At her Olympic debut in Tokyo, then-18-year-old Suni Lee made history as the first Asian American to win the Olympic all-around title — continuing the United States' golden-streak in the event which started with Carly Patterson back in 2004. The Minnesota native left Tokyo with the full medal collection thanks to a silver in the team competition and a bronze on the uneven bars in addition to her all-around gold, but perhaps still has some unfinished business in the sport.
Despite being diagnosed with kidney disease in 2023, Lee battled her way back to earn a spot on her second U.S. Olympic team with a chance to bring home some more hardware in Paris.
In the qualification round on July 28, Lee's scores earned her spots in three finals: the all-around as well as the uneven bars and balance beam event finals. She and the U.S. women were also the top qualifiers into the women's team final.

Are Suni Lee and Simone Biles friends as well as teammates?
As well as being teammates since 2016, Suni Lee and Simone Biles have developed a tight-knit bond off the mat.
After a disappointing performance in her opening vault at the Olympic Trials in June, Lee disappeared into one of the tunnels in the venue to re-center herself before her next event. Biles followed her into the tunnel and offered her support and encouragement.
“[Biles] knew that I needed help in the moment,” Lee told NBC Sports after the incident. “She out of anyone understands, basically, what I did on vault. So she just came over to see if I was OK and basically just helped boost me up and get my confidence back up because, at that point, I was kind of thinking that this was over. So it was really nice to have her in my corner ... I don’t think I could have done it without her."
