Suni Lee is a star in the gymnastics world. The hard-working Lee is known for the moment she stepped up when it mattered most. At the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, she filled in for Simone Biles as she stepped up for Team USA, and together the girls took home the silver medal. She also won the women’s individual all-around gold and became the first Hmong-American Olympian. Since then, Sunisa Lee has made a place in the hearts of millions of gymnastics fans. Later in 2021, Lee joined the Auburn War Eagles and has since made her alma mater proud.

However, in late 2022, citing her kidney-related health issues, she decided to end her NCAA career abruptly. This health issue has persisted, and she even withdrew from participating at the 2023 World Championships and Pan American Games. And now, in the latest news from Suni, she has sent a 2-word message to her Auburn successor.
