Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles delivered another standout performance over the weekend, sweeping all four events to help UCLA secure its first major win of the college gymnastics season.
On Saturday (January 3), UCLA announced that Chiles placed first on vault, uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise, finishing with an all-around score of 39.725at the Best of the West Quad meet at the University of Washington.
The 24-year-old senior and Olympic gold medalist went viral for her floor exercise, which earned a near-perfect score of 9.925.
“Jordan Chiles’ new floor routine for 2026 will absolutely remind you that she is still 100% THAT GIRL — Olympic gold medalist, NCAA champion, and Dancing with the Stars finalist!” UCLA Gymnastics captioned a video of the routine.
Chiles’ dominant showing helped UCLA top the field in the early-season quad meet, marking a strong start for the Bruins in the college gymnastics season.
A two-time Olympic team medalist, Chiles won gold with Team USA at the Tokyo 2020 Games and silver at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Chiles initially earned an individual bronze medal in the floor exercise in Paris, though that medal was later revoked following a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
Chiles is now back to dominating at the collegiate level after her showing on the latest season of Dancing With the Stars.
