Earlier this month the 26-year-old gymnast became the first woman in history to land a Yurchenko double pike vault after performing the move at the championships in Belgium.

Simone Biles has hinted she might be heading to Paris to take part in the upcoming 2024 Olympics. The 26-year-old became the most decorated gymnast in history after sealing her sixth world all-around title in Belgium this month. In an interview with NBC's The Today Show on Thursday, presenter Hoda Kotb asked what the odds would be of Biles being part of Team USA in France if she were to bet $100 on it right now. 'I think you'd be pretty lucky, Hoda,' Biles said.

Asked about her feelings towards gymnastics, Biles, who married American football player Jonathan Owens this year, said: 'I think in gymnastics I still have to dig deep down and remember why I am doing it, and do it for the little girl like I said on the Instagram post. 'But it is a little bit different, like now it's like I'm a wife, I'm still a daughter, sister, and all of the things... and gymnastics is something that I get to come and have the privilege of doing.
