American gymnast Simone Biles has withdrawn from Monday's floor final at the Tokyo Olympics but is yet to make a decision on whether she will compete in the beam final on Tuesday.

The four-time Olympic champion, 24, had already withdrawn from the women's team final and individual all-around final to focus on her mental health.

It means Great Britain's Jennifer Gadirova enters the floor final having been first reserve.

Biles had her lowest Olympic vault score in the opening rotation before withdrawing from the team final on 26 July.

Team silver in Tokyo was Biles' sixth Olympic medal and took her tally of Olympic and World Championship medals to 30.

I have to focus on my mental health.

"We have to protect our minds and our bodies and not just go out and do what the world wants us to do.
