IOC reallocate Jordan Chiles
American gymnast Jordan Chiles must return her bronze medal from the Paris Olympics following a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), which determined her coach's appeal to adjust her score was submitted four seconds after the one-minute deadline. Initially, Chiles finished fifth but was awarded bronze after her score was incorrectly boosted due to a successful inquiry about her difficulty score. The CAS reinstated her original score of 13.666, leading to the reallocation of the bronze medal to Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu, who scored 13.700. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) confirmed the decision, expressing they would coordinate the medal return with the U.S. and Romanian Olympic committees. Chiles, who described her experience as devastating, has taken a break from social media for her mental health, while fellow athletes expressed their support for her amidst the controversy. This incident has sparked significant backlash from the U.S. gymnastics community and Romanian officials, including a protest from Romania's Prime Minister.
