Jordan Chiles believes that Ana Barbosu's coach at the Olympic Games in Paris is the fault of the scenes of destruction in last year who has felt a feud that is still underway.
While Barbosu celebrated bronze in the final of the women's soil during the competitions, Chiles and her American team – led by her coach Cecile Landi – spoke her score from her routine, in the conviction that her split jump was not rated properly.
The jury members agreed, shot Chile to third place and left Barbosu in tears and she fell from the medal positions. Days later, the Romanian Gymnastics Federation appealed and said that the Chiles team did not dispute the score in the assigned deadline of one minute.
The arbitration of the sport confirmed the profession and Barbosu received a bronze medal in Bucharest. In the meantime, the Romanian Prime Minister threatened to boycott the final ceremony.
Since then, Chiles still disputes the judgment through the courts with the support of our gymnastics. But she thought about the Saga so far in her new book 'I'm that girl'.
She wrote: 'I was crushed and angry. All this would not have happened if the coach of Ana, who knew that Cecile had submitted an investigation immediately after my floor routine, had waited for the research results to arrive before Ana allowed the stage and held her flag.

“That was very unusual and premature. Our coaches would not have allowed us to do that. Everyone knows that you do not celebrate after everything is final – and a request for my score was announced. '
She continued: 'The fact that the validity of my medal was questioned after the fact – days after the medal recerior had taken place – was surprising and outrageous for me.
'Once the medal recerior has happened, it is the end result unless a violation of the medicine or the rules is discovered. That had been the case with every Olympic Games in History. '
Ironically, the Barbosu coach was Patrick Kiens day – who has since been hired by the World Champions Center in Texas, where Chile and Simone Biles practice.

“No, it's not over yet. It's still going on, “said the 23-year-old.
'My lawyers and my lawyers are those who explain everything. And they are the ones who take control. '

'I can absolutely only do so much for myself, is really a focus on my mental (health) …
'I will continue to fight and understand that I can only determine what I can do with myself and leave everything else at the back or my lawyer, my lawyer keeps doing what they can do to fight for that.
'I can't determine what happens at the end of the day. I just know what is good with me and that I always keep watching. '
