The worst Olympics! Bad opening ceremony. Forcing athletes to swin in polluted river. Bad accommodation. Giving medals without reviewing appeal first. Like what the hell? How is it okay to give and withdraw a medal given? How do you think the gymnast feel after you take her medal away? You should have review appeals first before giving medals.
It wasn’t just Barbosu, it was Voinea too. They claimed she stepped on the line when recordings even from an American tv station prove that she didn’t. These two girls were both pushed away so the American gymnast could get on the podium.
As far as Voinea, it was up to her coaches to appeal that deduction. Please explore further how scoring occurs. I raised two gymnasts and there are a lot of people commenting that don’t have any knowledge besides what they see with their two eyes.

They're not really supporting Romania per say, they just usually criticise things related to the West. And even if it hadn't been organized in France, these Olympics are still a hot story, bc they've had several problems & controversies.

This years Olympics has been cruel to the sports people. Clearly this Olympics was about politics, gay and cross gender rights over all others, and making money; they sports people was just a second thought. Also the Olympics that insulted Christians all over the world.
USA always play politics EVEN in sports. It's nobody else but USA that trigger it. They started the whole thing by accusing China swimmers of doping. They whine when Chinese swimmers swim faster than them despite knowing they were cleared and despite testing 2x 3x more than US swimmers. Despite interrupted their swimming schedules due to aggressive testing...how is that fair in competition? They like to show anything that have to do with Ukraine or Taiwan. For what? Politics of course. The troublemakers IS the USA!
@@Dreamswithirik1) I box and know that there had been complaints about Imane Khelif for years. This was before the IBA tests. Female boxers, coaches and boxing organizations filed complaints about Khelif being a man every since he started in the adult womens boxing circuit. Look at his fight with Brianda Cruz from a year ago. He almost massacred her and hes walking into her punches without flinching. 2) This was handled privately initally. The IBA tested and found Khelif was a man. Khelif was given the opportunity to retest. Khelif refused. Khelif could have appealed and did initally and dropped the appeal. This was in over a year go when this tests was done so Khelif knew. 3) Khelif applied for the Olympics anyhow. The IBA sent a letter with the test results to the medical team for the IOC a year ago to warn them about Khelif. This was not done publicly but a private letter. The IOC didnt respond and allowed Khelif in. They said they only use passports to verify biological sex. 4) When Khelif boxed Carini and didnt last in the ring because her nose wss broken and she was bloody. People knew it was a man. The IBA was forced to do a press releae on their website saying they told the IOC a year ago and Khelif knew a yr ago as well. This was now a safety and dangerous game the IOC and Khelif were playing. 5) IOC president did a press conference and disregarded the IBA and their results. The IOC said they dont do testing at all. Only look at the passport. The IBA was then forced to do a press conference in Paris because Khelif was getting ready to fight more women and potentially seriously injure or kill a woman. 6) The IOC has done nothing (not one single test) since and allows Khelif to compete. Khelif and his team drum up sympathy and do interviews bring more attention to their so called private situation. 7) Khelif dresses, walks,talks and sits like a young adult man. Khelif literally wears mens suits, clothing and jewelry. Its so blatant and Khelif posts pics on his Instagram. This is essentially what happened. Everyone knew including Khelif and they arent going to stop until a woman is killed.
It's not just that the decision was changed, it's that the Romanians also submitted their own inquiries for their respective grades - but they were rejected without review. *Only* the one from USA was accepted (and prob late too). The American broadcaster NBC, of all agencies, definitively proved that a referee mistake *was made* with one of the Romanian gymnasts (the one that ended up 5th). She was penalized for her foot breaching the mat, when the video shows she hadn't.
In the meantime, Romania got silver in Weightlifting! 🥈🎊 Mihaela Valentina Cambei (21) became the olympic vicechampion this evening, in the 49kg weight class, after managing to lift 205kg, or 452lb! 🥇 was Z.H. Hou from China, with 206kg (so close!) and 🥉 went to S. Khambao from Thailand, with 200kg.
The Romanian difficulty score was correct that’s why it was unchanged. You can’t inquire on penalties or execution… Jordan did submit her inquiry on time
Figure skating too - at the 2018 Olympics, hours were set to benefit Americans so they can watch figure skating in the evening, when most Asians are working. In reality, the sport has been dying in the US for decades and guess who gold and silver in the ladies event? At the 2022 men's event, an American won at an event set to suit them but this guy and the rest of the Americans can't pack out half of an arena for a skating show for those Americans
@@godwindracing6056That's because we enjoyed it in the moment. Idk who won women's in 2018 but guessing US which is shocking. I'd pay to watch Nathan Chen. In terms of the current topic, it's not the US fault, perhaps somewhere if you go high enough up, but the specific floor exercise? It's not on Chiles they treated her differently. However, 5th place should have been the bronze medalist.
@@godwindracing6056 in the Ladies event at the 2018 Olympics in Pyeongchang, Alina Zagitova (Russia) won gold and Evgenia Medvedeva (Russia) won silver. Kaetlyn Osmond (Canada) won Bronze. In the 2022 Ladies event in Beijing, Anna Shcherbakova (Russia) won gold, Alexandra Trusova (Russia) won silver and Kaori Sakamoto (Japan) won bronze. In this Floor Final for Gymnastics at the Paris Olympics in 2024, Rebecca Andrade (Brazil) won gold, Simone Biles (USA) won silver and Sabrina Voinea (Romania) won bronze. However, Jordan Chiles was incorrectly awarded the bronze even after Ana Barbosu (Romania) was originally in the Bronze position. I’m not sure if the indication of your comment was that the US won gold and silver in Pyeongchang in 2018 in the ladies event, but that’s entirely incorrect if so.
@@lilacicecream Why don't you feel bad that the Judges downgraded Jordan's program, by overlooking a skill done by US, JORDAN CHILES? Thus lowering US ATHLETE'S score placing HER, in 5th place.
Normal If it involves USA ... They are too powerful in the world in any way....They never lose despite the fact that they lose.... because they are heroes in the world... 😁
Its so clear to us, brazilians, the same. All this to try to say US is better than China. We always had seen this. Since 80's. It was not fair for the romanian gymnast. She is amazing. Don't let this ridiculous situation steal your dreams.
I don't know if Ana will continue, but Sabrina's mother, who is also her trainer, has announced that for mental health reasons, wants to pull out her daughter from gymnastics. Said that Sabrina is in shock shivering and crying with depression. The lady was admonished by other trainers for making an emotional decision, as this can ruin the future of a talented gem. However, I believe they are all right - she must continue, but right now is clear that needs to focus on her health. Ana must be suffering the same. Both girls have been working hard for Olympics only to go through this humiliation.
@@eeaotly That level of reaction to the decision shows mental health issues, which likely stem from harsh training. Romania has been known to train women in unhealthy ways.
So our US athletes aren’t any good? Since the 80s? It’s just that judges and referees from all over the world cheat to make the United States win? So that we look better than China. That is quite a story you have.
So many controversies in this Olympics. Athletes works soooooo hard to be participating in the matches and these human destroy their dreams n hard works😢😢😢😢
I watched the routine by the Romanian gymnast and opined she was awarded an unfairly low score. Before her result was announced, I thought she would be placed even ahead of Simone Biles and deserved to be second. This Olympics is a shamble and any organization that is led by the West or can be influenced by them is a joke.
Remember that level of difficulty factors into the points. The American routines had more technical difficulty, which means they can make more mistakes and still receive a higher score. It's the equivalent of attempting 1 twist and landing perfectly versus trying a triple and landing with a slight extra step. The triple will score higher because what was attempted was a lot harder.
@@KatieBellinoHonestly, that's one of the most ridiculous rules. So you can literally fall on your ass and still make the podium just because you *tried* to do something harder than someone who did something a bit easier but successfully. Oh, like it happened in 2012 when McKayla Marooney got silver at the vault?
@@KatieBellinoDifficulty means nothing if you aren't able to keep your landing or stay in the carpet the fact that so many routines git medals it is a spat in face of what gymnastics used to be. I know it as I have watched gymnastics since the 80s.
@@jtheurp9101The irony is now another athlete is contesting her score and if it bumps her to 3rd Chiles will keep her medal. But Ana was at the podium with the flag. . .surely they must have said it was official at that point. There should be a clear cut “scores are all locked in now” after a review period, long before the ceremony!
@@jtheurp9101It is the athlete fault how she behaved on podium and how she gloated after knowing very well that the medal was stolen and it is undeserved. That is all on her. Ok, maybe at that age you don't have the fortitude to refuse the medal but at least you should be stern. Next time when you ask why some people don't like Americans that is one of the reasons because nobody likes entitled cheaters.
@@elenabob4953stop spamming this comment. Why are you so hurt? Her behavior wasn't bad and even was admirable. She wondered of a three way tie. But you spamming is spreading a fake narrative
As an American their complaint shouldn’t have been accepted because if you look at both Simone and Jordan’s performances, Biles went way out of bounds and Chiles didn’t execute her landings perfectly whereas both Sabrina and Ana did. The Romanians deserved the medals in this case.
I agree I will watch the entire thing and both Romanians have had the best landings in the entire floor final like, what the hell kind of bull crap is this
It’s not just about the landings though, Simone’s routine was much more difficult which is why she gets a ton of points but they deducted for her 2 steps out
So that actually not how that works… Jordan difficulty score was not correct so that why it was accepted. Simone start value (difficulty) was a full point higher than anyone one else which allowed her to make mistakes. Ana technique in her flips in the air sucks as for Jordan it almost perfect…landing are not the only deduction
You don’t understand gymnastics and how difficulty is factored in. Biles can afford to land on her butt and still win because her difficulty is so much higher so she has the cushion of error in points to step out of bounds. She actually gets cheated out of difficulty points sometimes because what she does is so dangerously difficult that they want to discourage other girls who are not up to that skill level from trying it because they could end up paralyzed or worse. They score Biles lower (meaning some of her moves should have a higher than the max difficulty they assign to it) because they don’t want another girl to try a move she can’t handle safely just because they know that it is difficult enough to give you enough points to medal without having to be perfect.
@@Omerlover346You are obviously blinded by your prejudices and even more rabid support for the USA. Please desist. You have not shown sound judgement.
They appealed legally within their window during the session. NOT after the medal ceremony. That is legal and fair. It was determined that Jordan Chiles had in fact been shorted 0.1 points worth of difficulty. While it was disappointing for Romania, everything was legal and part of the sport. You can't retaliate after the fact with appeals for more points because you don't like a decision. Otherwise, they'd go back and forth forever.
My understanding is the judges made the initial error of not beginning with Chiles’s correct starting score, the degree of difficulty. They had left out an element that Chiles did, in fact, perform. (The tour jeté). The USA judge requested it be looked at and the judges saw their error. Coaches can appeal the starting degree of difficulty score. They can’t appeal how it was executed, that’s why Ana’s score didn’t change. Scores are not final until all have been reviewed. And every coach can put in a request. Surely the girls are instructed in this? Even Andrade and Biles were not celebrating yet. The other teams knew to wait. But I think it’s terrible the judges could be so careless as to begin with incorrect degree of difficulty score. I understand they also marked another girl for going out of bounds when American broadcasting replayed it in slow motion to show that she hadn’t. I think it was more incompetence than anything. This should not happen at the Olympics.
This incident wasn’t fully explained. The Romanians were angered because 0.1 was deducted from the Romanian gymnast’s score for no apparent reason. Initially it was thought for stepping out of the perimeter but closer inspection showed she didn’t.
Plus, a second Romanian gymnast pushed from the podium by a USA contestation. And so Romania end up jumping to rip the throat of the US on this with an army of specialized lawyers.
As an American, I was heart broken to see that poor Romanian girl in tears after seeing the score change and she was bumped off. They will both be back in 4 years, but Ana got ripped off. They all did an excellent job, but….. Don’t give another country a reason to hate USA Ana deserves the bronze, so make another medal. Call it a tie, it’s metal with a ribbon, but this event/memory will have an effect. I still remember things from my HS days and I’m 44. They don’t bother me much, but HS isn’t the Olympics. Shame on the IOC

Alexei Nemov, 2004 Athens Olympics had a similar situation, where after audiences booed, only then the judges gave more points. All because he was Russian and they wanted to Favor an American gymnast. Judges are sick.
The reason Jordan's score was raised was because the judges failed to give her credit for a dance skill she preformed. Giving the Romanian girl the medal over Jordan would have been robbing her. Score corrections happen a lot. Romania celebrated before the official scores were submitted.

@@george12cosmin Score are adjusted after inquiries frequently. Interesting enough the inquiry can result in the score going up or down. At World's 2022 Jade submitted an inquiry on a vault score and her inquiry took points away taking her out of medal contention. Please tell me 1. You are aware that things like this happen and 2. You banged your drum to get Jade her medal. This isn't a sign or symptom of corruption. This is a check and balance on the power of judges to prevent favoritism (think Russian Figure Skating judges circa 2002 Olympics). Again, the split leap with the 540° rotation that Jordan DID DO in her routine was not credited to her. The inquiry gave her the credit. Ana got the credit she deserved for her routine and I think she can proudly say she is the 4th best female on floor in gymnastics in the world. If you look at the difficulty assigned to both Jordan and Ana you will see that Jordan has a slightly higher difficulty which means if she hits all her skills she will out score Ana every time they compete.
This is what we do in America these days -complain, play the victim, cry, and get offended. Shames me to see this crap. Clearly, the Romanian was better and in my mind she won. Crappy judges that gave in into BS demands. My apologies to Romanians - the people that pretty much invented the sport to begin with.
The Americans have been doing this since the 1800s. Just go and read about the New York Yacht Club "America's Cup" and how they came to win it every year consecutively for 132 years since 1851 until 1983 when the Australians finally outsmarted them despite all of their trickery and shenanigans with the "rules".
@@dougrose7334 And lunch .. and dinner ... and then the house ... and then the richness from your soil ... A medal, in this case, is just a symbol ... Yeah, nothing new under the sun.

A legal appeal was made. Obviously, the judges agreed with that appeal. It is part of the sport and happens frequently. If Romania trained their women in a healthy way, they would have the mental health to roll with the punches when these things happen.
Actually you can in Gymnastics. Also in football, tennis, cricket, rugby, swimming, track... the list goes on. It's very handy in correcting human error.

In Romania, the public perception is that the bronze medal was awarded on political criteria of skin color and country of origin, being obvious that the organizers wanted the same skin color on the podium.
All this favoritism and shady moves only lead to frustration and anger towards the U.S. I ended up dismissing their athletes in my mind and ignoring the U.S. competitors. It's probably not fair, but the constant favoritism is overwhelming.
I can see if the the original score did not come out yet and they were reviewing and reviewing. But it already came out and the "poor girl knew that she got what she got". OIC should be ashamed.

I'm American, but I felt devastated for the Romanian because of her genuine shock and tears, because she did her best, and US already has a shit ton of medals in gymnastics, but they still had to rob one from Romania; a medal for Romania is like worth a hundred medals for US, because of diminishing returns. I am sorry for what my country has done to the Romanians, I also happen to visit Romania next year after I visit the Balkans.
An additional piece of information maybe gone unnoticed. In the 2000 Olympics at Sydney Romania won all 3 prizes for floor gymnastics if I am not mistaken (it was surely gymnastics anyhow). Days later the gold medal was striped from Andreea Raducanu because some argued that she used drugs. Her physician has given her Nurofen Cold&Flu, a pill for when catching a cold. The pill was not forbidden then. AFTER the scandal it was forbidden. The podium changed with China coming on 3rd place. Nurofen is admitted again and since then NO country has ever had 3 gymnasts in a final. It's a kind of an unspoken rule to have at most 2. It could have been any other country, not just Romania. Now judge how fair is this choice and how it makes the final results objective.
France is hosting the worst Olympics in living memory! They are tarnishing the Olympic brand in such a way it'll take decades to recover. Had facilities, had results, VERY bad decisions, Paris 2024 will be long remembered for all the wrong reasons. Such a SHAME.

Shame on The Olympic Committee & Officials, indivisual events have the least amount of Deception Probabilities from Players but ALAS The OFFICIALS DECEIVE THE PLAYERS/PERFORMERS!!!
Maybe you people should read up about this issue. Her start value was incorrect and should have been higher because of a superior skill, so they appealed to committee and that's why she won the medal. It wasn't favoritism at all...if anything it was righting a wrong. Her routine started out with the wrong value. Sour grapes! Grow up. If the shoe had been on Barbosa's foot, she would've done the same. Quit whining Romania.
Not just that! Voinea presented the same routine as in the team's competition and her starting mark was 6.00. In the floor final, the same routine was given a starting mark of 5.90 and she received a deduction of 0.10 claiming she stepped out of the carpet (the referees later said they have only cameras which film from above the carpet lines and it seemed she stepped out but if you look from the side you can see her heel was in the air not on the carpet line). Voinea's coach, her mother, asked for the mark to be reviewed but was denied so in reality her mark was not 13.700 but 13.900 giving her the bronze...
The right decision was made to correct Jordan Chiles score. For example: If a man is unfairly convicted of a crime but new evidence clearly exonerates him, should we not free him? It would be absolutely stupid to say that a decision has already been made. However, I do feel sorry for the Romanian.
We don't rig anything. Our strength is our diversity. We are a country of MANY different peoples. If that seems unfair, your country could be more open. It would improve your success.
Did the US wait till the last second, or did they immediately challenge, but it wasn't resolved until the last moment? The judges need to be held accountable. If they miss a moves execution and fail to score it, that isn't fair. It also isn't fair to snatch a medal away from an athlete after announcing them. I may be American, but I can see both sides of this.
It wasn't an announcement and there had been no medal ceremony yet. It's just that the scores are showing on the scoreboard and then it was adjusted within like a couple minutes. The same thing happened in swimming to American, Alex Walsh. She thought she had gotten the bronze in the 200 IM, began to celebrate, and then saw the DQ show up on the board for her back/breast turn.
I’m American and will always stand for US gymnastics but ima be honest, she was robbed poor Ana. But also France did a horrible job at hosting this year, ngl Tokyo did it better EVEN with Covid.
This is the most objective, clear and straight to the point news outlet I've ever seen. Keep up the good work. By the way, I'm done with the Paris Olympics because of this. Good riddance IOC.

JUSTICE FOR ROMANIA 🇷🇴 Let's don't forget the second place also.i don't understand how can take silver when u was out of the floor 2 times and not with a small step,with all body ...i really think these judges must be banned in the future.
So sorry for Romania 🇷🇴 and this athlete And we are not surprised at this disastrous Olympics...They made a mockery of God at the beginning...you sow what you reap: chaos and the worst Olympics ever!!! Am not even watching except short news clips here
I hope this gymnast knows that her performance was great and never to stop doing what she is so great at, simply because of a colosal mistake by judges
Doesn't work that way. Remember they see a "tallied" score immediately. Nothing is finalized, but scores show on the scoreboard during the session. This all occurred well before the actual medal ceremony.
1. France offends ppl with its opening ceremony. Referencing the Last Supper. 2. The sleeping accommodations are mediocre for all Olympian’s to sleep in. Some Olympian’s didn’t have a good night’s sleep before their competition, therefore they didn’t perform at their best. 3. The food cafeteria was lacking enough protein for the Olympian’s. They fixed the problem, but what about the Olympian’s that were counting on the proper nutrition at the beginning? 3. Now the judges screw up in scoring and rip a medal from one gymnast to give it to the correct gymnast. I am also not going to watch the closing ceremony.
As to the last point, no literal medal was ripped away. The medal ceremony had not occurred. This was literally at the end of the session for floor immediately following the last gymnast. The tentative scores were on the board, an appeal occurred, and things were immediately corrected. The only ripping was a too early celebration because of the tentative bronze that was showing for the Romanian.
I still cannot understand how Biles got a medal after stepping out two times from the carpet, with both legs... aside the way the judges scored Ana and Sabrina
Simone's starting difficulty was 6.9, which is insanely high. She was given the largest penalty (0.3) for the two steps out of bounds, so did lose 0.6 for those two times out of the carpet. Her execution was only given 7.8. I believe Ana's difficulty was more like 5.8, so that's how Simone was able to stay ahead of her.
You're ignoring the perspective of Chiles. If the move she did should indeed have got her +0.1 points and it was not granted by the judges, that was a mistake from the judges. If it had not been rectified, she would unfairly be out of the podium.
There's no use trying to educate these people. They already decided the Romanian was robbed. Even if the American was the one robbed until they fought for justice.
I may be a US citizen, but I say give back the gold medal to its rightful athlete! So sick of the Olympics being nothing but a political stunt! Glad that Romania is taking a stand!
How shocking for the young woman! My condolences to her and the whole team. Judges and officials owe it to the athletes to assess the performance carefully and submit correct marks without bowing to political pressure or preference.
The worst Olympics! Bad opening ceremony. Forcing athletes to swin in polluted river. Bad accommodation. Giving medals without reviewing appeal first. Like what the hell? How is it okay to give and withdraw a medal given? How do you think the gymnast feel after you take her medal away? You should have review appeals first before giving medals.

@@Dreamswithirik Having a person with xy chromosomes compete in boxing with woman.
@@Dreamswithirikacknowledged their presence but not openly promoting them
@@Dreamswithirik1) I box and know that there had been complaints about Imane Khelif for years. This was before the IBA tests. Female boxers, coaches and boxing organizations filed complaints about Khelif being a man every since he started in the adult womens boxing circuit. Look at his fight with Brianda Cruz from a year ago. He almost massacred her and hes walking into her punches without flinching.
2) This was handled privately initally. The IBA tested and found Khelif was a man. Khelif was given the opportunity to retest. Khelif refused. Khelif could have appealed and did initally and dropped the appeal. This was in over a year go when this tests was done so Khelif knew.
3) Khelif applied for the Olympics anyhow. The IBA sent a letter with the test results to the medical team for the IOC a year ago to warn them about Khelif. This was not done publicly but a private letter. The IOC didnt respond and allowed Khelif in. They said they only use passports to verify biological sex.
4) When Khelif boxed Carini and didnt last in the ring because her nose wss broken and she was bloody. People knew it was a man. The IBA was forced to do a press releae on their website saying they told the IOC a year ago and Khelif knew a yr ago as well. This was now a safety and dangerous game the IOC and Khelif were playing.
5) IOC president did a press conference and disregarded the IBA and their results. The IOC said they dont do testing at all. Only look at the passport. The IBA was then forced to do a press conference in Paris because Khelif was getting ready to fight more women and potentially seriously injure or kill a woman.
6) The IOC has done nothing (not one single test) since and allows Khelif to compete. Khelif and his team drum up sympathy and do interviews bring more attention to their so called private situation.
7) Khelif dresses, walks,talks and sits like a young adult man. Khelif literally wears mens suits, clothing and jewelry. Its so blatant and Khelif posts pics on his Instagram.
This is essentially what happened. Everyone knew including Khelif and they arent going to stop until a woman is killed.
It's not just that the decision was changed, it's that the Romanians also submitted their own inquiries for their respective grades - but they were rejected without review. *Only* the one from USA was accepted (and prob late too).
The American broadcaster NBC, of all agencies, definitively proved that a referee mistake *was made* with one of the Romanian gymnasts (the one that ended up 5th). She was penalized for her foot breaching the mat, when the video shows she hadn't.

Its so clear to us, brazilians, the same. All this to try to say US is better than China. We always had seen this. Since 80's. It was not fair for the romanian gymnast. She is amazing. Don't let this ridiculous situation steal your dreams.
I don't know if Ana will continue, but Sabrina's mother, who is also her trainer, has announced that for mental health reasons, wants to pull out her daughter from gymnastics. Said that Sabrina is in shock shivering and crying with depression. The lady was admonished by other trainers for making an emotional decision, as this can ruin the future of a talented gem. However, I believe they are all right - she must continue, but right now is clear that needs to focus on her health. Ana must be suffering the same. Both girls have been working hard for Olympics only to go through this humiliation.
If the girl is an american, this definitely would not happen. Shameless behavior
They banned the Russians toowho would've wiped the US off the floor
@@eeaotly That level of reaction to the decision shows mental health issues, which likely stem from harsh training. Romania has been known to train women in unhealthy ways.
So our US athletes aren’t any good? Since the 80s? It’s just that judges and referees from all over the world cheat to make the United States win? So that we look better than China. That is quite a story you have.
Olympics has lost its credibility in terms of treatment of athletes or in terms of rewarding them they have become money hungry wolves
So many controversies in this Olympics. Athletes works soooooo hard to be participating in the matches and these human destroy their dreams n hard works😢😢😢😢
I watched the routine by the Romanian gymnast and opined she was awarded an unfairly low score. Before her result was announced, I thought she would be placed even ahead of Simone Biles and deserved to be second. This Olympics is a shamble and any organization that is led by the West or can be influenced by them is a joke.
Remember that level of difficulty factors into the points. The American routines had more technical difficulty, which means they can make more mistakes and still receive a higher score. It's the equivalent of attempting 1 twist and landing perfectly versus trying a triple and landing with a slight extra step. The triple will score higher because what was attempted was a lot harder.
@@KatieBellinoHonestly, that's one of the most ridiculous rules. So you can literally fall on your ass and still make the podium just because you *tried* to do something harder than someone who did something a bit easier but successfully. Oh, like it happened in 2012 when McKayla Marooney got silver at the vault?
Me too.
@@KatieBellinoDifficulty means nothing if you aren't able to keep your landing or stay in the carpet the fact that so many routines git medals it is a spat in face of what gymnastics used to be. I know it as I have watched gymnastics since the 80s.
It is nothing but a slap in the face of the hardworking athletes. A big rip-off for the rest.
I am a US Citizen, and I agree, the medal should have stayed where it was given in the first place
Completely agree!!
Why, it’s not the athlete’s fault, though there should have been some sort of medal sharing option
@@jtheurp9101The irony is now another athlete is contesting her score and if it bumps her to 3rd Chiles will keep her medal. But Ana was at the podium with the flag. . .surely they must have said it was official at that point. There should be a clear cut “scores are all locked in now” after a review period, long before the ceremony!
@@jtheurp9101It is the athlete fault how she behaved on podium and how she gloated after knowing very well that the medal was stolen and it is undeserved. That is all on her. Ok, maybe at that age you don't have the fortitude to refuse the medal but at least you should be stern.
Next time when you ask why some people don't like Americans that is one of the reasons because nobody likes entitled cheaters.
@@elenabob4953stop spamming this comment. Why are you so hurt? Her behavior wasn't bad and even was admirable. She wondered of a three way tie. But you spamming is spreading a fake narrative
As an American their complaint shouldn’t have been accepted because if you look at both Simone and Jordan’s performances, Biles went way out of bounds and Chiles didn’t execute her landings perfectly whereas both Sabrina and Ana did. The Romanians deserved the medals in this case.
I agree I will watch the entire thing and both Romanians have had the best landings in the entire floor final like, what the hell kind of bull crap is this
It’s not just about the landings though, Simone’s routine was much more difficult which is why she gets a ton of points but they deducted for her 2 steps out
So that actually not how that works… Jordan difficulty score was not correct so that why it was accepted. Simone start value (difficulty) was a full point higher than anyone one else which allowed her to make mistakes. Ana technique in her flips in the air sucks as for Jordan it almost perfect…landing are not the only deduction
You don’t understand gymnastics and how difficulty is factored in. Biles can afford to land on her butt and still win because her difficulty is so much higher so she has the cushion of error in points to step out of bounds. She actually gets cheated out of difficulty points sometimes because what she does is so dangerously difficult that they want to discourage other girls who are not up to that skill level from trying it because they could end up paralyzed or worse. They score Biles lower (meaning some of her moves should have a higher than the max difficulty they assign to it) because they don’t want another girl to try a move she can’t handle safely just because they know that it is difficult enough to give you enough points to medal without having to be perfect.
Me too, I watched the entire match, Romanians are better
I am American and I can say GIVE BACK Romania's bronze medal. So NOT Fair!
It was completely fair. This video was spreading misinformation… just watch the floor final replay it more informative
@@Omerlover346You are obviously blinded by your prejudices and even more rabid support for the USA. Please desist. You have not shown sound judgement.
They appealed legally within their window during the session. NOT after the medal ceremony. That is legal and fair. It was determined that Jordan Chiles had in fact been shorted 0.1 points worth of difficulty. While it was disappointing for Romania, everything was legal and part of the sport. You can't retaliate after the fact with appeals for more points because you don't like a decision. Otherwise, they'd go back and forth forever.
Для вас американцев нужно отдельные игры,чтобы все медали принадлежали вам😮@@KatieBellino
My understanding is the judges made the initial error of not beginning with Chiles’s correct starting score, the degree of difficulty. They had left out an element that Chiles did, in fact, perform. (The tour jeté). The USA judge requested it be looked at and the judges saw their error. Coaches can appeal the starting degree of difficulty score. They can’t appeal how it was executed, that’s why Ana’s score didn’t change.
Scores are not final until all have been reviewed. And every coach can put in a request. Surely the girls are instructed in this? Even Andrade and Biles were not celebrating yet. The other teams knew to wait.
But I think it’s terrible the judges could be so careless as to begin with incorrect degree of difficulty score.
I understand they also marked another girl for going out of bounds when American broadcasting replayed it in slow motion to show that she hadn’t.
I think it was more incompetence than anything. This should not happen at the Olympics.
This incident wasn’t fully explained. The Romanians were angered because 0.1 was deducted from the Romanian gymnast’s score for no apparent reason. Initially it was thought for stepping out of the perimeter but closer inspection showed she didn’t.
Plus, a second Romanian gymnast pushed from the podium by a USA contestation. And so Romania end up jumping to rip the throat of the US on this with an army of specialized lawyers.
As an American, I was heart broken to see that poor Romanian girl in tears after seeing the score change and she was bumped off. They will both be back in 4 years, but Ana got ripped off. They all did an excellent job, but…..
Don’t give another country a reason to hate USA
Ana deserves the bronze, so make another medal. Call it a tie, it’s metal with a ribbon, but this event/memory will have an effect. I still remember things from my HS days and I’m 44. They don’t bother me much, but HS isn’t the Olympics.

You banged your drum to get Jade her medal.
This isn't a sign or symptom of corruption. This is a check and balance on the power of judges to prevent favoritism (think Russian Figure Skating judges circa 2002 Olympics).
Again, the split leap with the 540° rotation that Jordan DID DO in her routine was not credited to her. The inquiry gave her the credit. Ana got the credit she deserved for her routine and I think she can proudly say she is the 4th best female on floor in gymnastics in the world. If you look at the difficulty assigned to both Jordan and Ana you will see that Jordan has a slightly higher difficulty which means if she hits all her skills she will out score Ana every time they compete.

A legal appeal was made. Obviously, the judges agreed with that appeal. It is part of the sport and happens frequently. If Romania trained their women in a healthy way, they would have the mental health to roll with the punches when these things happen.

@@Omerlover3465th place should have won bronze what are you talking about?
@@AlexandruChirita-nb9vs definitely disagree
All the judges should be held accountable 😔 sorry ana but continue to raise. The best is ahead. Good luck
The judges, like those in the IOC are NOT accountable which is why they will continue to make errors and get away with them.
America has it's own special rules. Rules for thee and not for me.
I can see if the the original score did not come out yet and they were reviewing and reviewing. But it already came out and the "poor girl knew that she got what she got". OIC should be ashamed. To OIC, you NEED TO DO THE RIGHT THING HERE, either take back that medal from US gymnast, Chiles or award Romania another Bronze medal to "fair up" & "compensate for your lack of judgment under the law of the games and debacle favoritism decision" (smh). This is the worst Olympic, ever. That said, I cannot wait to see the "mandatory d*** test results of all the athletes" to come back. 🤔
Scores were never official. She celebrated too early
They were shown on the scoreboard, but those aren't official scores yet. The athletes do technically know that.
I was watching this particular event and it was evident that the romanian lady was robbed of a bronze medal
So you weren’t actually watching it
@@Omerlover346 i guess you weren't and /or you know nothing about sport or gymnastics .
@@Omerlover346romania was robbed for bronze. You know it. Nobody that actually knows gymnastics will acknowledge the bronze medal the American won. only people that are uneducated will,like yourself
@@nicholasmaharaj5493love it that people has to say something just to make a nonsensical point and waste 15 seconds of their lives doing so. You have an opinion which you are entitled to in peace.
@@nicholasmaharaj5493 nope I do. Done it for 10+ year (elite) almost know the code of points by memory and rules.
Lost interest in first day itself after seeing opening ceremony. 2008 Beijing ceremony was far superior. Seems too much corruption , politics killed the credibility of Paris Olympics. Even authorities couldn’t guard the safety of players and coaches. Number of thefts reported was above 3rd world country
London was dreadful, now Paris is abysmal. Nothing can match Beijing.
True!
China can accomplish anything. It wants to as long as it uses slave labor..
US gymnast was at the 5th place before the promotion. It's scandalous .
Now she is back in the 5th place but the other Romanian gymnast still didn't get her justice.
It is because Romania is poor country and they are eastern european. America and France are complicit in this crime.
It’s because they are white & Christian … big problem at the Wokelympics. It’s no longer about rich and poor … it’s about who falls in line with their agenda. They wanted 3 black girls on the podium ! Then newspapers praise the fact !!
Romania isn't a poor country lol
First time I've heard a high income country is poor lol
@@kozakura1You know what they meant, that Romania is less influential than USA.
Индия дисквалификации из за 100 грамма веса
Румыния просто отобрали медаль
Хахаххаха что за представление.
Наверно нам предстоит отдать все медали честно заслуженным победителям Американцам 😂😂
I'm American, but I felt devastated for the Romanian because of her genuine shock and tears, because she did her best, and US already has a shit ton of medals in gymnastics, but they still had to rob one from Romania; a medal for Romania is like worth a hundred medals for US, because of diminishing returns. I am sorry for what my country has done to the Romanians, I also happen to visit Romania next year after I visit the Balkans.
This Olympics is the worst ever play in this life time
An additional piece of information maybe gone unnoticed. In the 2000 Olympics at Sydney Romania won all 3 prizes for floor gymnastics if I am not mistaken (it was surely gymnastics anyhow). Days later the gold medal was striped from Andreea Raducanu because some argued that she used drugs. Her physician has given her Nurofen Cold&Flu, a pill for when catching a cold. The pill was not forbidden then. AFTER the scandal it was forbidden. The podium changed with China coming on 3rd place. Nurofen is admitted again and since then NO country has ever had 3 gymnasts in a final. It's a kind of an unspoken rule to have at most 2. It could have been any other country, not just Romania. Now judge how fair is this choice and how it makes the final results objective.
It is not an unspoken rule, it is the rule.
Rigged! What are you doing France?!
Speak to the International olympic committee , not to French pple , they can do nothing for you 😅.
France is hosting the worst Olympics in living memory! They are tarnishing the Olympic brand in such a way it'll take decades to recover.
Had facilities, had results, VERY bad decisions, Paris 2024 will be long remembered for all the wrong reasons. Such a SHAME.
Your anger should be at the IOC not France
Your anger should be at both. The French are complicit in this farce of a games!
FARCE not France!
Absolute fucked up.. Worst worst olympics.
Jamaican 100m gold denied when rules say to hundredth of a second, but instead they went to thousandth of a second to give usa the gold and jamaica silver.
I usually watch the Olympics and look forward to seeing the different nationalities compete, but I watched a little bit of it this time. The opening and the way the city has treated the athletes has put me off altogether. Now I see the true Colours of the IOC and the French leaders. They all SUCK big time. This is the most trashiest budget Olympics I have ever witnessed. I still cannot believe they made athletes swim in that faecal infested river.
And allowed two men to beat up women in box competition...
America stole Romanias gymnastics program in the 90s, now they are stealing medals.
Blame the coaches and athletes who later became coaches who defected to the US betraying their own country.
@@kittygirl_thetortie498 they were bribed then much like the judges were bribed now. It’s wrong either way, why make excuses?? Were you bribed as well?
@@dantirk4560Bribed?? Be serious. We don't need to bribe judges. Or threaten them. That's something Eastern European countries do.
@@playfulpanthress you keep telling yourself that. 3rd world countries in Eastern Europe can get away with that in their own circles, not on an international level
I'm a 68 yr old American. The Romanian girl got shafted! I'll go a step farther and say that Simone (thee greatest female gymnast of all time) did not have a clean performance that warranted her high score. Seen em' all ................worst Olympics in my lifetime. Started with the freakshow opening ceremony and went downhill from there.
Shame on The Olympic Committee & Officials, indivisual events have the least amount of Deception Probabilities from Players but ALAS The OFFICIALS DECEIVE THE PLAYERS/PERFORMERS!!!
Like the Philippines Boxers, we've been robbed a lot of times when we clearly won by points.
Maybe you people should read up about this issue. Her start value was incorrect and should have been higher because of a superior skill, so they appealed to committee and that's why she won the medal. It wasn't favoritism at all...if anything it was righting a wrong. Her routine started out with the wrong value. Sour grapes! Grow up. If the shoe had been on Barbosa's foot, she would've done the same. Quit whining Romania.
Not just that! Voinea presented the same routine as in the team's competition and her starting mark was 6.00. In the floor final, the same routine was given a starting mark of 5.90 and she received a deduction of 0.10 claiming she stepped out of the carpet (the referees later said they have only cameras which film from above the carpet lines and it seemed she stepped out but if you look from the side you can see her heel was in the air not on the carpet line). Voinea's coach, her mother, asked for the mark to be reviewed but was denied so in reality her mark was not 13.700 but 13.900 giving her the bronze...
I can't blame them straight robbed the medal🏅
Justice has been made! CAS decided! Romania got the bronze!❤❤❤
My heart goes out to that poor woman, her team, & her country - ♥ from Australia!
Olympics is a curse. Never host it
Too much obeyance to false gods (llahs) in the Olympics.
True the Romanian girl gymnast was not treated fairly…Her routine was perfect we were all baffled by her low score
The right decision was made to correct Jordan Chiles score. For example: If a man is unfairly convicted of a crime but new evidence clearly exonerates him, should we not free him? It would be absolutely stupid to say that a decision has already been made. However, I do feel sorry for the Romanian.
Haha ruled in favour of the American once again. RIGGED BLOODY OLYMPICS
We don't rig anything. Our strength is our diversity. We are a country of MANY different peoples. If that seems unfair, your country could be more open. It would improve your success.
Did the US wait till the last second, or did they immediately challenge, but it wasn't resolved until the last moment?
The judges need to be held accountable. If they miss a moves execution and fail to score it, that isn't fair. It also isn't fair to snatch a medal away from an athlete after announcing them.
I may be American, but I can see both sides of this.
Bullshit the judges should take enough time before announcing gold winner s
They never announced it
Good grief. This has nothing to do with the gold medal. That was decided as soon as Biles stepped out of bounds with both feet.
It wasn't an announcement and there had been no medal ceremony yet. It's just that the scores are showing on the scoreboard and then it was adjusted within like a couple minutes. The same thing happened in swimming to American, Alex Walsh. She thought she had gotten the bronze in the 200 IM, began to celebrate, and then saw the DQ show up on the board for her back/breast turn.
I’m American and will always stand for US gymnastics but ima be honest, she was robbed poor Ana. But also France did a horrible job at hosting this year, ngl Tokyo did it better EVEN with Covid.
swimmers are literally swimming with poo in the seine.
Anyway the US can mess things up around the world they do not miss a chance, changing it after the event is so bad
This is the most objective, clear and straight to the point news outlet I've ever seen. Keep up the good work. By the way, I'm done with the Paris Olympics because of this. Good riddance IOC.
This the same thing they did to the jamaican track on field team
This olympics was an utter disgrace to sports.. biased judges, refrees.. racism, stupid facilities and what not🤷♂️🤡
This years Olympics is literally a TV serial....u dont know what keeps popping up in the story
Such a perfect description. 👏
I am a big fan of Firstpost (Palki actually). With all due respect it’s a little tough to watch the entire piece by this new anchor. There are a lot of pauses and mispronunciation. The rhythm and flow is just now there.
HAI ROMANIA !!!
Im from the US and proud of our girls, but this was wrong
Biased olympic. There’s no hope even after playing well
JUSTICE FOR ROMANIA 🇷🇴 Let's don't forget the second place also.i don't understand how can take silver when u was out of the floor 2 times and not with a small step,with all body ...i really think these judges must be banned in the future.
So sorry for Romania 🇷🇴 and this athlete And we are not surprised at this disastrous Olympics...They made a mockery of God at the beginning...you sow what you reap: chaos and the worst Olympics ever!!! Am not even watching except short news clips here
Like the US swimmers, they cannot humanly possible accept to be lost.
I hope this gymnast knows that her performance was great and never to stop doing what she is so great at, simply because of a colosal mistake by judges
I’m American and I think this was wrong. If a score was to be challenged it should have been done before the scores were tallied.
Doesn't work that way. Remember they see a "tallied" score immediately. Nothing is finalized, but scores show on the scoreboard during the session. This all occurred well before the actual medal ceremony.
@@KatieBellino you are a troll! You are not ashemed to steal and to bring pueril reasons! Shame of you to encourage injustice!
1. France offends ppl with its opening ceremony. Referencing the Last Supper.
2. The sleeping accommodations are mediocre for all Olympian’s to sleep in. Some Olympian’s didn’t have a good night’s sleep before their competition, therefore they didn’t perform at their best.
3. The food cafeteria was lacking enough protein for the Olympian’s. They fixed the problem, but what about the Olympian’s that were counting on the proper nutrition at the beginning?
3. Now the judges screw up in scoring and rip a medal from one gymnast to give it to the correct gymnast.
I am also not going to watch the closing ceremony.
As to the last point, no literal medal was ripped away. The medal ceremony had not occurred. This was literally at the end of the session for floor immediately following the last gymnast. The tentative scores were on the board, an appeal occurred, and things were immediately corrected. The only ripping was a too early celebration because of the tentative bronze that was showing for the Romanian.
dont forget the athletes who got sick because of the poo in the river they had to swim in.
@@sumsumcorda8 oh my gosh. For real?
@@KatieBellino I stand corrected. The medals had not been given out. Just the initial scores. Poor girl. I feel bad for her.
@@MegaBpop yes! They got sick with ecoli bacteria
I fully agree with Romania. That judging was atrocious
I still cannot understand how Biles got a medal after stepping out two times from the carpet, with both legs... aside the way the judges scored Ana and Sabrina
Simone's starting difficulty was 6.9, which is insanely high. She was given the largest penalty (0.3) for the two steps out of bounds, so did lose 0.6 for those two times out of the carpet. Her execution was only given 7.8. I believe Ana's difficulty was more like 5.8, so that's how Simone was able to stay ahead of her.
You're ignoring the perspective of Chiles.
If the move she did should indeed have got her +0.1 points and it was not granted by the judges, that was a mistake from the judges.
If it had not been rectified, she would unfairly be out of the podium.
There's no use trying to educate these people. They already decided the Romanian was robbed. Even if the American was the one robbed until they fought for justice.
One of the worst fucking olympics!!
Probably the worst Olympics in living memory... at least since Munich.
I may be a US citizen, but I say give back the gold medal to its rightful athlete! So sick of the Olympics being nothing but a political stunt! Glad that Romania is taking a stand!
You really weren't paying attention. 🙄
The matter is with the bronze medal not the gold one (won fair and square by Rebeca Andrade).
How shocking for the young woman! My condolences to her and the whole team. Judges and officials owe it to the athletes to assess the performance carefully and submit correct marks without bowing to political pressure or preference.
This also happened to our boxers. They have been robbed out of the chance to compete in the finals.
That was not okay.
