For Biles, Tuesday's gold medal marks her eighth Olympic medal overall. This makes her the most decorated Olympic gymnast in US history, as she surpassed "Magnificent Seven" star Shannon Miller for most career Olympic medals. Miller also won an individual gold in balance beam that year, which made up her only two Olympic gold medals. But Biles' Olympic gold medal total is now up to five. Former track and field athlete Allyson Felix is the only non-swimmer American woman who has more Olympic medals than Biles with 11.
