American gymnast Jordan Chiles was stripped of her bronze medal title in the women’s floor exercise final at the 2024 Paris Olympics after a ruling from the Court of Arbitration (CAS) ultimately led the International Olympic Committee to restore the podium to include Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu last week.

However, according to reports, Chiles has no plans to return the bronze medal as Team USA plans to continue its pursuit of an appeal.

Chiles, a two-time Olympian and Olympic gold medalist, initially finished fifth in the eight-woman final before Team USA coach Cecile Landi appealed her score, asking to receive credit for a maneuver that would boost her score by .1.

The appeal was granted, and Chiles moved on to the podium, bumping Barbosu out of medal contention. 

Chiles participated in the medal ceremony following the competition, but Romania protested the decision to the CAS, arguing that the appeal was not made within the permitted one-minute time frame of when Chiles’ score was first posted.

The appeal was successful, and on Friday, Barbosu was awarded the bronze medal.
