“I’m just excited because I think it’ll be pretty cool having the skill being named,” Lee had told the Olympics before the 2024 Winter Cup while talking about her biggest trick, full-twisting Jaeger. That dream is going to be a dream now. On March 20, 2025, a video went viral from the 2025 Antalya World Cup Artistic Gymnastics qualification round where Chinese gymnast Yang Fanyuwei was seen executing a full-twisting Jaeger on the uneven bars. Now since this was done at a major international competition, the skill is named after her. and Lee has hinted at retirement.
A tweet, posted on March 20, 2025, talked about how Yang Fanyuwei has completed the full-twisting Jaeger on the uneven bars. The very same skill that Suni Lee brought to the 2024 Winter Cup, and the fans hoped that it would be named ‘The Lee.’ That didn’t happen, and the fan replied to the tweet with, “does this kill sunis chances of coming back .” Suni took notice of the tweet and replied with just one word, “yes.”
