Latest World Championships Medal Count in the Road to Los Angeles 2028 2024-2028 Olympic Cycle Medal Count in the Road to Los Angeles 2028 2025 World Championships in the Road To Los Angeles 2028 Updated as of September 7th, 2025

Yes, correct. I would say 90-95% of the events have a "regular" World Championships, some of them held annually, some bi-annually, some even just once in the Olympic quadriennium (Football, Field Hockey, Equestrian). So the priority is on the "regular" World Championships, Equestrian will have World Championships in 2026 so in 2025 and 2027 no World Championships will be counted for that sport, and the medals won at the 2026 World Championships will not "expire" before the Olympics. Other sports like Athletics and Swimming have World Championships held bi-annually, so there are World Championships in 2025, no World Championships in 2026, and then again in 2027 which will "overwrite" the 2025 World Championships results (medals will be just added in the table "2024-2028 quadriennium World Championships medal count, but will be overwritten in the "Latest World Championships medal count"). Tennis and Golf must be treaten as "exceptions" because of course there are no proper World Championships. So the best solution I found is to count the year-end rankings and assign medals according to them. This will happen at the end of each year, because there would be no reasons in counting them only in some years and not in others. There are some other sports with some "exceptions", like for example Triathlon World Championships are based on a series of races contested during the season and not only on the final one, because the "World Champion" title is won by the athlete who wins the series ranking, and it would be weird if we considered a different results. Artistic Swimming also is contested in a very different format at WChs and the Olympics, you can read in this thread how we decided to assign the medals in our table. The general rule is that every single medal event of the following Olympic Games needs to be counted at least once during the Olympic quadriennium, it could be one (Football, Equestrian etc.), two (Athletics, Swimming etc.), three (Badminton, Fencing and all other sports where World Championships are held annually) or even four (Tennis, Golf, Road Cycling which has World Championships after the Olympics even in Olympic years, etc). You can find a complete list of "exceptions" for sports with a different system in each year's medal count page, for example here is the 2025 one. (look for the second table of the page after the calendar).

You are right, it's not currently possible to filter calendar events by sport, if not through the Search function. It is possible to filter by macro categories (Summer Olympic Sports, Winter Olympic sports, Paralympic Sports, non-Olympic sports, multi-sport games etc.), by clicking on the "All Calendar" arrow: I agree it would make sense to filter by sport in some situations, but if I create a new category for each sport there would be way too many of them. And one of the main feature of this website is to focus on many sports rather than a single one, so even if you search for Nordic Combined events you can filter by Winter Olympic Sports and then search if there are any Nordic Combined events in the week/month you are looking. And as you said, it's possible to search events through the Search function, even though it does not list them in chronological order (actually, it does, but by order they were created, not by the dates the events will start). But if you are searching for something more specific, like for example Beach Volleyball FIVB Pro Tour 2025 events, you would find them anyway in the search results.

That would surely be a great feature, but I think developing that would be very expensive/time consuming.
