Gymnastics: Suni Lee earns bronze on uneven bars

Suni Lee won bronze in the uneven bars on Sunday, the same event in which she won bronze in Tokyo.

Algeria’s Kaylia Nemour won gold and China’s Qiu Qiyuan earned silver. Nemour won Algeria’s first gold in gymnastics.

Lee’s bronze in the uneven bars is her third medal in Paris (she has won gold in team and bronze in the all-around). 

This is Lee’s sixth career Olympic medal, tying her for the third-most Olympic medals by a female American gymnast. Lee is now tied at six with Aly Raisman and behind only Simone Biles (10) and Shannon Miller, who has seven.

Lee will also compete in the beam final on Monday alongside Biles.
