- Jordan Chiles, a 23-year-old gymnast from UCLA, had a bronze medal stripped after it was ruled the Team USA submitted an inquiry in the floor exercise six seconds too late. KTLA's Omar Lewis reports on Sunday, Aug. 11, 2024.
KTLA 5 News - Keeping Southern Californians informed since 1947.
The only Olympian in history to be stripped because of a judges decision. A damn shame is what it is
Not only that, they AGREE that she placed 3rd, it was just four seconds too late 🙄
Actually the Romanian was the first Olympian that was stripped of the medal because of a judge decision.
No, because Jordan's coaches didn't submit the inquiry in the proper time
False, this has happened before to other athletes
@@bca-biciclindcuaxel7527 4 seconds difference and 5 days late
Those judges should be stripped of their positions immediately… This is terrible
It was a shame what they did to try to cheat and get the three colored women on one podium picture trying to push DIBS outside of the country and completely disrespected the Romanian girl which had a better performance
Mistakes happen, the US coach messed this up by not moving quick enough with the dispute.
The Olympic committee should have taken their time before handing the medals, this was a blunder on both sides
@@TheCrucifiedMessiah-q7u you should do better. The next time something bad happens to you, I hope someone says: DO BETTER.
@@TheCrucifiedMessiah-q7u I can't wait till you're about to taste victory , then someone is going to say " Sweetie, this is life! Simply put - she should have done a little better " karama always finds a way to come back around
Such a mess. Both counties said they would be happy splitting the bronze award. The officials messed up on both scores. Instead of making it right - they put 2 athletes in distress. Such a bad look for the sport.
3 athletes*
Exactly. What happened to ties!
Countries*
@@successfulMillennial hello my fellow grammar/ortograffy nazzi
@@successfulMillennialit’s obviously a typo
If the judges would have scored her performance correctly, she would have won anyway. The judges were wrong and should be fined or fired.
It was done on purpose because she went last after the Romanians they didn’t want to award her properly
At this point, they should have let Jordan keep her bronze, and honor Sabrina with one too. It wasn't fair for both of them!
No. You don't get a participation medal so feelings aren't hurt. That's life im afraid. America and Romania will have to submit a complaint to remove the incompetent judges so it doesn't happen again. That's the solution.
Your solution is why kids grow up entitled. Everybody wins so feelings aren't hurt. In this situation one gymnast deserved the bronze with correct scores. All they can do is correct the scores and give the rightful person the medal and apologise.
Lol. A woke joke
Agree!
What a disaster. The most incompetent judges hands down. Both girls deserve their bronze as they were embarrassed greatly. What a shame fr
Agree, just give it to both, or even all three, ( the two Romanians who tied ), because they totally screwed up the scoring, not the gymnasts faults.
Giving coaches ONE MINUTE to submit an inquiry is absolutely ridiculous - especially if the judges made a mistake. Whoever came up with that rule is a grade A moron.
4 seconds is a minute, they did it as fast as possible, they had to write it out, the judges knew they were filing and they accepted, end of story, if u feel bad because they were harsh to all involved, which i do, make it right the proper way. Her gogean was around, she got 13.766 for bronze. Romania has an issue with their scores, u cannot steal a tenth from Jos d score and said u must write this all out, ya giver her a second to do it. 4 seconds is a joke because they did niot give her diffulty lol
It's absolutely bonkers to think anyone can get only one minute to dispute something at that level... like it's some kids game !!!
The BS rule is there to give the officials a wiggle room.
How much time do they need to protest? The coaches know each gymnast(s) point calculations of all routines. The judges are right there on the floor. As soon as the score is flashed, the coach can immediately walk over to the judges. It's simple. They time restriction cuts down on the opportunity for ground swell of social media to influence a "protest."
Ita the same for all
At this point, neither of them should want the bronze medal that has so much scrutiny attached to it. Like you kinda won, but you kinda didn't. I'm just confused why you can't protest a score outside of 60 seconds but you can still protest a medal one week later.
Doesn't even make any sense
Right. That makes no sense. The Olympic committee looks very unprofessional right now.
Makes perfect sense.
DEI allowed for this stupid "Difficulty challenge" nonsense.
Back on the day if you f-ed up then you got no medal.
Now you can do a Simone Biles, cry, and get pity medals
The Olympics has been a disaster from the sickening opening.
👏🏽👏🏽💯💯
Yes
And don’t forget about the two men who took gold in woman’s boxing. 🤢
No medal should have been awarded until all of the inquiries and appeals were filed. This would have avoided all this controversy. If the judges had gotten the scores correct to begin with all of this would be a non issue. I feel bad for all the athletes involved. In my opinion, all the fault lies with the judges and committee.
Where’s the affirmative action IOC, y’all only favoring black lives matters women athletes
The Romanian got a 0.1 deduction even if she didn't step out of the floor.... so even if Jordan got her score adjusted, Jordan still wouldn't get the bronze if the Romanian got her fair score also.
So because the judges miscalculated her difficulty score, and she was four seconds late in alerting them to the fact, SHE loses her RIGHTLY earned bronze medal?
Yeah, that is BS.
They should've just gave Jordan and the 2 Romanians Bronze medals and called it a day.
Not really. The Romanians files an inquiry after one of their gymnasts was unfairly penalized. But since their inquiry was also over the one minute time window their inquiry was denied. The question is why did they accept the inquiry by the Americans and not the Romanians? Both inquiries were over the one minute window. The racism charge I’ve heard from other news outlets is ridiculous
@terryr7622 exactly..it seemed very bias towards America.
The gymnastics judges deducted 0.3 points from Simone because she didn't "properly" salute them after finishing her one routine. So, on the next finish, she gave them a 5-minute salute, LOL! Gymnastics is messier and pettier than it ought to be!
Life is rife with disappointments. That one minute rule is absolutely ridiculous.
Since it wasn’t either woman’s fault they should get both bronze
I disagree. Only the athlete with the higher score should get the bronze. In this case, that was Jordan.
@@FitBabe But in the end, the gymnastics committee screwed her over, IMO! But, like I stated earlier, she'll get through this, with the continued love and support from family and TRUE friends!
@@ChrisYEmpath very true. They definitely screwed her over. I’m rooting for her!
Hopefully, the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics will be better across the board!
Judges failed both gymnast!!!!
This is BS! The judges are improper. Absolutely disgusting!
This is justice! Americans don't want her DEI representing us! So glad they did this. She never should have been chosen in the first place
This Is BS. Completely Unprofessional & Makes Zero Sense. The Olympic Committee Needs To Issue An Apology To Both Jordan & Sabrina. Jordan Should Be Able To Keep Her Medal & Sabrina Should Be Given One. I'm So Sick & Tired Of Hearing Ana's Name. This Is Ridiculous.
You said it.
Lol. U get a medal for participating? U must be a woke from california. Its simple. There are rules and scores. U gotta follow them.
@@Charlie-pz1iv I'm Not Sure Who You're Referring To So I'll Answer For Both. Sabrina Deserves A Medal Because She Was Cheated Out Of Her Score & Potentially Was The One Who Was Supposed To Have Bronze, Jordan Deserves A Medal Because She Was Also Cheated Out Of Her Score & Already Given One Due To An Error The Judges Made. I Am Aware There Are Rules & They Must Be Followed But Instead Of Blaming Athletes Let's Hold The Judges Responsible Because Clearly You Can't Enforce Rules When You Don't Follow Them Yourself. I'm Not A "Woke From Nowhere" & Don't Come For Me Unless I Send For You ✌🏽.
"I'm So Sick & Tired Of Hearing Ana's Name." Who is Ana?
@@nikeriaelliott9288 u cant give out medals to both. We can do 2 things here. Follow the original scores or have a complete appeals process to figure out the fair scores. If a judge is found erroneously biased they can still reverse a medal. As of now its all being done wrong. I want u to admit u are a democrat from California. 😏
The Judges made a terrible mistake, TWICE lol.
Team USA has sent video evidence to prove that they made the inquiry request not just once but twice within the 1 minute span that they were allowed.
Well, that may be true, but the Romanian gymnast did not step out of bounds either, so maybe they should both get bronze medals.
The judges shouldn’t have awarded the medal until after all the appeals. Medal ceremony could have been postponed to the last day of the Olympics.
So wrong! Let them both get a bronze. It was the judges mistake. Nobody should be stripped of a medal once given and Ana Barbosu should only agree if they both get bronze but that will never happen. Jordan, you are such a joy to watch and you should be very proud of all that you have accomplished over the years.
Not her fault. Judges didn’t get it right! 🤷🏻♀️
Not the Romania athletes fault either.
First time I've seen a gymnast lose by 4 seconds.
So wait, she should've won bronze but because the judges didn't score correctly, she didn't get it and the coaches have seconds to deal with the shock and run over to argue it, and because they were four seconds too late, she loses the metal which she should have won in the first place 🤔 The math isn't mathing
No. The romanian athlete was incorrectly scored so she should have won the bronze. They appealled and it was rejected. America appalled and their score was upgraded and that's how she win the bronze. The romanian athlete was incorrectly marked down for difficulty, they penalised her for a move she did correctly and got marked down, that said it gave the bronze to the american. It is the judges fault
@@cha9165Ana was NOT incorrectly scored, Jordan WAS incorrectly scored in the first place. And the JUDGES accepted the appeal from Jordan's coach. Fu(king case dismissed; Jordan 100% deserved 3rd place.
@@julieliang9266no, Jordan deserved 4th place.
And the judges aren't judging (properly). They must've imbibed too much of that Parisian wine before the gymnastics meet! Did anyone judge their "blood alcohol" level??????
@@Rusyn1910 how, explain. She was better and had more difficulty which is why her score was 13.766 and the third best of that event.
Wow!!! All because the judge did wrong. It wasn’t even the player. Unbelievable!!!!
What an embarrassment. Those judges clearly should never judge again!
Now there is a new video showing her coach did appeal on time but the IOC failed to note the time when the appeal was filed.
Because Jordan was last to perform her routine, her coaches only had 1 minute to submit the inquiry which makes NO sense because Jordan's routine is 1 min 27 sec long…how can they even have the time to rewatch it AND appeal?
While everyone else had 4 minutes to submit their inquiry. + it was the judges mistake to begin with for > failing < to giver her 0.10 she Earned from her leap.
Thanks for more "factual" information.
The judges deprived Ana Barbosu and Sabrina Voinea by medals due to a series of mistakes on their side, unacceptable to this level of competition..
For Sabrina its cristal clear there for everybody that she didn't step out of the floor as even the commentator confirmed twice she didn't and those jusges I don't know were on their dreams was seeing the contrast...
How idiot, cruel and insane is all these !!!!
Theves ...
This is awful. To do that to a Bronze recipient or any recipient after the fact, and podium moment? Once you place that medal on the Olympian it should be too late. No regard for the mental suffering of the competitor. It's not her fault the judges can't get their act together. The decision should have been final. This year's Olympics is just a huge disappointment. Ms.Chiles should sue the Olympic Committee for the embarrassment and mental anguish for millions of dollars over this. Her reputation and love for her sport will forever be marred. How could they see her excitement in her winning photos and time during the games and extinguish that. I think they've taken away something that can never be replaced now, and I'm not even talking about the medal. They took her spirit.
This is what she gets for what her mom Gina did.
Exactly. It's already been awarded. This is unprofessional. What a precedence to set in Olympic history and the IOC looks very corrupt and irrational.
@@mjamitche5245 Jordan lost to begin with. The appeal came too late. They shouldn’t even allow appeals.
@@aarontoalet Her mom is the ex-felon, not Jordan!
@@mjamitche5245 IOC is sus in many ways!!!!!
IOC took 12yrs to award gold to Team USA London track stars and 4yrs for Team USA Tokyo figure skaters all due to Russian doping, but they strip an award super quick over a mess of their own making.
BS. The judge should be fired.
Taking break from social media whilst on social media is diabolical
The worst Olympics ever
But she EARNED the point modification but just appealed .4 seconds too late? I don't know if I'd want to be awarded a medal like that🤦🏻♀️
Officially done with the Olympics….
I don't bother to watch, after years of clearly B.S. judging in Figure Skating, I was done years ago.
Of course you are...like all of us...they are going to finish tommorow,that s why u r done...😅😅😅
What a disGrace that you have a time limit on the judges Mistake! Deserve a medal because of this! This makes me not want to even watch The Olympics anymore! 😡
That is BS! They should do the right thing and give them both metal rather than do this!
This is the new version of miss phillipines getting second then the crown from Colombia 2015
The Olympics are a joke this year !
This is an outrage. Basically she deserves her medal but the judges stole it because of 4 seconds? The judges should be ashamed of themselves. They have hurt the new holder of Jordan’s medal as well. Terrible, these so-called judges should be banned for their blunders & callous conduct.
They shouldn't have accepted the inquiry if the deadline had past. They incorrectly entered her score, then incorrectly accepted the inquiry supposedly "past" the deadline. No one apparently timed anything. They're relying on random arbitrary videos. They failed twice, then further penalized the athlete by retroactively removing their own decision.
Yeah they’d have to beat me to get that bronze back. Literally!!!
Both gymnasts should have the bronze medal, IMHO.
She should be proud of her gold medal. She deserves 2 gold medals. She did such an incredible job representing the United States.
The Olympics have gone total Woke. I don’t watch it anymore. I am glad I didn’t see the opening ceremonies.
That is total BS. It is the judges fault period.
This is grievous. That bronze was hers. She is paying for the judge's mistakes. I hope this is addressed.
unfair and ridiculous
The Olympics used to unite the world & elevate people above their politics & country's wars. This Olympics sows division & and disrespect. Italy was a horrible choice, too.
1 2 3 no take backs
It’s the judges fault, therefore, they SHOULD fork up another medal. Neither should have to fight for it. The judges and committee are such a joke.
It's a shame that she has to return her medal.
They should have just given the bronze to all three of them since it was the judges who screwed up.
This is one of the worse Olympics. First the women's boxing was won by a dude and then the judges weren't doing their job correctly causing other countries to submit reviews on the scoreboard.
Ms. Jordan Chiles YOU ARE AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION!🔥🌸💕WE SEE YOU🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
The Olympics have become a clown and pony show. It's a shame the athletes have to suffer from it.
This is just me, but if I was the Romanian, I would decline the bronze medal. I wouldn't want an award for something because of a technicality.
If you're going to tell the story, tell the WHOLE story.
This has to be so heartbreaking because the judges messed up all around from the judging to allowing it to be challenged four seconds over to embarrassing this girl
Due to judges not doing their job the first time. They cheated Jordon Chiles
Know that you are loved Jordan❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Justice has been served.
Chiles should get her 0.1 added back (it was already decided the day of competition), and Barbosu should get her 0.1 added back (she was deducted 0.1 for stepping out of bounds when the video showed she didn't). That would place Barbosu 3rd and Chiles 4th. Instead, the FIG and CAS made the most convoluted decision that made it fair to no one.
It's Sabrina Who Didn't Step Out Of Bounds Not Ana. Ana Barbosu Did In Fact Step Out Of Bounds & She Shouldn't Even Be In The Conversation To Begin With. This Is About Jordan & Sabrina. These Judges Are Just Ridiculous 🤦🏽♀️.
They never disputed the step out of bounds within the 4 minutes they had. They could have submitted an inquiry. Whatever inquiry that was submitted was rejected. We don't know if the neutral deduction actually had to do with out of bounds. Jordan's inquiry was accepted and was within the time frame or they wouldn't have accepted it. The judges decisions should stand as is. Going back days later and disputing judging has never been done officially in gymnastics. FIG and IOC don't get involved in judging. They don't need to set this level of unprecedented involvement into the judge's job, up to stripping medals for judging disputes. It unprofessional and demonstrates corruption. If these judges have made mistakes, fire them. But you hired them and let them do this job. They can all be fired afterward. But, to get involved like this by re-judging the competition later by a boardroom full of people who decide to strip medals, is really dangerous.
@@mjamitche5245The Romanians couldn't have disputed the step out because for some obscure reasons only the difficulty score can be disputed, and the Romanian gymnast was unfairly penalised for execution. Still that was completely the judges' mistake, and the Romanian gymnast (but another one) is the rightful bronze medalist.
This is so wrong.
And that’s why I haven’t watched a minute of the Olympics. The garbage just keeps coming.
Just don't return it.
Romania's going to be calling America we'll just keep telling them Jordan's not home😂😂
Thats okay, chiles still lives in the greatest country ever. Despite all its faults.
Award both! Ridiculous 😢
After all this, can’t they just give them both a medal,?
So basically Jordan still earned the extra points and medal, but Romania gets it on a 4 second technicality.
That face... "But a white person has never been allowed to beat me before!" 😢
Give them both a medal❤
Good!! The other girl didn’t step out of bounds.
God BLESS everyone in the world all the time!!!
It was alright when the Romanian had to face it, shouldn't be a problem now
It's a problem when the judge is actually made a mistake and not the competitors
Lets not forget that the Olympics is no longer AMATEUR. A 1 min time frame seems ridiculous to me .
Ignore social media, although rules are rules.
Crazy. She should share the bronze with the other athlete and they should provide a medal for each.
How they embarrassed the young Romanian in the stadium was so disgusting. This Olympic is a waste.
No surprises there. The olympics has turned into a real circus show now. Time for the olympics to come to an end. For good...
She must be talking with her uncle Jackie.
It's honestly disgraceful and distasteful to honor someone with something such as a 🏅 medal and then have the unamitigated gaul to take it back oh my God the nerve of these judges 😢
The Wokelympics are a joke. The Romanian won the bronze. Get over it.
I get the need to follow rules but 1 min? Why do they get such a short amount of time to file an appeal? There's a lot going with multiple people from the team competing at any given time. 1 min seems unreasonably short.
They did her wrong. Jordan you are the best🤩
This is so ridiculous it really made the whole thing look like a joke, the Olympic commitee really needs to clarify wtf happened here or they can never be trusted again with holding fair sporting events of any sort. Why was the medal given to the Romanian, then reversed to Chiles due to her coach complaining and then reversed again? Wtf happened there, what exactly did her coach say? They need to do a LOT of explaining
Apparently the judges missed a skill set that Jordan did. It wants to coach make the complaint about it they went back and washed the tape and realized they did miss something. The judges admitted they made a mistake. But now the Romanians are saying that the USA Coach made the call 47 seconds too late. But if the judges did their job right in the first place. Jordan would be in 3rd
Who cares what medals these gymnasts get. Gymnastics is a popularity contest. Judges determine the winners. You can have one judge score High and another judge score really low. Any event that requires judges do determine winner the results will always be questionable, perhaps
Favoritism towards certain athlete or country.
.
Should have come with up a better solution… bad for both girls
This Olympic situation and the whole kit and kabottle have been a train wreck. 🖕 Paris and the IOC.🇺🇸
Villain arc for 2028
Worst Olympics ever
This is so wrong!
Question: Why is a coach allowed to influence the judges score in the first place - Chiles was in 5th, then her coach persuaded the judges to move her up to 3rd position?
So basically her routine was more difficult than the winner but the coach wasn’t able to file in time. That’s nuts. I hope she knows that she performed at a bronze level.
The Romanian girl was ROBBED! Glad she ended up with the bronze after all. They wanted an all-black podium - woke Olympics.
Good cuz she took that from that Romanian girl without a second thought
What do you mean good? The judges made a mistake, the judges admitted to making a mistake. The Romanians are only protested because the mistake was caught 47 seconds too late? Is the judge's fault did they admitted to
Shame on that judge
Glad I didn’t watch these Olympics, too much controversy starting from the opening ceremonies to actual events.
No one’s been stripped before but how many times have they changed scores because of protesting? Past olympians just accepted the outcome , but this generation is a bunch of cry babies
Well when the judges don't judge a skill that affects your score that's an issue neither gymnast should be punished they both should get a bronze but the judge is completely screwed this up
Good call
