Olivia Dunne has no plans to go to Olympics Gymnastics
Olivia Dunne was merely 15 or 16 years old when she suffered a difficult time owing to an ankle injury that resulted in a fracture. This is the same time when the 21-year-old decided not to pursue gymnastics any further.
Dunne said (via Clutch Points.): “That dream has died. Well, I got hurt when I was about, I think, 15 or 16 years old; my bone had like died in my ankle, and it fractured, so I kind of realized maybe this is not for me anymore, and maybe I should just go to college and be healthy and happy.”
It is important to note that Dunne has one more year of eligibility to compete at LSU. However, she has yet to decide whether she will opt for it, although she has her eyes set on the National Championship with her team. As for her future goals, Dunne admitted that she has not decided anything as she has one more year to do so.
