2020–21: Olympic champion

edit

In February 2020, it was announced that Derwael would compete at the 2020 Tokyo World Cup.[80] However, the Tokyo World Cup was later canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan.[81] In December 2020, Derwael and her boyfriend Siemen Voet tested positive for COVID-19, but she was asymptomatic.[82]

Derwael returned to competition in March 2021 at the Belgian internal test meet where she won the all-around gold medal and the gold medals on all four events.[83] In June, she competed at the Osijek Challenge Cup and won the gold medal on the uneven bars and the balance beam.[84] At this event, she debuted a new element on the uneven bars: a toe-on laid-out Tkatchev (a Nabieva) with a 1/2 twist, and the element was named after her.[3] At the Flanders International Team Challenge, she finished fourth in the all-around, helped the Belgian team win the silver medal behind France, and won the gold medal on the uneven bars.[85]

In July 2021, Derwael was selected to represent Belgium at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo alongside Maellyse Brassart, Jutta Verkest, and Lisa Vaelen.[86] At the Olympic Games, Derwael helped Belgium qualify for their first team final; individually, she qualified for the all-around and uneven bars finals.

2022–23: World medal and injuries

edit

After a 15-month absence due to knee injuries, Derwael returned to competition at the 2022 World Championships in Liverpool.[4][91] While there, she helped the Belgian team finish 11th during qualifications, and individually, she qualified for the uneven bars final.[92] During the event final, she earned the bronze medal behind reigning world champion Wei Xiaoyuan of China and American Shilese Jones.[93]

Derwael missed the 2023 European Championships due to a shoulder injury.[94] She then dislocated her shoulder in practice leading up to the 2023 World Championships in Antwerp and withdrew from the event.[95] At the World Championships, Belgium failed to qualify a full team for the 2024 Olympic Games. This meant Derwael would have to pursue an individual quota.[96][97]

2024: Third Olympic Games

edit

Derwael announced at the beginning of the year she would compete on the balance beam at the 2024 World Cup series to attempt to qualify for the 2024 Olympic Games.[98] Six months after shoulder surgery, she returned to competition at the Cairo World Cup and won the gold medal on the balance beam.[96] Then at the World Cup in Cottbus, she finished in fifth place, but she was the highest-placing gymnast of those eligible for Olympic qualification points.[99] Then at the World Cup in Baku, she won the bronze medal and was once again the highest-placing Olympic-eligible athlete. These results guaranteed her qualification for the 2024 Olympic Games.[100]

Personal life

edit

Derwael is studying Event Management at the Artevelde University of Applied Sciences in Ghent.[4] She speaks Dutch, French, and English.[4] At the 2020 Olympics, a photo of Derwael and her teammate Maellyse Brassart sitting in a split with tennis player Novak Djokovic went viral.[101][102]

After the 2020 Olympics, Derwael began competing on the third season of Belgium's Dancing with the Stars.[103] After receiving the highest score in the final episode, she was voted the winner of the season.[104][105]
