Sports and medal events cut from the 2032 Brisbane Olympics will have a path to return at future Summer Games, according to International Olympic Committee president Kirsty Coventry.
Her reassurance to the annual meeting of Summer Games sports bodies in Lausanne came after she warned in February of "uncomfortable" talks ahead to make future Olympic hosting more efficient.
The IOC aim to finalise within months the list of sports for Brisbane that Coventry previously told their leaders will be fewer than the 36 being staged at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
