The 18-year-old gymnastics superstar, Suni Lee, is not showing any signs of slowing down anytime soon.?Lee started doing gymnastics at the young age of 6 and has never looked back since then. In the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she became the all-around champion. After her banging victory at the Summer Olympics, the Minnesota teen has set her next goal. Lee joined the U.S reality show “Dancing with the Stars” with her partner, Sasha Farber. Despite being one of the best duos, Lee?s sickness had deteriorated their performances. However, on Monday, the duo made a comeback, scoring a perfect 10. WHAT A COMEBACK FROM SUNI LEE! Lee’s health has been bad for the past few days, which resulted in unsatisfactory performances for the American. It was a rough week for the duo. They missed a lot of rehearsals and could not join everyone for the relay dance. Suni lee [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/suni-lee.jpg] Prior to their first dance in the show, Lee had an urge to throw up but somehow managed to control and give her best in the performance. Her partner Sasha revealed how difficult the last week has been for Lee. Managing her health as well as the show was adding up to the pile of stress she already had. Nonetheless, on Monday, November 8, Lee and Sasha made a grand comeback to Janet Jackson?s ?All For You? presenting Samba. It seems that overcoming the difficulties in her way catalyzed a better performance. The duo received a perfect score, showing off their confidence through their dance. Just a day before, Lee had taken to Instagram to flaunt her new hairstyle. Fans took that as a signal for a great comeback and Lee surely did not disappoint them! A little while back, Lee spoke about her tiring and strenuous life. The college fresher has a lot on her plate and was having a really hard time balancing her life. But Suni Lee has stood up to the challenge and proved herself worthy of praise. “MORE EMBARRASSED THAN ANYTHING” – LEE TALKS ABOUT THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS ?Last week was rough. I literally ran off the stage on live TV. When I was backstage, I was more embarrassed than anything but I was not about to throw up on national TV,? said [https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/dwts-suni-lee-gives-health-update-talks-social-media-hate/] Lee before her comeback performance. She further mentioned receiving a lot of negative and depressing comments on social media. The fact that she was unwell and could not perform not only affected her physically but mentally as well. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/suni-lee-2.jpg] ?I let them get to me,? she accepted and added that she would have felt much better if she didn?t. Lee seems to have learnt from her difficult period and is back stronger for it. The other competitors should now keep their eye out for Suni Lee as she is back with a bang.

Gymnastics is a collection of physical exercises requiring a lot of strength, agility, balance, and flexibility. It is closely related to circus performing skills as athletes put their bodies to the fullest use. Likewise, there are various disciplines for gymnasts to showcase their talents. Thus, it evolved from ancient Greeks that included skills to mounting to dismounting a horse. The competitive form of gymnastics is called artistic gymnastics. It involves various events for women like the floor, vault, uneven bars, and the beam. For men, they have floor, vault, rings, pommel horse, parallel bars, and horizontal bars. Therefore, the sport is famous for its aesthetic values and the Olympics draws major crowds to the gymnastics arena.

<h3>History of Gymnastics</h3>
Gymnastics originated from the Greek term, 'to exercise naked,' applied in ancient Greece exercises. These exercises became a mainstay at the Olympics but most of the competition came from ancient roots. There are stone engravings found in Shandong province during <a href="https://www.britannica.com/sports/gymnastics/Gymnasts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Han Period</a> (206?<span class="text-smallcaps">BCE</span>?220?<span class="text-smallcaps">CE) where they portrayed acrobatics. Like every sport, the person credited for making the sport famous was Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, founder of the Turnverein movement as he helped to spread gymnastics across the world. </span>

<span class="text-smallcaps">Most of the exercises were conducted on the playground. Therefore, various events came into existence. They held the first Gymnastics festival in 1860 in Coburg. The Americans were introduced to Gymnastics in the late 1820s while the Federation Internationale Gymnastique was founded in 1881 to organize the event. The 1896 Olympic Games saw the starting stages of gymnastics being introduced to the world.?</span>
<h3>The Sport</h3>
There are three divisions of artistic gymnastics- artistic, rhythmic, and trampoline. There are six <a href="https://completegymnastics.com/gymnastics-disciplines-explained/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">events</a> for men and the all around event where they combine scores from every discipline. For women, there are four exercises and a similar all around event, both team and individual events. Apart from artistic gymnastics, there is rhythmic gymnastics and is practiced only by women. Trampoline is the other discipline of gymnastics and introduced itself at the 2000 Olympic Games. As years pass by, various gymnasts showcased their athletic skills to the masses in attendance.

<h3>Famous gymnasts in the world</h3>
<strong>Simone Biles:</strong>

In terms of pure dominance, Simone Biles enters the list as arguably the greatest gymnast of all time. She is the <a href="https://www.rookieroad.com/gymnastics/top-6-best-womens-players-of-all-time/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">most decorated</a> gymnast in the World Championships, winning four gold, one silver, and two bronze medals. The 2016 Rio Olympics saw her winning four gold medals and completely dominated the events. She has 25 World Championships medals to her name and her stance on mental health helps her become an influential person in the society.

<strong>Larisa Latynina:</strong>

Winning nine gold medals at the Olympics is astonishing and Larisa Latynina ranks on top of the famous gymnast charts. After Michael Phelps, she has the most Olympic medals with 18. She popularized the sport of gymnastics and was the first star in the sport. Her iconic performances will go down to the gymnastics folklore.

<strong>Nadia Comaneci:</strong>

Achieving a perfect 10.0 score in gymnastics is amazing. But, doing it at the Olympics, when just turning 14, placed Nadia Comaneci amongst the pantheon of greats. The 1976 Olympics saw her earning seven perfect scores. She won five Olympic gold medals out of the nine she won.

<strong>Svetlana Khorkina:</strong>

With a total of 47 Olympic, World and European Championships medals, Svetlana Khorkina is a remarkable gymnast. She became the first gymnast to win three all-around titles at the World Championships while winning five gold medals in the uneven bars at World Championships. Her success in the uneven bars earned her the moniker 'The Queen of Bars.'

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>Suni Lee: 2024 net worth, stats, salary, and more</b></h2>
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2617432 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/image-1080x1080-2024-02-06T103040.582-1-315x315.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="315" />
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Sunisa Lee, aka Suni Lee? </b></h2>
Sunisa Lee a.k.a. Suni Lee is a Hmong American artistic gymnast. She is the 2020 Olympic all-around champion and uneven bars bronze medalist.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Suni Lee’s early life</b></h2>
Suni Lee was born on 9th March 2003 in Saint Paul, Minnesota. She was raised by her mother, Yeev Thoj, and her mom's longtime partner John Lee. However, not much is known about Suni's biological father. Her mother is a refugee who immigrated to the US from Laos as a child. Suni was raised by her mother and her longtime partner John Lee since she was two. She has three half-siblings - Evionn, Lucky, and Noah.

At six years old, Lee started gymnastics at the Midwest Gymnastics Center in?Little Canada, Minnesota. The following year, Lee began competing and won the all-around at a state meet.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Suni Lee’s net worth in 2024</b></h2>
From all her earnings, medal victories, and salary, Suni Lee has an estimated net worth of $3 million. She earned $75,000 in earnings from Tokyo with her medal victories. Back after returning from Tokyo, she partnered with the Pearson+ app to boost her earnings. Hence, with all that in place, she could be making $100,000 in a jiffy. Then, she joined the Dancing With The Stars competition and earned a lot of wealth. According to reports, the DWTS contestants earn $125,000 in rehearsal and the first two weeks while the maximum they can earn is $295,000.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Suni Lee’s career timeline</b></h2>
Known for her skills at a very young age, Lee started competing in 2016 at the U.S. Classic. She attended Auburn University on a gymnastics scholarship and has been a regular there. After her successful career, she competed at the 2018 Pacific Rim Gymnastics Championships and won the gold medal in the team final competition while also claiming the silver medal for vault, balance beam, and floor exercise. Her breakthrough came at the 2019 US National Championships. After Simone Biles won most of the events, she claimed first place in the uneven bars event.

During that competition, she claimed the gold medal for uneven bars, the silver-medal in the all-around competition, and <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://usagym.org/pages/athletes/athleteListDetail.html?id=467541" target="_blank" rel="noopener">won </a>the bronze medal for the floor competitions. Due to her sensational performances in that competition, she earned herself a place with the US national gymnastics team. With Simone Biles withdrawing from the gymnastics competition, she took the opportunity to provide a sensational performance at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Winning medals were on her agenda as she won the gold medal for the all-around event and excited the gymnastics fraternity. Her graceful movements and incredible leaps were a sight to behold. Soon after, she won the silver medal for the team gymnastics competition while she only claimed bronze for her signature uneven bars competition. Her career has leapfrogged from there and is doing well in different competitions.

After her successful events in Tokyo, she took part in the famous Dancing With The Stars competition. Lee partnered Sasha Farber and showed promise in the competition, only to finish fifth in the end.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Sunisa Lee’s partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
In 2023, Suni Lee signed an NIL deal with Crocs as the footwear company hoped the involvement of the 2020 Olympian will help boost its sales. She also has deals with CLIF bar, Amazon, Gatorade, Invisalign and Target (among others), which make up a worth of reported $1.5 million. In 2022, On3 NIL had estimated that Lee could make $21,000 per post with her 3.5 million social media followers at the time. There have also been reports that she is potentially making $100,000 for each sponsored post.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>Suni Lee's gymnastics hiatus due to kidney problems </b></h2>
In April 2023, the gymnast announced that she will end her college career with Auburn early due to a kidney disease, She took to her Twitter handle and stated, "<em>I am blessed and thankful to be working with the best specialized medical team to treat and manage my diagnosis. My focus at this time is my health and recovery</em>". She further added, "<em>Auburn, thank you for the best two years of my life and for giving me the opportunity to make history alongside this amazing group. I am forever grateful for this community</em>".

"<em>I will not stop pursuing my dreams for a bid to Paris in 2024. In fact, this experience has sharpened my vision for the future</em>".
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><strong>Suni Lee's return to gymnastics</strong></h2>
Suni Lee has been teasing her fans with videos from the gym of her performing crazy tricks on several apparatuses. The former Auburn star was all smiles during her time on the competition floor at the U.S. Classics. The Hmong-American athlete showed her peak form by posting the beam event?s second-best score behind the legendary Simone Biles. But she managed to win the top score in the vault and earn the qualifying score for the two events in the World Championships.

It was a very emotional moment for her because she wasn?t sure of her body. She had not been able to train regularly because her kidney problems often left her feeling fatigued and in pain. On top of that, she had to carry the pressure of the expectations that come with being an Olympian. Despite these challenges, she pushed through and is still on track for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Suni Lee's relationship </b></h2>
The gymnast is currently in a relationship with American football line breaker Jaylin Smith. Though it is not known when and where the couple first met, Suni Lee made her relationship Instagram official in January 2022. Smith is a University of Southern California football player and plays for the Trojans. He also was a part of rapper Snoop Dogg's documentary, 'Coach Snoop'. It followed the lives of several athletes of Smith's age.
