God made women special, strong and spectacular, and 22-year-old Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles is proof of that.

The world-renowned athlete teased a move that no female gymnast in history has ever successfully pulled off in a competition. But if anyone can do it, she can. The question is, will she?

Biles, the most decorated gymnast in the history of the sport, is looking to add additional medals to her growing collection at the upcoming Tokyo Olympics by landing a move called the Yurchenko Double Pike. Known for its high risk of head or neck injury, it has only been done by a handful of male gymnasts.

In a clip of Biles that surfaced online, she is seen flipping through the air multiple times, apparently practicing the difficult move, and landing in a foam pit—something that started quite the buzz online.

Just this month, the gymnastics star was named the Laureus Sportswoman of the Year for the third time. The award was much-deserved, as Biles won five gold medals, including a record fifth all-around title, at the 2019 world championships in Stuttgart, making her the most decorated gymnast ever at worlds with 25 medals.

We look forward to seeing what this sports Phenom has up her sleeve. We are covering her with lots of prayer and well-wishes!
