Biles' latest feats came Saturday during qualifying, when she completed a triple-twisting double backflip on floor and a double-double dismount on beam, Team USA reported. Once approved by the International Gymnastics Federation, the sport's official code of points will refer to the moves as the Biles II and the Biles, respectively, the website said.

Biles also successfully completed the skills two months ago at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships, "Good Morning America" reported.
This isn't the first time the 22-year-old has had moves named after her; another floor element and a vault bear her name, as well, according to Team USA.
