Olivia Dunne has consistently proven she is here to stay. Livvy is a current standout for the LSU Tigers women’s gymnastics team. But she also stands out, as she is the highest-paid women’s college athlete in America. Her influence extends beyond the gymnastics mat. Dunne is an online star, and her social media following boasts over 10 million devoted fans. This has garnered endorsement deals worth nearly seven figures.

This year, Livvy once again proved her mettle, even graced the covers of prestigious magazines like Elle and Sports Illustrated, and achieved a coveted spot on the Forbes Top 50 Creators list. This year is also special as she returns to her alma mater, LSU, as a senior. However, she has hinted that this chapter could be the last of her illustrious gymnastics career. In a recent update from LSU senior Dunne on her final run with the Tigers, she took a bold stance for her gymnastics team.

Livvy recently shared an exciting update with her 1.95 million subscribers on Snapchat. In a captivating post, she revealed tickets that read “LSU Tiger Spotters Gymnastics Booster Club”. She also captioned the image with the words “Be there or be squared.” What was surprising was the 2024 schedule of the LSU gymnastics team printed on the cards, starting from January 5th at Ohio State right up to March 23rd at the SEC Championships.

It’s a golden opportunity for fans and probably the last time to catch a glimpse of the star, which is why Livvy made the bold statement that if people missed the chance, they would miss out on seeing her one last time. This news comes after the tumultuous previous season that Livvy had marked with many challenges.

Last season’s struggles and her determination for the final chapter

The NCAA Championship Finals 2023 were held earlier this year. The gymnastics team of the LSU Tigers secured the fourth spot. At the time, Dunne was also seen celebrating with her team. However, this came as a surprise because she was absent for the ’22?’23 season. Livvy had faced a series of injuries, which included two torn labrums, torn biceps, and even an injury to her leg. Facing these challenges head-on, she finally made her debut against Alabama on the 24th of February, scoring an impressive 9.825 on the uneven bar’s apparatus.
