Just weeks before the Games, Souza suffered an injury to her hand during a training session on bars and was forced to withdraw from competition.

She was initially treated at the University of Utah Medical Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Because of the injury, Souza was not able to compete in the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games.
