I-au luat medalia Anei Barbosu! Tribunalul Federal Elvețian a dispus trimiterea cazului spre rejudecare la TAS

Apelul depus de partea americană în scandalul bronzului olimpic de la sol a fost admis de Tribunalul Federal Elvețian. Ana Maria Barbosu, 19 ani, rămâne, cel puțin deocamdată, fără medalia olimpică.

Evergreen tweet.

An English-language (and Chiles-biased) take from Nancy Armour: https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...les-bronze-medal-cas-new-hearing/74888473007/. Essentially, it sounds like the appeals court is handing it back to CAS with the directive to review the rejected Netflix documentary evidence due to administrative errors that didn't give the US enough time to gather evidence in a timely manner

Holy shit, I thought the appeal would never be accepted. Just further makes the FIG and the CAS look like absolute fools.

The only acceptable outcome is to award both gymnasts the bronze.

I agree. Just award both of them a bronze.

Voinea should get one too, but it appears the appeal was not put in place to question the OOB, neutral deduction so that is Mama Voinea's fault.

I still have no idea what is happening with all this. Makes my head spin.
