Christine "Peng Peng" Lee has signed to compete for UCLA beginning in the 2012-2013 season. She competes many unique gymnastics moves including her flare mount on balance beam.
Peng Peng competed at the 2007 Pan American Games and at the Junior Pan Am Championships where she placed 4th in the All Around. In 2008, she claimed the Beam and Floor titles at the Canadian National Championships. She previously trained at the now-closed Sport Seneca. A back injury kept her out of competition for approximately two years, whereupon she resumed gymnastics at Oakville Gymnastics under coach Kelly Manjak. In early 2011, Peng Peng endured another set back with a knee injury. Lee recovered in time to be named as a member of the 2011 Canadian Women's World Team and qualified to the all around final.
In 2012, she won the all around at the International Gymnix Challenge in Montreal. At the Pac Rim Championships, Peng Peng was a member of the bronze medal winning Canadian team. She also won bronze in the all around, fourth on bars, and silver on beam and floor. Lee injured her knee during podium training at the Canadian Championships. Although she was a very strong contender to be named to the Canadian Olympic team, Peng Peng withdrew from the selection process due to her torn ACL. To support her teammates, Peng Peng traveled to London and was named as their honorary team captain.
