Simone Biles has rallied behind fellow US gymnast Jordan Chiles who is set to lose her Olympic bronze medal just five days after winning it.

The team USA poster girl said she was sending ‘so much love’ to her teammate, telling the 23-year-old to ‘keep your chin up’ as she faces being stripped of the medal she won in the women’s floor final on Monday.

Chiles came third in the event after her score of 13.666, which had initially placed her fifth, was bumped up by 0.1 following an appeal from the US coach.
