2000 yes, but mainly and was also even provisionally excluded from the Athens 2004 games program, but our NOC joined a lobby coallition with French Canoe federation, went to the court and succeeded to maintain it at the games. -

Will have hidden consequences for the number of athletes competing in each discipline and the numbers of medals awarded, that is what is worrying. Also, the other long term argument is: Who owns the sports at the Olympics? The federations that run them, or the IOC? At the moment this is a big powergrab by the IOC. -

Another exemple. Canoe slalom was supposed to be excluded for the 1996 or 2000 games (don't remember), not the whole canoeing sport. But really, having the commission chaired by a guy coming from one of the sport/discipline the most at risk (plus a couple of members from the commission also coming from other at risk sport/discipline) is the best argument that nothing substantial will come out of it. For a century, every IOC president has pledged at some point to review and cut the program left and right. No one succeeded. -
not sure why people got so excited about this "separating disciplines" things. Freestyle and Greco were always separate disciplines in IOC documents. nothing new and any news saying the UWW is trying to develop women's Greco is garbage and should be disregarded. there is no such a thing. they have an idea about developing the beach wrestling (which is indeed a terrible idea) in case they have to add more women's events (or replace men's events with women's events) but that's a long shot. nobody took beach wrestling seriously so far. I'm hearing about this since I was a kid and actually I was reading an old newspaper from 1960 (more or less) saying the same thing about the Greco at this moment men's Greco is more popular and diverse than men's freestyle around the world. men's freestyle is easily dominated by 4 countries. -
How is golf rated? Was it a success? In Brazil, nobody (or probably very few people) cares about it, but I suppose it's popular in many countries? -

It’s been hinted it be 2 first. Could also see what countires. Greco Roman is dominated by a very different base to Canoe Slalom. -

I expect the committee to judge each discipline by the following criteria 1. Revenue 2. Cost to host 3. Number of participating nations -

Wonder if Sailing is at risk as well. Suspect after June the campaigning will begin and thosw six months will be full of stories about it as stakeholders try and save their sport. Could be a bumpy ride
