A crowd-pleasing routine full of hip-swinging moves to the music of 'Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps' included her trademark element, a soaring double layout with half twist at the end.
Three days after uncharacteristically stepping out of bounds following one of her tumbling passes in the all-around final, Biles avoided any such mistakes to draw a winning score of 15.800.
While Biles celebrated taking her gold medal haul at the worlds to 10 -- having added four in Glasgow with victories in the team, all-around, balance beam and floor -- Russia's Ksenia Afanaseva captured silver (15.100) and American Maggie Nicols took bronze.
