Nellie Kim, an Olympic champion from the former Soviet Union, got a 10 right after me in '76, but nobody talks about that.
I did gymnastics when I was a kid. I wasn't very good at it.
But let me do I will show the world what gymnastics looks like. Well may be this is a future gymnastics.
Of course, most people remember that I received the first perfect 10 in Olympic gymnastics competition.
I loved gymnastics. I was eager to compete. I was hungry to go out there and be the best in the world, and I had that determination.
Having the opportunity to go to the U.S. Olympics was great because I was the first Latina in over 30 years to compete in gymnastics at the Olympics.
There's nothing better than going out there and seeing USA on your leotard.
Definitely gymnastics, because I was a gymnast for 11 years. That's my thing. My girlfriend Betty Okino was in the 1992 Olympics and won a bronze medal. She's a gymnast. So I'm a huge fan.
I was a world champion on the trampoline at an international level, and gymnastics competitor.
Gymnastics has given me everything in my life. I will continue to stay involved and try to give back to the sport that has given me so much.
Gymnastics, especially in my family, is more than a sport. It's our life, it's our careers, it's our family business.
I started taking gymnastic classes when I was 3 years old.
At the end of the day, I just want to see good gymnastics!
I wish I could be good at gymnastics.
I want to bring more gymnastics on television.
I went to the University of Arizona on a full athletic scholarship for gymnastics, where I competed and got 9th in the nation at the NCAAs.
