A few professional athletes will take to the dance floor in the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars, which begins on Tuesday, Sept. 17.

Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik, who went viral for his iconic pommel horse routine, was previously announced as a cast member for Season 33. His routine helped Team USA men's gymnastics take home a bronze medal, which was their first medal in team competition since 2008.

He will be joined by another Olympian, rugby breakout star Ilona Maher. She's coming off a bronze medal win in Paris, which was the first time Team USA took home a medal in rugby. She was also Sports Illustrated Swimsuit's cover model for the digital September issue.
