It was a 13.766 for Chiles, pushing her from a sixth-place finish to the podium.

It’s the first individual medal for Chiles in her Olympics career.

Biles added a silver to her tally after failing to reach the podium on the balance beam. She ended her time in Paris with four medals, including three gold, as she returned to the world stage following a bout with the twisties in the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.
Barbosu and fellow Romanian athlete Sabrina Maneca-Voinea fell out of the top five. Barbosu was beginning to celebrate her podium finish when she learned of Chiles getting bronze.
