Simone Biles Returns Home to USA After Olympics and Wild Night Out in Paris: ‘Never Been so Happy’

Every four years, at every Summer Olympic Games, iconic snapshots emerge that immortalize feats of greatness that wouldn’t seem humanly possible if we weren’t glued to our screens watching them play out in real time. Florence Griffith Joyner (Flo-Jo) with her arms in the air, celebrating her world records for the 100m and 200m sprints in Seoul in ‘88. That time Vince Carter dunked on a seven-footer on Team France in Sydney in 2000. Usain Bolt in Rio in ‘16, a meter ahead of his competitors, flashing a smile to the camera. Every photo of Simone Biles. And now, we have Sha’Carri Richardson in Paris in 2024, sprinting to the finish line of the 4x100m relay for Team USA looking over her right shoulder, staring victory in the face.

The 2024 Paris Olympics are officially over. The controversy surrounding them is not. In a shocking turn of events, American gymnast and two-time Olympian Jordan Chiles has been ordered to return her bronze medal from the women's Floor Exercise competition. On Sunday, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) upheld a ruling from the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) that stripped Chiles of her third-place win due to a technicality. I’ll get into the details, but let’s be clear; Jordan Chiles isn’t getting penalized because she performed poorly. Her medal is being stripped from her because of a judging error and a fight over four seconds. No matter how this mess ends, the backlash, scrutiny and racist abuse Chiles has been facing in the days since the games — when she should have been celebrating her victory — is heartbreaking and unfair.

What’s Happening To Jordan Chiles Is Unfair. Period.
