They've been on a whirlwind tour since the Olympics — from "Late Night With David Letterman" to the Empire State Building and the New York Stock Exchange — but gold-medal gymnasts Gabby Douglas and Jordyn Wieber have one more stop to make before they can truly take a breath: the White House.
Swimming, track and field, basketball, women's soccer, Serena Williams and Aly Raisman. They all found their way onto U.S. Olympic Committee chairman Larry Probst's highlight list from the London Games.
Aly Raisman is going home with two gold medals, just like teammate Gabby Douglas.
Jordyn Wieber came to the Olympics with her eye on a fistful of medals.
The coach of reigning world champion Jordyn Wieber says it's an "injustice" the American won't be included in Thursday's Olympic all-around finals.

Jordyn Wieber kicked off her Olympic year with a victory and may have found a new threat to her gold medal hopes.
"I felt like I had nothing to lose," Raisman said. "It was going to be my last memory for London, so I just wanted to make it count and enjoy it."
