Eventing for example has many supporters with tons of money and a lot of connections. It will fight for its future - it’s not going to just say that’s ok and toddle off. Sailing has that as well. I could also see Eventing trying a new format that keeps it as mix of dressage and show jumping with maybe some sort of new third can that can be done in stadium. -
Ya that requires a… finesse I’m not sure she has. -
just found out there will be some from of qualification for the Taekwondo competition in Nagoya. only 16 athletes can participate in each event. The Asian Championship in Mongolia this month will act as the sole qualifier top 7 from each weight (Olympic and non-Olympic) + 1 host quota + 1 wildcard = 16 quarterfinal losers will be ranked based on their QF match result. (3 of them will qualify) https://worldtkd.simplycompete.com/files/eventDocuments/0df00d4e-dcbe-4b3b-aa2d-ce573a202074.pdf -

It could all go wrong when she has to explain why some sports are being cut after many many years. Baseball is the only one that ever has gone through that fully recently -

But makes me thing one of them could go. Maybe the outdoor ones based on bigger venue costs. -

Suspect that could backfire for the IOC. -
She really needs to work on being (or at least sounding) less snarky / sarcastic, it has bitten her in the past and it will keep biting her if she doesn’t address it. I think so far she’s been really bad at sounding conciliatory on controversial issues (whether it be Russia, Vladyslav Heraskevych or “women in sports”), but it’s too early to judge her on the changes she is making to the movement.

Or African. Or Asian. Or South/North/Central American. -
Same as with every single IOC president, past and future, including any other candidate: not happy with it, because sports and events I like are being removed or cut to ridiculously small numbers, and that's never going to change In terms of overall policies, they will all be the same: kind of flowing with the world's politics and trends. None of them are ever going to be amazing, none of them are ever going to be seen as great especially on a forum like this (besides maybe some in the past because there's always people thinking 'everything used to be better' ).

Or, and just hear me out, we add a few relays - and the 50 meters - to the swimming program. That could be a nice way to mix things up and at the same time give swimmers a chance to showcase themselves a bit more than in the currently limited pool program.
