Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles helped secure the first major win of the season for UCLA over the weekend and stunned fans in all four gymnastics events, including an impressive,near-perfect floor routine.

The "Dancing with the Stars" finalist dominated in the Best of the West Quad at the University of Washington, placing first on all four events – vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise – for an all-around score of 39.725, UCLA announced Saturday.

The 24-year-old senior and Olympic gold medalist quickly captured the attention of fans worldwide with her floor routine, which earned a score of 9.925.

The Bruins posted a video clip of her full performance with the caption, "Jordan Chiles' new floor routine for 2026 will absolutely remind you that she is still 100% THAT GIRL – Olympic gold medalist, NCAA champion and #dwts finalist!"

"Can't believe we get a whole season of this," USA Gymnastics commented with a starry eyed emoji.
