USA Gymnastics is entering a new era both on and off the floor as the US championships begin
August 7, 2025
A new wave of gymnasts are ready to step into the spotlight at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships. The absence of superstars like Simone Biles and Sunisa Lee has opened the door for a large group of teenagers to take center stage as the organization begins to build toward the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. USA Gymnastics isn’t just changing on the floor, but off it, too. President and CEO Li Li Leung, who deftly guided the organization out of the Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal, is stepping down at the end of the year. Leung called the decision bittersweet with only three years to go until the opening ceremony in Los Angeles.
