Artistic gymnast Simone Biles, on her return to the competition, made history as she became the first woman to perform Yurchenko Double Pike- a move traditionally performed only by men. The 24-year-old World Champion was competing at the 2021 GK US Classic in Indianapolis as she clinched the gold medal following the historic vault. In 2019, she landed a double-double dismount and became the first gymnast to perform it.
