Before Mike Tirico returned to his role as NBC’s lead NFL announcer this fall, he spent a few weeks as the network’s prime-time host for the Paris Olympics. It was there that Simone Biles left quite the impression on him.

Simone Biles may be the G.O.A.T. of women's gymnastics, but she is not done mastering new skills. The Olympic gold medalist shared that she learned a new move while practicing for her upcoming performances during the Gold Over America Tour.

The star went on to express her excitement for the Gold Over American Tour (aka G.O.A.T., in a nod to Biles' nickname), which kicks off on Sept. 16 in Oceanside, Calif. “I’m very excited about the tour and I think having this time off helped me prepare — mentally and physically,” she told PEOPLE.

Biles, Jade Carey, Stephen Nedoroscik, Fred Richard, Paul Juda, and Brody Malone are among the big name gymnasts participating in the G.O.A.T. event
