In conversations about young millionaires in the world of sports, Olivia Dunne and Kayla Simmons are two people who are commonly mentioned. Both female athletes have managed to amass a healthy fortune at a very young age. Being mega-successful college sportswomen, their prosperity has caught the eye of fans all around the world.

Olivia Dunne is a 20-year-old gymnast who earned an athletic scholarship to LSU and since then has represented her college at gymnastics events.

Olivia Dunne and Kayla Simmons: Their rise to success

When NCAA athletes were allowed to monetize on their NIL- Name, Image, and Likeness, the entire climate of college athletics transformed completely. Earlier, when college-level sportspersons could not make money off of their popularity and fame, they’d forfeit their amateur status and thus, their NCAA eligibility. Now, even college athletes can sign endorsement deals, which is how Olivia Dunne has earned most of her money.

Dunne, who has been a gymnast since she was 3, earned a full scholarship with LSU in 2019 and became a part of the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She has participated in gymnastics events on the national and state levels. At 11 years old, she became the youngest USA International Elite gymnast and won gold with the USA Junior National Team in 2017. What really made her popular though, was her TikTok fame. Currently, Olivia Dunne is worth $3.3 million with 7.4 million followers on TikTok and 4.1 million followers on Instagram. Kayla Simmons, on the other hand, used to be a master volleyball player.
