Kirsty Coventry's election as the first female president of the IOC may seem like a positive step for the organisation, but she is very much the establishment's choice, with Thomas Bach lobbying hard for her (against the rules, it should be said).
Do not expect reform or change.
Samuel Eto’o is on the case!

Mad scoop by @tariqpanja.bsky.social
Breaking news:
TNT gets the English sublicense deal for the Club World Cup.
24 games, joint production of studio shows with DAZN… and a bit of a change of course by DAZN? Or not?
www.inquirer.com/soccer/club-... via @phillysport.bsky.social @inquirer.com
Somewhat buried in an FT piece about DAZN’s wish to become the N̶e̶t̶f̶l̶i̶x̶ Spotify of Sports, is another monumental loss, this time growing to $1.4bn (!!) for the year to 2023, was $1.2 bn in 2022, $2.3bn in 2021 and $1.3bn in 2020. Eye watering numbers but now in business with KSA so …
Infantino beside himself with happiness for being name-checked by Trump
