Teammate and fellow gold medalist Aly Raisman also makes her debut with Biles in the magazine's 2017 edition. Both gymnasts donned sleek black swimsuits, with Biles posed upside-down, masterfully holding a handstand, and Raisman draped over a bench.
Photographer James Macari shot the gymnasts at the World Champions Center in Spring, the North Houston Skate Park and the Lillie and Hugh Roy Cullen Sculpture Garden, also in Houston.
