Shortly after the Summer Olympics, she suffered a meniscus tear and was forced to undergo knee surgery with a long rehabilitation period. She could not participate at the 2017 World Championships. Due to many setbacks she had, she lost motivation and retired from gymnastics in December 2017 at the age of 19 years old.[6]
