Canqueteau-Landi also coached 2016 Olympian Madison Kocian and 2020 Olympian Jordan Chiles.
Georgia made its intentions to climb back to its former place atop gymnastics crystal clear with the splashy hire of Simone Biles’ personal coach Cecile Canqueteau-Landi, who has worked with Biles alongside her husband Laurent Landi since 2017 and also coached 2016 Olympic gold medalist Madison Kocian. Canqueteau-Landi will serve as the GymDogs’ co-head coach with Ryan Roberts, who has been with the program as an assistant over the last two seasons, the team announced Thursday.
Kupets-Carter is a two-time 2004 Olympic medalist and former GymDogs star who found success in recruiting athletes to Athens but struggled to mold the GymDogs into a championship-caliber team. As the only team to boast 10 NCAA titles, the program is among the most decorated in collegiate gymnastics. Georgia hasn’t reached that same level of success since program-builder Suzanne Yoculan retired in 2009, the same year the Bulldogs claimed their last title.
