Suni Lee was diagnosed with a kidney disorder last year that left her at times unable to even bend her legs or squeeze her fingers together.WASHINGTON — Olympic gymnastics all-around champion Suni Lee revealed that at the height of dealing with a kidney disease last year, she retained 45 pounds in water weight that made her question whether a return to top form was even possible.“I could not bend my legs the slightest, I couldn’t squeeze my fingers, my face was swollen,” Lee said.
On to Auburn University she went, but she left the Tigers upon falling ill after her sophomore season last year. She was never a sure thing to come back for Paris, but now she's expected to make the U.S. team, along with Biles, who is coming back as well. Lee is working on a new bars move that, if she pulls it off in an international competition, could be named after her in the sport's Code of Points.
