Simone Biles had an error moment on day 7 of the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships

Biles at Day Seven - 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships

Simone Biles displayed supremely impressive skills in the four apparatuses that she performed in. Despite having the Yurchenko double pike vault named internationally as Biles II, she attempted to perform an even better vault at the all-around event. The gymnast’s vault on Friday earned her a total of 15.1 points - 5.6 for difficulty and 9.5 for execution.

She was equally at her best in the uneven bars and balance beam, where she scored 14.333 and 14.433, respectively.

Although the first three apparatuses went smoothly for the legendary gymnast, she experienced a slight jerk in the floor routine. While performing a precise and breath-taking tumble, Biles experienced a small stumble.

The error moment got a few seconds of shock on her face. However, she immediately switched to a beaming smile as she quickly got things in her control. Fortunately, the stumble did not hinder Simone Biles from winning her sixth all-around title at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.
