Jordan Chiles Breaks Silence on ‘Unfair’ Loss of Olympic Medal

But then her coaches filed an investigation on her behalf. According to NBC Olympics, “an investigation is a verbal challenge to a routine’s score. It is followed by a written investigation that must be filed before the end of the rotation. The challenge can only be filed after the gymnast’s final score has been posted and before the end of the next gymnast’s routine.”

According to the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG), if the gymnast is the last to compete, there is a one-minute time limit that begins after the score is displayed on the scoreboard.

The scoring investigation focused on a broken jump in Chiles’ routine, called a tour jeté full.

“In the team qualifier, in the team final, she didn’t get that credit,” the Olympian and NBC gymnastics analyst said. John Roethlisberger she said during the broadcast. “In the initial skill assessment, the judges didn’t give her credit for that. I spoke with Cecilia AND Lorenzo Landihis coaches, and they said, ‘We thought he was doing much better here in the final. So we thought we had nothing to lose, let’s investigate.’

After reviewing Chiles’ routine, the judges granted the request and awarded her 0.1 point for the jump, bringing her score to 13.766, third place.

As a result, Chiles, who burst into tears of joy when she saw the results, won the bronze. Meanwhile, Barbosu, who had already waved the Romanian flag to celebrate her performance, lost her place on the podium.
