Kyla Ross, the youngest member of the 2012 U.S. Olympic champion team, has retired from elite gymnastics, according to her social media.
“This has been one of the most difficult decisions I have made in my life, but I feel that my time as an elite gymnast has come to an end,” Ross said on Twitter and Instagram.
Ross, then 15, made the 2012 U.S. Olympic team in her first year as a senior gymnast. She was the youngest U.S. Olympic gymnast since 1996.
She was the only U.S. woman to make all of the 2012 Olympic, 2013 Worlds and 2014 Worlds teams.
