Tony Estanguet is chosen to be a member of the IOC before the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Reading
Tony Estanguet, the organizer of the Paris Olympics, was nominated to rejoin the International Olympic Committee (IOC). He is expected to be officially elected at the IOC meeting in March. Estanguet successfully led the Paris bid for the 2024 Summer Games and Paralympics for over nine years.
Over 100 IOC members will vote on Estanguet's membership, among other tasks like choosing future host cities. The IOC is made up of various individuals, including royalty, athletes, politicians, and business leaders.
Estanguet's return to the IOC is highly likely since he's a three-time Olympic canoeing champion. He already served as an IOC athlete member from 2013 to 2021.
Although elected by athletes in 2012, Estanguet's official start was delayed due to legal complexities. He will now be an independent member, meaning he can stay until he's 70 years old, with re-elections every eight years.
The upcoming IOC meeting in Greece will also see the election of a new president to replace Thomas Bach. Seven candidates are competing for the position.
