Jordan Chiles earned her first individual Olympic medal in thrilling fashion, with her coach requesting a review that clinched her bronze medal finish.
Gina Chiles would have been happy either way. Whether the inquiry submitted by Jordan Chiles’ coach would move her onto the podium or keep her in fifth place during the floor exercise final on Monday, Gina was already proud. In the stands at Bercy Arena, she kept showering applause. Then she saw the standings reset. Her daughter was an Olympic bronze medalist.
“She has been wanting that individual medal at the Olympics and redeem herself from Tokyo,” Landi said, “and I think she did.” The memory of missing her routines on bars and beam during qualification in her Olympic debut three years ago fueled Chiles' pursuit of Paris. She entered the Tokyo Games having hit every competitive routine for a year straight. Then she did not make any event finals. She called her parents who were half a world away, tearfully telling them she had failed.
