The tug of war over the Olympic bronze medal in women’s gymnastics has reached a dramatic conclusion, taking a toll on all the athletes involved and underscoring the intense and often heart-wrenching nature of competitive sports.
Jordan Chiles, 23, who left the Paris Olympics with a bronze medal for the women’s individual floor exercise final, has been stripped of her medal after the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) announced its final decision.
Following the announcement, the heartbroken Team USA star revealed that she was taking a break from social media.
