American gymnast Jordan Childs is in danger of losing her floor exercise bronze medal. The Court of Arbitration for Sport voided the appeal made by U.S. coach Cecile Landy to have one-tenth of a point added to Childs' score.

The federation then restored Romania's Ana Barbosa to third place. Her teammates Sabrina and Maneca Boya is listed fourth. Childs is fifth. No word yet on whether Childs will be forced to surrender her medal.
