Three-time Olympics gold medal-winning gymnast Alexandra Raisman, 23, has revealed that her US teammates have nicknamed her grandma given her love for sleep.

"My teammates all joke, they call me 'grandma' because I love my sleep so much," the self-proclaimed professional sleeper was quoted as saying by People magazine.

Currently, Raisman's precious sleep schedule has been impacted due to her involvement in the making of her autobiography, Fierce, which captures some not-so-glamorous moments of her life.

"People tune in once every four years to watch the gymnastics but they don't get to see all the hard moments," says Raisman, who claims to have a fixed night time routine to ensure she gets good sleep.
