Simone Biles is undoubtedly one of the greatest gymnasts modern gymnastics has ever seen. However, there have been cases where the gymnastics sensation has been apprehensive of her skills.

In her autobiography 'Courage to Soar', published in 2017, Biles recounted an incident, when an attempt to perform a move during the balance beam made her almost quit the discipline altogether. Biles wrote:

"My trouble with this skill was the same old story—a bad experience had made me afraid of the move. Here’s what happened: One day when one of my other coaches at Bannon’s was spotting me on bars, I threw my body into the motion for the Tkatchev, getting ready to sail backward over the bar, but at the last second, I didn’t release the bar. I ended up backbending on the bar, and next thing I knew, I was spinning around on my neck and flying off the apparatus."

Though she didn't get any serious injuries, but Simone Biles became terrified of the Tkatchev move. Biles further mentioned that it was because of former gymnast Lexie Priessman, that the 27-year-old gymnast eventually managed to overcome her fears.
