Simone Biles' injury doesn’t stop Team USA from leading gymnastics qualifying at Olympics

Team USA didn't have the cleanest qualification round, between Simone Biles' injury and Jade Carey's fall, but they hold a huge lead with a 172.296 on the team standings after two subdivisions. Currently in second place is China with 166.861.

Meanwhile, the top of the individual all-around leaderboard:

1. Simone Biles, 59.566
2. Sunisa Lee, 56.132
3. Jordan Chiles, 56.065 (eliminated)
4. Algeria's Kaylia Nemour, 55.966

Three more subdivisions to go. We'll check back in once the field has filled out.

Being a Team USA gymnast means you could be the third-best in the world, but get eliminated by your teammates. Suni Lee beats out Chiles with a 14.866 on the bars and will get a chance to defend her gold medal.

Meanwhile, Simone Biles is untaping her ankle after a hard day's work.

The bars might be Biles' worst event, but she looked great there, nailing a difficult dismount and getting a 14.433 score. She was all smiles as she hit the mat... then walked away in the wrong direction. She should hold a chasmic lead in the all-around when all of the subdivisions are done.

Now, Suni Lee, competing for her own all-around spot.

Suni Lee will basically need to be perfect here to get a chance to defend her all-around gold in Tokyo.

The 16-year-old rookie starts Team USA off strong with a 13.900. Cute: NBC showed a heartrate monitor for her father Henry, which sat at around 180 BPM

Only two gymnasts per country are allowed to qualify for the individual all-around finals. Biles will almost certainly take the first U.S. spot. The second one will come down to Jordan Chiles vs. Suni Lee.

Chiles sits at 41.799 while Lee is at 41.266, but Lee could hold the advantage on the bars, where she won bronze in Tokyo.

Biles is clearly in some pain. She hopped down the stage with one foot and seems to be limping as she walks around the arena floor, but the vaults are all that count. She gets a 14.800, working out to a 15.300 overall score, and she is sitting pretty heading into Team USA's final rotation, the uneven bars.

Nearly two points higher than every other vault. That. Will. Play

NBC's Laurie Hernandez: "I feel like I'm going to throw up"

Biles: lands the hardest trick in gymnastics with a taped ankle, with a big step backwards.

Hernandez: "Yay."

Carey shakes off her bad fall on the floor routine with a 14.433 on vault. She'll make the finals with a huge score and her mother is tearing up in the crowd.

Next up: Simone Biles.

Lee posts a 14.133 while Chiles has a 14.21. Both great scores. Jade Carey up next.

With a taped ankle, it's now time for Biles' signature event: the vault. She'll be making two vaults, so we'll see if the injury affects her.

Outside of putting her left foot out of bounds on her first tumble, Biles just came up big. Either that ankle injury was much ado about nothing, or we just saw some incredible grit. She could be heard saying "I was looking through that routine like 'what the f*** was that.'"

She gets a 14.600, again the best of the day, and all is well for now outside of Carey not being able to defend her gold medal.

With a heavily taped-up left ankle, Simone Biles is coming on for the floor. Carey got a 10.633.

Jade Carey is a floor star for Team USA, but she just posted an ugly routine with a very bad fall, right as the mood had started shifting due to uncertainty around Biles. Carey is now unlikely to reach the floor finals, while Biles is back on the arena floor.

Potentially huge development. Biles is exiting the arena with a potential left left leg injury, while reigning floor gold medalist Jade Carey takes the floor. Biles due up next.

Biles could be heard telling trainers it hurts to push off her left ankle. They're now taping it.

Suni Lee gets a 13.100 on the floor, with Jordan Chiles going next. Only one more gymnast before Biles has to take the floor.

Right after delivering on the beam, Biles warms up for the floor and appears to tweak something. She could be heard telling trainers she could feel something while warming up. We'll see where this goes.

Meanwhile, Suni Lee takes the floor for Team USA's first routine of the second rotation.

Welcome back, Simone Biles. The greatest gymnast in history delivers a flawless beam routine. She exhales and points to the sky after her dismount, then receives a 14.733, by far the highest score so far today.

The defending all-around gold medalist had a couple wobbles, but does what she needs to do with a 14.033.

Now, Simone Biles.

The lone Olympic rookie on Team USA doesn't post her best routine, stumbling a couple times with a messy dismount. She gets a 12.633. Keep in mind each team only uses three out of their four scores, so Simone Biles and Suni Lee can erase that by meeting their usual standards.

Team USA's first rotation will be on the balance beam, where Jordan Chiles gives them a great start with a 13.600. Italy and China are among the other teams currently competing right now.

Subdivision 2 is about to get started, with Team USA taking the floor to huge cheers. Add Snoop Dogg and Lady Gaga to the list of celebrity attendees as well.

Among the celebrities in attendance: Ariana Grande, Jessica Chastain, Anna Wintour, Tom Cruise and Greta Gerwig.

Romania was ahead of Great Britain for much of Subdivision 1, but they had to count a fall on their final rotation at the uneven bars, which cost them big. Now they have to watch eight other teams to see if they'll make the final.

Subdivision 1, featuring Great Britain, Romania, Mexico and an assortment of other countries just wrapped up their qualifiers. Great Britain and Romania were the only full teams in competition, with Great Britain leading the two-squad race with a total score of 160.830. Romania trails with 159.497.

Romania's Ana Barbosu leads the all-around competition at 53.533.
