Jordan Chiles files appeal with Swiss court in attempt to reclaim Olympic bronze medal

Jordan Chiles isn’t done trying to get her bronze medal back from the Paris Olympics.

The American gymnast officially filed a formal appeal with the Swiss Federal Tribunal on Monday in an attempt to overturn an earlier ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport that took her bronze medal that she won in the individual floor exercise in Paris away earlier this summer, according to .

The CAS, however, later determined that the appeal came four seconds late. That sparked this long battle — USA Gymnastics has said it submitted the inquiry with 13 seconds to spare, and that it didn’t have enough time to properly make its case — and .
