Suni Lee was one of the breakout stars of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, winning the gold medal in the all-around gymnastics competition.
She also earned a silver in the team competition and a bronze in the uneven bars. This past season, the now-Auburn star earned a gold medal at the NCAA Championships in the balance beam and a silver in the all-around.
On Friday, the Minnesota native was back in her home state, and she added some flair to her first pitch for the Minnesota Twins. As you can see below, she did a flip during her windup:

Lee will be returning to Auburn this upcoming season. We’ll see if she can lead Auburn to another impressive gymnastics season.
