USA Gymnastics to expand its partnership with Nike, a sign it's gaining trust in the post-Nassar era

USA Gymnastics and Nike have reached an agreement on a sponsorship deal that will carry through the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. USA Gymnastics president Li Li Leung says the deal is a byproduct of the positive changes that the organization has made in the wake of the Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal. Corporate support for USA Gymnastics waned after athletes abused by the former national team doctor began coming forward starting in 2016. While Leung stressed more work needs to be done, she believes the agreement with Nike is proof USA Gymnastics has started to earn back trust at the corporate level.
