The LSU star and one of America’s most media-savvy athletes drew criticism for her call for more maximum scores. But she promises she has the sport’s best interests at heart
Livvy Dunne is worried about the future of women’s college gymnastics. The NIL powerhouse, who has scored major brand deals with Vuori and American Eagle, among others, has started her final season with the national champion LSU Tigers. But she’s made the biggest splash in this young season on social media by posting on X over her concerns over the popularity of gymnastics.

People understand what a perfect 10 is and want people who do things that look great to be rewarded.”
