Konnor McClain, 17, stunned the world with her spectacular appearance on Sunday night and earned the coveted US championship. Konnor boosted her status and drew the world's attention when she reached a combined score of 112.750 over two nights of competition. Konnor has been a gymnast since she was 18 months old and has her sights on the 2024 Olympics. However, the 17-year-old had to learn how to strike balance between family, grief, and gymnastics before her rise to fame; her father, Marc (pictured inset with Konnor and her brother), died in December from COVID-19, and her grandmother died in the same week. The gymnast is improving her routine in the hopes of securing the top all-around gymnast in the world championships this fall.
