Mykayla Skinner is clarifying her comments that caused controversy within Team USA. After a controversial YouTube video, the retired Olympic gymnast issued an apology, explaining that her remarks were not directed towards the current team but rather her own experiences in the sport. She expressed pride and support for the current team members while highlighting differences in work ethic compared to her time with former national team coordinator Márta Károlyi. Skinner emphasized that her intention was not to defend Károlyi's practices but to highlight the contrast in training methods. The 27-year-old's transparency and willingness to address the situation head-on demonstrates her commitment to the sport and her respect for her fellow gymnasts.
