Romanian gymnast Ana Maria Barbosu ranked fourth in the women's floor exercise final on Monday in the artistic gymnastics competition at the Paris Olympic Games, while compatriot Sabrina Maneca-Voinea ranked fifth.
Barbosu was a bronze medallist for a few tens of seconds, but American Jordan Chiles filed an inquiry and her score was increased from 13.666 to 13.766, so she finished in third position.
Maneca-Voinea also challenged her scoring (13.700), but lost.
The gold medal went to Brazilian Rebeca Andrade (14.166), while the silver went to American Simone Biles (14.133).
Romania has not won an Olympic medal in artistic gymnastics since 2012 (London), when Sandra Izbasa won gold in vault, Catalina Ponor won silver in floor, and the Romanian women's team took bronze.
The Romanian women's gymnastics team qualified after 12 years to the Olympic Games. They ranked 7th in the team final, Ana Maria Barbosu finished 17th, and Amalia Ghigoarta 22nd in the all-around event, Sabrina Maneca-Voinea 8th on beam and 5th on floor, and Ana Barbosu 4th on floor.
