Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu has been suspended for two years following a doping violation. The sanction was announced on November 5, 2026.

Barbosu earned the bronze medal in the women's floor exercise final at the 2024 Paris Olympics in August 2024. That competition was marked by controversy after a scoring dispute involving American gymnast Jordan Chiles.

The two-year ban renders Barbosu ineligible to participate in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games.
