Chiles and Voniea

There should be a section under the judging controversy about the Gymnastics floor event on Monday that resulted from Jordan Chiles inquiry and Sabrina Voinea being denied the Bronze after initially winning it. It becoming a big thing or caused quit a bit of controversy and needs to be mentioned somewhere. MyEditsJ3 (talk) 17:17, 7 August 2024 (UTC)MyEditsJ3MyEditsJ3 (talk) 17:17, 7 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Was it a big thing anywhere but in tabloid, populist, US media? HiLo48 (talk) 23:37, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
It should also be mentioned that Sabrina Voinea did in fact not touched the ground. As footage shows. The reason for the judge’s refusal to reconsider is because the time has already passed.

“The 17-year-old was given a 0.1 deduction for stepping out of bounds during her routine, resulting in a final score of 13.700. However, replays seemingly showed her heel remaining inbounds.” 213.233.108.45 (talk) 17:27, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Seine water quality

After swimming in the Seine during a womens' triathlon, a Swedish triathlete became sick. It can be better to group them as multiple athletes as in the media instead of listing them individua https://apnews.com/article/2024-olympics-paris-seine-water-quality-triathlon-a34cd5733fe659e10447c4f6af1998b4

"The performance of Australian b-girl Rachael "Raygun" Gunn during her breakdancing round-robin battle against Logan "Logistx" Edra garnered widespread mockery online." Actually, she was mocked for all three round-robin battles, not just Logistx. In fact most of the online memes seem to come from her battles with Syssy and Nicka.
