Olivia Dunne, a great gymnast for LSU, demonstrated that there is never a true offseason in the sport when she needed to be adaptable for a move on the beach over the Memorial Day break.

The TikTok user from New Jersey, who has more than 7.4 million followers, shared one of her most recent videos while wearing a black bikini. Dunne impressively backflipped off a rock.

In a video that was uploaded on the magazine’s Instagram page, Dunne remarked, “Being a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model is a dream come true.” “I feel like a lot of young girls follow Sports Illustrated, and there are a lot of young girls who look up to me,” she said. Therefore, I believe that both of our brands are complementary since we both hope to motivate the next generation.

According to On3 Sports, Dunne is one of the collegiate players with the highest NIL ratings. She also discussed being at the forefront of the NIL craze in an interview with Sports Illustrated.

“As a woman, no one really expected a gymnast to be at the forefront of (name, image, and likeness deals),” the athlete told the journal. Most observers anticipated basketball, baseball, and football. Being a woman in the forefront and working to level the playing field is unquestionably a positive move.

Younger women were made aware by Dunne that “you are more than just your sport.”
