Suni Lee Returns to Home Gym to Begin Measured Comeback for LA 2028

Her move signals a gradual, health-focused rebuild with trusted coaches as she aims to earn a Team USA spot for the Los Angeles Games.

Overview

  • Lee resumed in-person training at Midwest Gymnastics in Little Canada, marking her first official day back on the gym floor Monday after announcing her intent to pursue the 2028 Olympics.
  • She has reunited with longtime coach Jess Graba and welcomed the return of Jeff Graba to the coaching staff, creating the familiar support team she called family.
  • Coaches and Lee say the comeback is being paced because she competed in Paris while managing a 2023 kidney condition and was operating below full capacity during those Games.
  • The plan is a staged buildup toward competition with the U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Trials in June 2028 in Louisville serving as the selection milestone for Los Angeles.
  • Lee’s return could reshape veteran roster talks and will be followed closely by a Fanatics Studios documentary that is reportedly tracking her recovery, training and personal reinvention.
