Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu blamed judges for putting Olympic gymnasts in a controversial predicament over the bronze medal in the floor exercise.
Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu broke her silence on Sunday after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) ordered American Jordan Chiles to return her bronze medal.
Barbosu could be awarded the bronze medal amid the controversy that followed the floor exercise final at the Paris Olympics last week. The Center for Arbitration of Sport ruled that the U.S. inquiry into Chiles’ score was past the one-minute deadline and ruled that her score of 13.666 be reinstated, which would drop her to fifth in the rankings – even behind Romanian Sabrina Mancea-Voinea.
