Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu has been reinstated as the bronze medalist in the women's floor exercise at the Paris Olympics 2024, following a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) that voided an appeal by the U.S. team on the grounds that it was submitted four seconds past the one-minute deadline. This decision reverted American gymnast Jordan Chiles' score to fifth place, prompting the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to order the return of her medal. Barbosu expressed her disbelief and joy upon learning of her reinstatement, while Chiles announced a temporary social media break for her mental health. The IOC and the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) are coordinating on the medal reallocation, with FIG confirming that the final decision lies with the IOC. The situation has drawn criticism and emotional reactions from all involved parties, including Barbosu's call for unity among athletes. Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu had previously threatened to boycott the closing ceremony in response to the handling of the situation.
