Motherly instinct never fails to impress. Jordan Chiles felt that nourishing touch after she missed out on a spot in the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships team of the US. In spite of putting up a stellar display at the selection camp, a fall during her floor exercise marred her otherwise impressive performance. A disappointed Tokyo Olympics’ silver medallist had to see bestie Simone Biles securing the top spot with a stellar 55.700 score, thereby leading the team.
That is where Chiles’ mother Gina Chiles chipped in. She took to social media to pour her heart out for Jordan. While uplifting her daughter’s morale, Gina congratulated Jordan Chiles for another achievement she made at the selection camp.
“Vamos!”, says mother to Jordan Chiles

In the post, Gina shared her excitement at seeing ‘Chiles in Chile‘ while cheering her saying, “VAMOS” which means ‘let’s go’ or ‘Come on’ in Spanish.
