What to Know About Gymnast Sunisa Lee, Team USA's 5th Straight Olympic All-Around Champ

Lee is part of the Hmong American community (her parents are from Laos), and she has spoken about how meaningful it is to be able to represent her community on this scale. "My motivation to get to the Olympics has always been my family and my community," she told The New York Times. "It would be such a big deal for a Hmong American to be in the Olympics for the United States. I want to be one of the best in the world, but I also want to succeed for my family — we have a really big Hmong family — and the amazing supporters that have helped me. I want to do it because a lot of people don't know that I'm Hmong or what Hmong even is."
