Overview
- Women’s Nordic combined will not be on the Milan–Cortina 2026 program, making it the only sport there without a women’s event.
- The IOC cites insufficient professionalization and low viewership for the women’s discipline as reasons for exclusion.
- Nathalie Armbruster expects to miss the Games and says she will be watching from home in February.
- Armbruster won last season’s overall World Cup, took the Seefeld Triple, and earned world championship silver, including in the mixed team in Trondheim.
- The sport’s Olympic future will be reviewed after 2026, and athletes are campaigning for inclusion at the 2030 Winter Games.
