CAS Denies Chiles' Medal Appeal Amid Controversy
News summary

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has denied USA Gymnastics' appeal to reconsider its decision to strip Jordan Chiles of her bronze medal from the 2024 Paris Olympics floor exercise competition, despite new video evidence suggesting the appeal was timely. The US Olympic Committee and USA Gymnastics are contesting the decision, citing procedural errors and a conflict of interest involving the CAS panel chair. Despite an IOC proposal to award bronze to all three gymnasts being rejected, public support for Chiles remains strong, with figures like Nadia Comaneci and Patrick McEnroe advocating for fairness. Rapper Flavor Flav has also shown his support by gifting Chiles a bronze clock necklace. The International Olympic Committee has confirmed the reallocation of the bronze medal to Romania's Ana Barbosu. The legal battle looks set to continue, potentially reaching the Swiss Federal Tribunal.
