Today we are joined by fan favorite Ondine Achampong, a World and European medalist for Great Britain who was a favorite to make the Paris Olympic team before an ACL injury took her out of contention just three months before the Games. Ondine shocked the gymnastics world last season when she worked her way into Cal’s beam lineup around 10 months after tearing her ACL—an injury that takes most gymnasts at least a year to recover from. Now, heading into her sophomore season, she’s ready to take on an even bigger role for a young and relatively inexperienced Cal team.

In this episode, Ondine shares more about her recovery journey, how she handled the uncertainty of the offseason with so many changes, what led her to stay at Cal, and whether a return to elite gymnastics might be in her future.
