At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, USA women’s gymnastics got its new star. After reigning all-around champion Simone Biles withdrew from the competition, Suni Lee stepped up. She performed exceptionally well and won gold in the all-around event. Lee also won a silver in the team event and a bronze on uneven bars. Over a year has passed since Lee’s monumental achievement, and athletes are looking forward to Paris 2024.

However, Suni is unsure if she wants to push to qualify for Paris. While talking to People magazine, the 19-year-old revealed her goals for the future.

Will team USA’s new star go to Paris?

In a recent conversation with People, Suni said, “I don’t know,” when asked about the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics. The gold medalist also said, “Yeah, I’m still making a decision.” However, Lee provided a slightly positive answer as well. She said, “I’m definitely starting to take it day by day, just trying to figure out what I want to do, and yeah, hopefully.” While the gold medalist is unsure about going to Paris, she is clear about one of her goals.

Lee is aware of this and is happy she made “a big impact on others.” She said, “I never really had somebody that looked like me, I guess, competing at the Olympics.”
