USA Gymnastics chief executive Kerry Perry has resigned after just nine months, a statement said Tuesday, dealing another blow to the embattled governing body as it struggles to rebuild after the Larry Nassar sexual abuse scandal. “USA Gymnastics President and CEO Kerry Perry last evening informed the board of directors that she will resign effectively immediately,” a statement from the USA Gymnastics board said. Perry’s departure caps a tumultuous week for the scandal-tainted gymnastics organisation following the appointment and subsequent resignation of elite coach Mary Lee Tracy.
