Fans were quick to bestow their love on Suni Lee as the Olympic gold medalist participated in the podium training ahead of the 2024 U.S. Xfinity U.S. Championships. Lee will be seen competing in the all-around event at the championships held at the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas from May 30 to June 2, 2024.

Lee will face other elite gymnasts in the all-around event for the first time in the 2024 Olympic year after competing at the 2024 U.S. Core Hydration Classic on May 18, in Hartford, Connecticut. The 21-year-old competed in three events, including floor exercise, balance beam, and vault.

Lee petitioned to compete in all-around at the Xfinity U.S. Championships after remaining absent from the uneven bars. A day before the championships, the USA Gymnastics shared a glimpse of Lee performing an element on the balance beam, where she is seen gracefully leaping in the air, and captioned:

"Suni Lee? More like Suni Leap."

Fans who are poised to witness the all-around performance by the beloved gymnast praises her in the comments section as one of them wrote,

"This gorgeous woman 🥰 such a champion always and forever."
"There’s no one like her 😭"

A look at Suni Lee's performance so far in the 2024 Olympic year

Suni Lee returned to the gymnastics mat after her recovery from kidney issues at the 2024 Winter Cup, held in February at the Kentucky International Convention Center in Louisville.

Lee aimed to get a full-twisting laid-out Jaeger element on the uneven bars named after her. However, her performance was met with much disappointment after she stumbled twice on the bars and once on the balance beam.

Later, the American gymnast competed at the 2024 U.S. Core Hydration Classic, the final qualifying event for the 2024 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships. Suni Lee collected 13.150 points in the vault, 14.600 points in the balance beam, and 13.000 points in the floor routine.

The Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships is the last step before the 2024 U.S. Olympic Trials.
