Groundbreaking but controversial - new IOC president Coventry

^{Published on 2025-03-21 06:25:37 - BBC}

Kirsty Coventry will become the 10th International Olympic Committee (IOC) president but why is she both a groundbreaking and controversial choice?

The article discusses the election of Kirsty Coventry as the new President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), marking a historic moment as she becomes the first woman and the first African to hold this position. Coventry, a former Olympic swimmer from Zimbabwe with seven Olympic medals, has been praised for her potential to bring fresh perspectives to the IOC. However, her appointment has stirred controversy due to her past support for the inclusion of Russian and Belarusian athletes in international competitions amidst geopolitical tensions, which has led to criticism from some quarters. Her leadership is anticipated to focus on issues like athlete welfare, gender equality, and the modernization of the Olympic movement, but her decisions will be closely watched given the current global sports landscape.
