Rhonda Faehn Biography

Rhonda Faehn is one of the most popular and richest Athlete who was born on April 28, 1971 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. Faehn was conceived in Minneapolis, Minnesota on 28 April 1971. She married Jeremy Bayon in June 2006. He was a French tennis player and assistant coach for Florida Gators’ men’s tennis team. They have two sons, Noah (the husband) and Isaiah (the wife). The family lives in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Before joining Florida as a coach, she was a coach at the University of Maryland 1997-1998 and the University of Nebraska 1999-2002. From 1992 to 1994, she was also a student assistant at UCLA.

On May 11, 2015, Faehn was hired as the Senior Vice President of the Women’s Program at USA Gymnastics. Shortly after she was hired, she was informed by Sarah Jantzi of Twin City Twisters of a report of “uncomfortable” medical treatments administered by Larry Nassar on a national team athlete. According to her, she immediately reported this incident to Steve Penny, who informed her that he would contact law enforcement, but did not do so for another 5 weeks. This incident was one of the key events of the USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal. She was dismissed from USA Gymnastics on May 18, 2018.

As of May 2019, she has been coaching at Waverley Gymnastics Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

She placed seventh in the 1988 Olympic Trials, and was designated the alternate to the U.S. Olympic Team. Even though she did not compete in the Olympic events, her presence caused controversy that cost the U.S. bronze medal. Faehn was allowed to remain on the podium as an alternate after Kelly Garrison-Steves removed the springboard used by Faehn to mount the uneven bars. The Code of Points rule prohibits coaches from being on the podium while an athlete competes. Faehn wasn’t a coach but Ellen Berger, an East German judge, invoked the Code of Points rule to penalize the Americans by five- tenths. This caused them to finish fourth after East Germany and eliminated them from medal contention.
