Competing at the 2020 U.S. Championships, Tennell placed first in the short program, ahead of Alysa Liu and Mariah Bell. Falling on a triple loop attempt and underrotating a triple flip, she dropped to third place after the free skate. With gold medalist Liu again ineligible for senior international competition, Tennell was assigned to the American team for the Four Continents and World Championships.

Tennell placed second in the short program at the 2020 Four Continents Championships, behind defending champion Rika Kihira and just ahead of You Young, who had stepped out on the landing of her attempted triple Axel. In the free skate, Tennell had a turnout between the jumps in her opening combination attempt, but skated cleanly otherwise, winning the bronze medal behind Kihira and You. This was Tennell's first ISU championship medal, and the first for a senior American lady since Mirai Nagasu's bronze medal three years earlier.

She is currently the second highest ranked ladies' singles skater in world by the International Skating Union following the 2019-20 figure skating season.

At the 2019 U.S. Championships, Tennell entered as the defending champion, and removed the triple loop from her short program due to earlier inconsistent results. She placed first in the short program after skating cleanly, slightly less than three points ahead of Alysa Liu. In the free skate, she made errors on both of her triple Lutz combination attempts, placing fourth, and second overall, behind Liu. She was assigned to the Four Continents and World Championships.

At the World Championships in Saitama, Tennell underrotated the second part of her jump combination in the short program, placing tenth. She rose to seventh place in the free skate.

She aimed to master the triple Axel, reportedly with some success, but this was temporarily put aside after developing a stress fracture in her foot. Tennell planned to start her season at the 2019 Autumn Classic International, but she withdrew as a result of her foot injury. In early October, Tennell participated in the 2019 Japan Open competition as a part of North America Team, where she placed fifth with a score of 124.91.

She placed second overall behind Anna Shcherbakova and took the silver medal with a score of 216.14. Later, it was discovered that her second triple Lutz-triple toeloop combination was incorrectly marked as a triple-double. However, because the error was caught after the event had concluded, the scores could not be corrected. Tennell competed at the 2019 Skate Canada International a week later, placing fourth. With her high scores and placements at both events, Tennell earned the sixth spot at the Grand Prix Final in Torino where she skated clean in the short program placing fourth, and completed a clean free program.

At 2018 Skate America, she singled the triple loop in her planned short program combination and received an unclear edge call to place fifth in the short program. She placed fourth in the free program, and placed fourth overall. She placed fourth in the short program, second in the free skating, and overall placed third at the 2018 Internationaux de France, winning her second Grand Prix medal. She won the gold medal at 2018 CS Golden Spin in early December after setting a new season's best in the short program.
