Jordan Chiles initially finished fifth in the women's floor exercise final at the 2024 Paris Olympics but was awarded a bronze medal after her coach filed a successful inquiry about her score. This decision is now under legal challenge, centering on whether the inquiry was timely. Chiles reflected on her experiences since the competition, acknowledging the valuable lessons learned, the support received, and the personal growth through the ordeal, despite the struggles faced over the past year.
A year ago today I walked off the floor in Paris with a bronze medal—and lessons I'll carry with me for life. The hardest moments really do teach you the most. This year had its highs, but the lows hit different.
Every setback and every disappointment made me dig deeper and showed me what I'm truly made of. It also showed me who's really in my corner.
Even when something's taken from you—your truth and your worth is... Untouchable.
To everyone who held me down this past year, who sent prayers, messages, and love when I needed it most—you reminded me I'm never on this journey alone.
