Suni Lee is in the market and has her checklist ready to go.
The two-time Olympic gold medalist went on the “HAHA Podcast” earlier this month when the topic of her dating life — as well as men slipping into her direct messages — came up.
“I think it’s really funny. Sometimes I can’t tell if it’s just like a joke or if they’re real, but it’s really funny to me. Honestly, I’ve seen so many videos, so if you think I haven’t seen it, I’ve seen it,” Lee said on the show.

When asked what her type was, she quickly replied “athletes.” Lee was once rumored to have dated New York Knicks player OG Anunoby after they were photographed at a game, but she later confirmed that they were “just friends.”
Lee is also not for immature men.
“I like a very emotionally intelligent man because I feel like a lot of the guys that I’ve liked or talked to or encountered, they always just end up being so immature. I’m like, ‘You’re five or six years older than me and you act like a kid. I act older than you and I’m 22.'”

“I like a funny guy, or someone who is very caring, not only with me but the people around me,” Lee added. “If we go out and you’re only worried about me, I’ll be mad because I need you to take care of me and all my friends.”
Lee also said that the biggest age difference she would have is five years older than her.

Lee won a gold medal at both the Tokyo and Paris Olympics – the 2021 gold came in the all-around, while she won gold last year in the team event. She also has one silver and three bronze medals, two of which were won in Paris last summer.
