The decision outraged U.S. Olympic and gymnastics officials, and led to a torrent of online abuse against both Chiles and Ana Barbosu, the Romanian athlete who ended up with the bronze.
I wish they could assign a set of new judges to rescore Jordan, Ana and Sabrina’s floor routines based on video evidence. Seems like Jordan did deserve the new score, and Sabrina should not have been deducted a score for going out of bounds.

Way to traumatize all three athletes.
That would be most logical way of actions. With this Sabrina will get the bronze.
The problem with this approach is that it will be abused in the future with athletes always asking for sepaarate reviews
Exactly. They are afraid it would open a can of worms for all sports if they do this.
