Episode Details

Nordic combined, the last all-male Winter Olympic sport since 1924, is axed for 2030 in the French Alps—but don’t pack your skis just yet. The IOC, after years of dwindling viewership, online buzz, and ticket sales, opted not to add a women’s event despite pressure from a New York senator.

Nordic combined might not be gone forever: it’s still on the table for 2034 in Utah.
