‘Racism Is Real’ Jordan Chiles’ Sister Rips Officials For Stripping Gymnast Of Bronze Medal At Olympics

Jordan Chiles has apparently been stripped of a bronze medal, and her sister is blasting officials on social media.

On Saturday morning, The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that Chiles’ score should not have increased on the women’s floor exercise final due to an improper inquiry that was submitted after the one-minute time limit.

The CAS says that Chiles’ original score of 13.666, which puts her in fifth place and outside of medaling,  would be reinstated.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled Saturday that the judging panel at the women’s floor exercise final improperly granted an inquiry that increased Chiles’ score and moved her into bronze medal position. The Swiss-based court ruled that the appeal was submitted past the one-minute deadline for inquiries and therefore should not have been granted.

As a result, it said, Chiles should have received a score of 13.666 in the event – which would’ve placed her fifth, just shy of the Olympic podium.

According to Jordan’s sister, Jazmin, the gymnast was stripped of her medal.

Jazmin ripped officials on social media for their decision.

“Please keep Jordan (and my family) in your prayers.”

“Racism is real, it exists, it is alive and well.’

“They have officially, 5 days later, stripped her of one of her medals.”

“Not because she didn’t win, not because she was drugged, not because she stepped out out of bounds. Not because she wasn’t good enough. But because the judges failed to give her difficutly and forced an inquiry to be made.”

“FOUR SECONDS. Her bronze was stripped over 4 seconds of time that would have never needed to happen if the judges did their job.”

“I love you baby sis. And I go yo back no matter what.”
