Flavor Flav sent a message to gymnast Jordan Chiles following controversy surrounding her bronze medal win at the 2024 Paris Olympics
Team USA superfan Flavor Flav is supporting Jordan Chiles following her Olympic medal controversy.
Throughout the Olympics, Flav was seen rocking a custom Team USA clock necklace while cheering for athletes in Paris. Before the Games began, Flav became a sponsor of the women's water polo team, but his fandom didn't stop there. He also turned up to watch the women's gymnastics team in their competitions earlier this month.
Team Romania filed its own inquiry one day after the competition, claiming that Chiles' coaches were late submitting their request. The Court of Arbitration for Sport agreed, reverting Chiles' score and sending her back to fifth place. The International Olympic Committee announced on Sunday that the bronze medal will be reallocated to Barbosu.
Team USA, however, argued Chiles should be able to keep her medal. 'USA Gymnastics on Sunday formally submitted a letter and video evidence to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, conclusively establishing that Head Coach Cecile Landi's request to file an inquiry was submitted 47 seconds after the publishing of the score, within the 1-minute deadline required by FIG rule,' read a statement posted by USA Gymnastics via X on Sunday.
