Also, I finally found out the reason Kickboxing had its event program halved by the IWGA.

 

Excerpt from WAKO President’s letter to national federations informing about the 2022 World Games: “WAKO has been restricted to participating in one discipline, K-1 rules, in 3 male and 3 female weight classes, for a total of 48 Athletes. The reason for only 48 atlhetes is a direct consequence of ONE positive doping test at the last World Games in Wroclaw. We all have a responsibility to eradicate doping in sport, so I ask that you take specific measures to educate and improve the situation in your respective countries.”

The sport's quota have been cut because of a single doping test? Try that at the Olympics and you'll end up with a grand total of four events in two sports or something..

Was looking at the events programme, and it seems that they're will be only women events in pétanque/lyonnaise . Why is that ?

I have no clue. I know the sport had a rough time at Wroclaw 2017, but cutting a whole gender and a whole discipline seems harsh in that case. I’m sure it has to do with something else.
