MyKayla Skinner, Simone Biles address concerns, changes ahead of U.S. camp
Associated Press (via ESPN)
Measuring any progress is tricky. The organization that long served as the gold standard for the U.S. Olympic movement has lost the benefit of the doubt. Even as it tries to prove how it has evolved over the past three years, the reality is things remain complicated.Two coaches currently under investigation by U.S. SafeSport attended the camp with their athletes this week. Mediators are still trying to work through the bankruptcy petition USA Gymnastics filed in 2018 as a last-ditch effort to avoid decertification by the USOPC. Nassar survivors continue to call for the organization's dissolution. Money is tight as sponsors wait for the legal process to play out.
All of which leaves the young women vying for an Olympic spot in an awkward position.
