American gymnast Jordan Chiles called an arbitration panel’s decision that she must return the bronze medal she was awarded in the floor exercise at the Paris Olympics unjust in a message posted on social media Thursday. The International Olympic Committee, in light of the decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, announced it would reallocate the bronze to Ana Barbosu of Romania. It seemed that Chiles had won the bronze after judges changed her score following an appeal by Team USA coach Cecile Landi.
