PARIS — After winning gold in 2012 and 2016, the United States women’s gymnastics team took silver in the team competition at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. It’s a result that remains front of mind for a group that is returning four of five members at this year’s Summer Games in Paris.
“We really want a team gold,” Suni Lee said. “This is the same team, basically, as 2020, so it’s kind of like a redemption tour.”
The Americans are the favorites to win that gold, in part because of the talent and depth of their team and in part because the team that did beat them in Tokyo won’t be in Paris.
