Jordan Chiles may lose the bronze medal she won in the women's gymnastics floor final after Romanian gymnasts Ana Barbosu and Sabrina Voinea, along with the Romanian Federation of Gymnastics, filed a protest with the International Federation of Gymnastics regarding an inquiry made by Chiles's coach.
Chiles had initially registered a score of 13.666, short of Barbosu's 13.700 score, but Chiles's coach Cecile Landi had filed an inquiry challenging the judge's decision revolving around a tour jeté full, or split leap. Essentially, Landi believed the judges' ruling on Chiles's difficulty score, or D score, was too low. The challenge was successful and Chiles went from fifth place to third, leapfrogging the Romanian gymnasts, who, in the protest, argued that the inquiry was improperly filed.
