Jordan Chiles' Sister Jazmin Says Olympian's 'Sportsmanship Is Unparalleled' amid Dispute Over Bronze Medal

"So proud," Jazmin wrote of the Team USA gymnast, who was stripped of her third-place win from the Paris Summer Olympics

Jordan Chiles' sister will always have the Olympian's back.

On Saturday, Aug. 17, the U.S. gymnast’s sister, Jazmin Chiles, continued to show her support for her sibling on social media after she was officially stripped of her Olympic bronze medal from the 2024 Paris Summer Games.

“My sister’s sportsmanship is unparalleled. She is the epitome of it. So proud,” Jazmin wrote in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter).

She also shared words of her encouragement for her sister after Jordan, 23, broke her silence following the Court of Arbitration for Sport’s (CAS) decision to take away her honor for the floor exercise final, which took place on Aug. 5.

“I love you baby sis, Jazmin wrote as she reposted Jordan’s statement on X on Aug. 15.

In her statement, Jordan said she was "overwhelmed by the love" she'd received amid the back-and-forth of appeals and called the decision to take her medal away “devastating” and “unjust.”

"I have no words,” the athlete, who won gold in the women’s team final with Team USA, added.

Jazmin’s latest posts follow her family calling out racists after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) said Jordan must return her medal.

Opening up about the decision and corresponding backlash on her Instagram Stories on Aug. 10 and Aug. 11, Jazmin said, "Racism is real, it exists, it is alive and well."

"They have officially, 5 days later, stripped her of one her medals,” she wrote. “Not because she didn't win, not because she was drugged, not because she stepped out of bounds, not because she wasn’t good enough. But because the judges failed to give her difficulty and forced an inquiry to be made."

The older sister added, "Her bronze was stripped over 4 seconds of time that would have never needed to happen if the judges did their job."

A judge for CAS ruled in favor of two Romanian gymnasts, Ana Barbosu and Sabrina Maneca-Voinea, who initially finished in fourth and fifth place in the final after Jordan’s score was changed to more accurately reflect the difficulty level of her routine.

On Aug. 12, USA Gymnastics announced in a statement on social media that CAS had denied Chiles’ appeal to reinstate the bronze medal after Barbosu, 18, and Maneca-Voinea, 17, challenged her placement in the final.

The Team USA star initially scored a 13.666 on her routine, putting her behind the Romanians, each with a score of 13.700. Jordan’s coach Cecile Landi appealed the score, arguing that her difficulty should have been higher to include credit for a leap that involved performing a split in the air while turning 540 degrees.

Jordan was then awarded a score of 13.766, landing her with the bronze medal and a spot on the podium alongside her teammate Simone Biles and Brazil's Rebeca Andrade.

However, CAS found that Landi submitted her challenge of Jordan’s first score one minute and four seconds after it was awarded — four seconds too late.

The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) attempted to appeal the decision, claiming there was video evidence to show Landi's appeal was made in time. But as of Aug. 12, the CAS said Barbosu is the only gymnast who will receive the bronze medal.

The Romanian gymnast was officially presented with the honor during a reallocation ceremony on Friday, Aug. 16. "I want to believe that the day will come when all three of us [Bărbosu, Chiles and Maneca-Voinea] will receive a bronze medal," Barbosu said.
