Now, it\u2019s unclear whether or not she is still the bronze medalist of the event. Below, <strong>Hollywood Life<\/strong> has compiled all the details about the drama, including whether she will keep the medal or if she has to return it.<\/p>\n<h2>Was Jordan Chiles Stripped of Her Bronze Medal?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-3\">After Jordan was awarded the bronze medal, the Romanian Olympic and Sports Committee filed a complaint to the International Gymnastics Federation, protesting the results of the women\u2019s floor final. On August 11, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled in favor of Romania\u2019s inquiry and announced that Jordan\u2019s coach\u2019s score inquiry was submitted four seconds too late.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">\u201cThe inquiry submitted on behalf of Ms. Jordan Chiles in the Final of the women\u2019s Floor exercise was raised after the conclusion of the one-minute deadline provided by article 8.5 of the 2024 FIG Technical Regulations and is determined to be without effect,\u201d the ruling read.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-5\">Jordan\u2019s initial score at the event was a 13.666. After the judges accepted her coach\u2019s inquiry, they updated her score to a 13.766, effectively placing her ahead of Romanian gymnasts <strong>Ana B\u0103rbosu<\/strong> and <strong>Sabrina Maneca-Voinea.<\/strong> Now that the CAS has accepted Romania\u2019s complaint, Jordan\u2019s score was reverted to a 13.666.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-6\">USA Gymnastics released a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C-f1YizuZxm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">statement<\/a> confirming that Jordan\u2019s bronze medal status was removed.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C-f1YizuZxm\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:500px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-9\">\u201cWe are devastated by the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling regarding women\u2019s floor exercise,\u201d USAG\u2019s statement read. \u201cThe inquiry into the Difficulty Value of Jordan Chiles\u2019 floor exercise routine was filed in good faith and, we believed, in accordance with FIG rules to ensure accurate scoring. Throughout the appeal process, Jordan has been subject to consistent, utterly baseless and extremely hurtful attacks on social media. No athlete should be subject to such treatment. We condemn the attacks and those who engage, support or instigate them. We commend Jordan for conducting herself with integrity both on and off the competition floor, and we continue to stand by and support her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-10\">Jordan was subjected to cruel and derogatory comments on social media. Some online users accused her of cheating and claimed that she didn\u2019t deserve the bronze medal.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Did Jordan Chiles Lose Her Medal?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-11\">After Jordan was initially labeled in fifth place, her coach, <strong>Cecile Landi<\/strong>, successfully submitted an inquiry that challenged the judges\u2019 difficulty score. Ana was initially in third place and celebrated for what she believed was a victory, wrapping herself in the Romanian flag while running out to the floor. However, upon seeing the judges\u2019 sudden score change, Ana walked away in tears and Jordan was announced the bronze medalist.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-12\">In an Instagram comment,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2024\/08\/08\/jordan-chiles-coach-responds-amid-medal-drama-didnt-steal-anything\/\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">Cecile explained<\/a> what happened during the moments before the podium ceremony.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-13\">\u201cJordan\u2019s highest possible [score value] on floor is a 5.9 \u2014 At quals and team finals, she received a 5.8 and we didn\u2019t question it because we saw that not all elements were completed,\u201d Cecile explained. \u201cDuring floor finals, we thought [it] was better and being placed 5th with nothing to lose, I sent the inquiry so I wouldn\u2019t regret not asking.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Does Jordan Have to Return the Medal?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-14\">According to the International Olympic Committee, Jordan will have to return her bronze medal. However, Team USA has challenged CAS\u2019 ruling by submitting video evidence, allegedly confirming that the score inquiry was not submitted past the one-minute time frame.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-15\">\u201cThe U.S. Olympic &amp; Paralympic Committee (USOPC) will be appealing the recent decision made by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) regarding Jordan Chiles,\u201d USOPC\u2019s statement read. \u201cWe firmly believe that Jordan rightfully earned the bronze medal, and there were critical errors in both the initial scoring by the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) and the subsequent CAS appeal process that need to be addressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C-itH1bJiB8\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:500px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-18\">USAG also released a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C-itH1bJiB8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">statement<\/a>, claiming that coach Landi submitted the inquiry within the one-minute time frame that the scores were posted.<\/p>\n<h2>What Have Ana Barbosu and Jordan Chiles Said About the Medal Change?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-19\">Shortly after the CAS accepted Romania\u2019s inquiry, Jordan announced that she was taking a break from social media. Meanwhile, Ana took to her Instagram Stories, directly addressing her teammate, Sabrina, and Jordan.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-20\">\u201cSabrina, Jordan, my thoughts are with you,\u201d Barbosu, 18, wrote in English across her Instagram Story. \u201cI know what you are feeling, because I\u2019ve been through the same. But I know you\u2019ll come back stronger. I hope from deep [in] my heart that at the next Olympics, all three of us will share [the] same podium.
