a turn. The gymnast later revealed she’d been “horribly sick for almost a month,” adding another layer to her health struggles. Despite fans holding out hope, the highly anticipated return never came. And by the end of the season, disappointment hung in the air.
Then, on May 28, Zoe Miller returned to Instagram with yet another update—and it wasn’t the one fans were hoping for. This time, she confirmed she had undergone a second shoulder surgery. The same injury that ended her elite gymnastics career last year had come back, this time affecting her other shoulder. Her caption said it all: “just life doing life things… pt. 2 featuring the other shoulder.” Support quickly poured in from the gymnastics world, including a heartfelt message from former LSU teammate Sierra Ballard, who wrote: “so proud of you. love you so much .” As for what’s next? The road to recovery won’t be easy, but if anyone can flip the script, it’s Zoe Miller.
