Early life

Gymnastics career

[edit]

Mordenti competed at the 2018 European Championships where she helped the Junior Luxembourg team finish twenty-fifth.[4] She became age-eligible for senior level competition the following year where she competed at the 2019 European Championships, 2019 European Games, and the 2019 World Championships.

At the 2021 World Championships Mordenti finished thirty-fourth during qualifications, becoming the highest placing Luxembourgish gymnast in World Championships history.[5] In late 2024 Mordenti competed at the Szombathely World Challenge Cup where she won bronze on the uneven bars behind Charlotte Booth and Tonya Paulsson.[6] In doing so she became the first Luxembourgish gymnast to win a World Cup series medal.[7]
