OLYMPIC GALLERY: U.S. gymnast Suni Lee makes history while competing in individual all-around

Suni Lee competed against teammate Simone Biles for individual all-around to defend her title.

This is the first time two gold medalists are competing against each other in this event.

When Lee won the individual all-around gold medal in Tokyo, she became the first Hmong-American and Asian woman to win the title.
