Simone Biles is set to compete in what may be her last Olympic games and is considered the heavy, heavy favorite for the women's all-around competition at -500, meaning a $500 wager would be required to make a profit of $100.
In addition, she'll compete in team competitions with her fellow Americans.
Team USA — alongside Biles' teammates Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey and rookie Hezly Rivera — are the -230 favorites to win gold in team competition, on average.
It's there that Biles will begin her Paris journey. The four-time gold medalist will begin qualifiers on Sunday, July 28 at 3:30 a.m. ET.
Biles will continue qualifying in short order in four events: the all-around, vault, uneven bars and balance beam.
Biles' first prospective final will be in the women's all-around event on Thursday, Aug. 1 at 12:15 p.m. ET.
The women's vault final will take place on Saturday, Aug. 3 at 10:20 a.m. ET, in the likely event that Biles qualifies for it. The following morning will be the women's uneven bars final starting at 9:40 p.m. ET.
And on Monday, Aug. 5, the women's balance beam final and floor exercise final start at 6:36 a.m. ET and 8:20 a.m. ET, respectively.
At DraftKings, only the all-around event has posted odds — at least for individual events.
Do note that wagering in gymnastics is only permitted in certain states, such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Colorado.
