Nordic combined is the only discipline in which women are not yet allowed to compete in the Olympic Games.
For years, the officials of the traditional sport of ski jumping and cross-country skiing were asked to do more for the athletes.
There are now enough athletes who could compete in the upcoming games in Italy in 2026.
But the IOC decided differently: it does not want to allow female combined athletes, because the entire sport may be removed from the program.
