The Court of Arbitration for Sport stated that had they been able to apply equitable principles, they would have awarded bronze medals to Jordan Chiles, Ana Barbosu, and Sabrina Maneca-Voinea, highlighting the FIG's lack of proper officiating and injustice experienced by the athletes during the Paris Olympics.
CAS noted specific failures of the International Gymnastics Federation concerning the timing of inquiries into athletes' scores, stating that a critical lapse occurred, leading to unfair repercussions for gymnasts involved.
The court's ruling emphasized that the FIG's oversight during the women's gymnastics floor exercise was not only unjust but also showed a complete lack of mechanisms in place for addressing scoring disputes.
