Jordan Chiles Appeals Olympic Bronze Medal Decision With New Video Evidence

Chiles' legal team argues that video footage proves her inquiry was made within the permitted time, challenging the CAS ruling.

  • Jordan Chiles has filed a second appeal to the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland to reclaim her bronze medal from the 2024 Paris Olympics.
  • Chiles' attorneys argue that new video and audio evidence from a documentary crew shows her coach made the inquiry within the one-minute deadline.
  • The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) had previously ruled that the inquiry was four seconds late, leading to Chiles being stripped of her medal.
  • Chiles' legal team claims CAS did not consider this crucial evidence and that the initial hearing was unfairly expedited.
  • The Swiss court's decision on whether to reopen the case is expected within the next four to six months.
