Gymnastics is full of twists and turns, but the unfolding saga over which gymnast will officially take home the bronze in the 2024 Olympic women바카라 게임 웹사이트�s artistic floor exercise final has been more complicated than anyone expected.USA gymnast Jordan Chiles was stripped of her first individual Olympic medal after the Romanian gymnastics team challenged her final score. While Team USA바카라 게임 웹사이트�s appeal of that ruling was denied Monday evening, the battle for bronze is far from over.Here바카라 게임 웹사이트�s what you need to know.The competition was fierce 바카라 게임 웹사이트� and it was always going to be closeThe gymnastics women바카라 게임 웹사이트�s floor exercise final was already set to be a nail-biter before Chiles stepped onto the mat for the final performance on August 5. Romania바카라 게임 웹사이트�s Ana Bǎrbosu and her teammate, Sabrina Maneca-Voinea, were tied with a score of 13.700. Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� chance to earn her first individual medal and grace the Olympic podium would come down to a mere tenth of a point.The 23-year-old gymnast confidently executed her floor routine to a Beyoncé medley, and all three athletes waited anxiously for the judges to announce her score.Chiles was initially awarded a score of 13.666, placing her in fifth place. But as the stadium erupted in celebration over Brazil바카라 게임 웹사이트�s Rebeca Andrade바카라 게임 웹사이트�s gold medal, USA Gymnastics Coach Cecile Landi filed an inquiry over Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� difficulty score.Minutes later, Chiles was first to notice the judges바카라 게임 웹사이트� decision 바카라 게임 웹사이트� leaping up and down as a stunned Landi gaped at the leaderboard. The judges revised her score by 0.1, giving her 13.766 to clinch the bronze.The win was historic 바카라 게임 웹사이트� marking the first time all three positions on the Olympic podium were held by Black women. In a remarkable display of sportsmanship, Chiles suggested she and Biles playfully bow to Andrade. The move was captured in an iconic photo that instantly made sporting history.But the celebration would be short-lived.Why Romania challenged the scoreInternational Gymnastics Federation regulations allow a coach to challenge a difficulty score 바카라 게임 웹사이트�provided that they are made verbally immediately after the publication of the score.바카라 게임 웹사이트�According to the guidelines, a coach has 1 minute after the score is shown to make a verbal inquiry for the last gymnast in a rotation.Because Chiles was the final gymnast to perform, her coaches were racing against the clock.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The person designated to receive the verbal inquiry has to record the time of receiving it, either in writing or electronically, and this starts the procedure,바카라 게임 웹사이트� according to the rules.The Romanian Gymnastics Federation and gymnasts Bǎrbosu and Maneca-Voinea filed an official challenge with the Court of Arbitration for Sport to review the circumstances surrounding the decision to revise Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� score.They argued the USA Gymnastics inquiry was filed 4 seconds after the 1-minute deadline and Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� initial score of 13.666 should be upheld. All three athletes, the gymnasts argued, should be placed in third position and each awarded a medal.For the next week, the appeals process played out behind the scenes. Both parties argued their cases before a panel at a hearing on August 10, according to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Then, later that day, the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld Team Romania바카라 게임 웹사이트�s challenge.The sporting governing body announced it had determined the inquiry submitted on behalf of Chiles 바카라 게임 웹사이트�was raised after the conclusion of the one-minute deadline바카라 게임 웹사이트� and is determined to be without effect.바카라 게임 웹사이트�바카라 게임 웹사이트�The Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique shall determine the ranking of the Final of the women바카라 게임 웹사이트�s Floor exercise and assign the medal(s) in accordance with the above decision,바카라 게임 웹사이트� the Court of Arbitration for Sport said in a statement.It was later announced the bronze would be awarded to Bǎrbosu of Romania.A heartbroken Chiles reacts바카라 게임 웹사이트�We are devastated,바카라 게임 웹사이트� USA Gymnastics and the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee said in a joint statement following the ruling. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�The inquiry in the Difficulty Value of Jordan Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� floor exercise routine was filed in good faith and, we believed, in accordance with FIG rules to ensure accurate scoring.바카라 게임 웹사이트�It also noted Chiles had been subjected to 바카라 게임 웹사이트�utterly baseless and extremely hurtful attacks on social media.바카라 게임 웹사이트�Chiles posted four broken heart emojis to her Instagram story following the Court of Arbitration for Sport decision and announced she would be taking a break from social media. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�I am taking this time and removing myself from social media for my mental health thank you,바카라 게임 웹사이트� she wrote.Another twist: USA says it has timestamped evidenceHours later, USA Gymnastics announced it had formally submitted a letter and additional evidence to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to appeal the ruling.The team said in a statement it had submitted timestamped video evidence showing USA Gymnastics Coach Landi submitted her inquiry 바카라 게임 웹사이트�47 seconds after the score is posted, followed by a second statement 55 seconds after the score was originally posted.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The team said it did not have access to the footage prior to the tribunal바카라 게임 웹사이트�s decision and later argued there were 바카라 게임 웹사이트�critical errors바카라 게임 웹사이트� in the initial scoring and the Court of Arbitration for Sport appeals process that needed to be addressed.바카라 게임 웹사이트�Given these circumstances, we are committed to pursuing an appeal to help Jordan Chiles receive the recognition she deserves. We remain dedicated to supporting her as an Olympic champion and will continue to work diligently to resolve this matter swiftly and fairly,바카라 게임 웹사이트� the team said in a statement.USA Gymnastics바카라 게임 웹사이트� appeal is deniedUSA Gymnastics said the Court of Arbitration for Sport has denied its appeal for Chiles to keep her floor exercise bronze medal.바카라 게임 웹사이트�USA Gymnastics was notified by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on Monday that their rules do not allow for an arbitral award to be reconsidered even when conclusive new evidence is presented,바카라 게임 웹사이트� the organization said in a statement Monday evening, adding it would continue to pursue the case.바카라 게임 웹사이트�We are deeply disappointed by the notification and will continue to pursue every possible avenue and appeal process, including to the Swiss Federal Tribunal, to ensure the just scoring, placement, and medal award for Jordan.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The Court of Arbitration for Sport later confirmed in a statement that once both parties are notified of the tribunal바카라 게임 웹사이트�s final decision, 바카라 게임 웹사이트�the case cannot be reopened at the CAS level.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The sporting body also said both parties 바카라 게임 웹사이트�had ample opportunities to present their arguments and objections바카라 게임 웹사이트� during the hearing.바카라 게임 웹사이트�If new evidence (i.e. objectively unknown at the time of the CAS hearing) appears after the issuance of the CAS decision, it would be possible to ask the Swiss Federal Tribunal to order that the case be reopened. The CAS would also reopen the case spontaneously if all parties agree,바카라 게임 웹사이트� the statement said.CNN has reached out to the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee for comment.What comes next?It바카라 게임 웹사이트�s unclear how long it could take for this appeal to work through arbitration 바카라 게임 웹사이트� and it바카라 게임 웹사이트�s unclear if Chiles has already returned the medal.And while score revisions are not uncommon, Chiles바카라 게임 웹사이트� case is unusual. In the past, athletes have been stripped of their medals when the International Olympic Committee finds evidence of illegal substance use.Superstar Usain Bolt was forced to return an Olympic gold medal he바카라 게임 웹사이트�d won in the 4x100m relay at the 2008 Beijing Olympics after it was revealed his teammate, Nesta Carter, had tested positive for a banned substance.CNN바카라 게임 웹사이트�s Jacob Lev, Issy Ronald, Ben Morse, Dan Moriarty and David Close contributed to this report.
