Four seconds… 30 years… the fact is; she *”DIDN’T EARN IT!!!”*
Lol. Olympics have been a joke. 2028 won’t happen with how the world is going who cares. Only time Americans are “united” is during the Olympics otherwise we’re always so very apart.
THE JUDGES AND FIG HAVE DROPPED THE BALL SO MANY TIMES AT THIS POINT THE ONLY FIX IS TO GIVE ALL 3 OF THEM A BRONZE MEDAL, ESP. CONSIDERING SABRINA WAS THE ACTUAL WINNER OF THE BRONZE MEDAL.
These judges need to be EXPOSED! WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES?? Both Romania and USA coaches had to review for their athletes and found faults…failure of the judges..punishing athletes for what they – Olympic Judges failed to do!
The girl from Romania deserve this bronze medal
IOC is showing their racism and displeasure of the display of pure respect and love shown by Jordan and Simon towards Rebecca. Its the podium celebration stupid.
The USA already won tons of medals. Let the Romanian girl who actually won 3rd place get her one medal back. The US Olympic committee is so greedy it’s disgusting.
Sincerely,
An American.
You guys ought to be ashamed of yourselves for the mishaps, Jordan C, should never get her metal taken away, that’s unfair to both girls, they should give both of them a medal 🥇. Shame on y’all “Paris”… other than that it was a beautiful Olympic..🎉❤
4 seconds, tha’ts an excuse. A load of garbage. At this point Jordan and Ana both deserve the bronze. The judges scrrewed this one up. No fair to any if these ladies.
What a mess
She needs to return the medal because they scored her wrong to begin with and saying the inquiry was 4 SECONDS too late to correct THEIR mistake.
Wow, how ridiculous is that? If she has to return the medal, all the judges should be fired and never allowed to be an Olympic judge again.
BLACK PRIVILEGE cause this… they wanted 3 BLACK girls to be on the podium
Who had a stopwatch timing the 1:04 minutes to make this decision? This is a travesty, and I wouldn’t doubt that this was invented by the Olympic Committee, since the judges accepted the appeal at the time. It wasn’t Jordan Chiles’ fault that the judges made the mistake! She rightfully won the Bronze medal, and judges should have used the right score in the first place! Shame on the IOC for making such a decision? Can this decision be appealed 4 days later, like the Romanian appeal?
The reporting is lying by omission. Romania filed two suits: one from Ana Barbosu, one from Sabrina Voinea. Sabrina’s referred to being wrongly penalized for an OB she did not commit. Without the judges’ mistake, Sabrina would have scored higher than Jordan, even with the revised score.The CSA analyzed Sabrina’s evidence and admitted that she was wrongly penalized, but rejected her appeal for the same reason they rejected the South Korean gymnast’s appeal: not establishing a precedent when a routine is re-judged in a court of law. Ana’s appeal was simpler: procedure infringement, and it was easier for the judges to go along with that. The American media doesn’t say a word about the other appeal which practically shows that the medal never truly belonged to Jordan! They keep pretending everything was just about those 4 seconds. No, it is not about those 4 seconds, it’s about Sabrina being misjudged in the first place, and Jordan claiming a medal which never truly belonged to her.
Exactly! If Sabrina had been graded correctly, Jordan would have still been behind her.
Louder 📢
Yes, that medal did not belong to the US no matter how you put it
This whole thing was handled so badly by the ioc they should be ashamed of themselves on both counts
The olympics are just full of incompetent people lol You’d think after years of doing these events, they’d know better but I guess theyre just jackasses
Really great job to have the most important detail in the thumbnail, but nowhere in the actual video.
She should give it back with the words “I still beat you” Etched in!
Give her the bronze so she can sell it and help her Mom repay the victims she stole money from! Ms Chiles is a thief.
How does it make sense to give people 1 min to make an appeal??? Olympic Committee and rules need to be investigated. I believe at this point the Romanian girl deserves the medal as well
