CAS Declines to Revisit Decision That Denied Chiles Bronze.

The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) upgraded Romania's Ana Barbosu from fourth to third in the Paris 2024 women's floor final after a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

USA Gymnastics attempted to have CAS reconsider the decision, presenting new video evidence that they said proved the appeal was on time. However, on Monday, USA Gymnastics announced that CAS had denied their request.
