U.S. gymnast Jordan Chiles was stripped of her floor exercise bronze medal Sunday by the International Olympic Committee after a scoring inquiry was deemed invalid. Chiles is the only gymnast in history to be stripped of an Olympic medal for reasons other than age falsification or failed drug tests. The bronze medal debacle is the sport's most high-profile controversy since the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, the site of the biggest scandal in Olympic gymnastics history. Jordan Chiles competes during the Women's Gymnastics Floor Routine final competition at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics, at the Bercy Arena in Paris, on Aug. 5, 2024. The U.S. women's gymnastics team, which initially finished fourth in 2000, was awarded the bronze medal in 2010 after the Chinese team was disqualified.

Biles submitted a new element on the uneven bars for consideration to the International Gymnastics Federation on Friday. Simone Biles has submitted an original skill on the Uneven Bars! Asked about the vault, Biles’ coach Cecile Landi smiled broadly. She earned her first named move in 2013, on the floor exercise and three of her elements — the Biles on beam, Biles II on floor, Biles and now Biles II on vault — rank as the most difficult skills on their respective apparatus. At the Tokyo Games in 2021, Biles withdrew from the team competition after battling the twisties.
