Following two days of fierce competition at the U.S. Olympic squad Trials, the women's squad for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris was revealed Sunday.

Olivia Dunne recently spoke on her future in gymnastics

Olivia Dunne's future is uncertain after capturing LSU's first NCAA gymnastics title. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the four-year-old senior has one year until she may return to LSU for her fifth-year eligibility. In an interview, she stated that she would not pursue the Olympics while still considering returning to LSU.

“So I do have eligibility for a fifth year, which I haven’t decided yet,” Dunne told The NY Post. She further stated, “I am thinking about it… But I do have eligibility (for another year at LSU).”

Dunne continued, “I don’t think I’m going to try for the Olympics or anything after, since I once competed for Team USA, and I closed that chapter and went to LSU.”

Dunne also added, “The national championship, that was obviously the end goal. That was the cherry on top of my senior year. It’s just so cool to be able to make history like with my whole team.”

However, her off-field life has been hectic over the previous several months. Olivia Dunne was featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 60th anniversary edition, signed a NIL contract with content monetization platform Passes, cheered on her boyfriend Paul Skenes' MLB debut at PNC Park, and participated in promotional events for businesses with which she is involved.
Her gymnastics future is now undetermined, but LSU hopes Livvy will return.
