Olympics' champion: New IOC president Kirsty Coventry inaugurated to start 8-year leadership

LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) — The first female and first African president of the IOC, Kirsty Coventry was inaugurated in the role Monday on the organization's 131st birthday with praise that the Olympic movement was 'in the best of hands.' Coventry, a two-time Olympic gold medalist in swimming for Zimbabwe, finally and formally takes office Tuesday aged just 41 after decisively winning a seven-candidate election in March to succeed Thomas Bach. Coventry cited her family including her two young daughters as 'my rocks, my inspiration' to lead the International Olympic Committee through the next eight years including the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles. 'You are my constant reminders of why we do what we do every single day,' Coventry said, addressing six-year-old Ella seated near the front of the ceremony 'You are a constant reminder of why this movement is relevant, why it needs to change, why we need to embrace the new ways,' the new president said. 'And you will be a constant reminder for many years to come on the decisions that we all take together.' Coventry said Olympic leaders were 'guardians of a platform ... to inspire, to change lives, to bring hope.' Bach's voice had cracked with emotion minutes earlier as he handed over a symbolic key to the presidency to his protégé in Olympic politics. The 71-year-old German lawyer, an Olympic champion in team fencing in 1976, leaves after the maximum 12 years in an office he said was now in the 'best of hands' with Coventry. 'I believe with all my heart that the Olympic movement is ready for the future,' said Bach, adding he had 'given all I could' to the IOC and the games. The ceremony took place in a temporary building in the gardens of Olympic House designed in the style of the Grand Palais in Paris that hosted fencing and taekwondo at the Summer Games last year. A steamy, humid day at the IOC's lakeside modern headquarters saw a sudden downpour of rain minutes before the scheduled start. It forced Bach and Coventry to shelter under a shared umbrella as they walked from the villa that was the former Olympic home. The hour-long ceremony included a four-minute montage of tributes to Bach, who now becomes the IOC's honorary president. He has expressed a wish to counsel his successor. Coventry's first day at the office features a closed-door session to hear the views of around 100 IOC members. They include current and former heads of state, business leaders and billionaires, past and current Olympic athletes, plus leaders of Olympic sports. ___ AP Olympics:

NFL offseason power rankings: No. 27 New York Giants have a coach and GM on the hottest seat

Other NFL team previews: 32. Titans | 31. Saints | 30. Browns | 29. Panthers | 28. Jets Nobody had to put New York Giants coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen on the hot seat. Their boss did. Advertisement The Giants went 3-14 last season. Giants co-owner John Mara decided Daboll and Schoen deserved another season, but he didn't seem too excited about it. 'It better not take too long because I've just about run out of patience,' Mara said. "That'll be a good sound bite for you tonight, huh?" Mara's meeting with the media after the announcement that Daboll and Schoen would return was weird. It seemed apologetic. He said he knew it was "not the most popular decision" among Giants fans. His meeting with the media was to "face the music." His assessment of the 2024 Giants was that "we stunk this year." The tone was so funereal you'd have guessed Mara was forced into the decision, instead of being the one who made it. "I'm going to have to be in a better mood this time next year than I am right now," Mara said. Advertisement That set the tone for the Giants season. It's all about whether Daboll and Schoen can survive again. It won't be easy. The owner is on edge. The fan base was already there. The Giants' solution at quarterback was signing two veterans who weren't wanted back by their previous teams and drafting a quarterback who will need some work. On top of it all, the Giants have the toughest schedule in the NFL, and by a pretty wide margin based on the projected betting win totals of their opponents, via Sharp Football Analysis. It seems like Daboll and Schoen are dead men walking into a season with a roster that would need some help to get out of last place in the NFC East. So why bother bringing them back at all? Can New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll (left) and general manager Joe Schoen (right) show enough improvement this season to keep their jobs? (Photo by Andy Lewis/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) (Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) Mara acknowledged the results weren't good enough, but gave Schoen credit for a good 2024 draft class and solid additions in free agency. Mara liked the way players still respond to Daboll, and he was the NFL's Coach of the Year just three seasons ago. It seemed in a way like Mara felt forced into being patient after the team went through four coaches, counting an interim, in six years after Tom Coughlin stepped down under pressure. The duo will need to show some progress this season, even if the record isn't that much better. Advertisement Jaxson Dart is the best path to showing that progress. Dart is an interesting first-round pick out of Ole Miss. He will take some time to learn an NFL offense, but he has enticing skills. Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston were signed before Dart was picked, and presumably Wilson will begin the season as the starter. If the Giants aren't much better than last season, the biggest question will be when to give Dart a shot. The reality is that decision will be made by a coach and general manager who are in self-preservation mode. Whatever is best for their survival will play a role in that decision. The Giants have a really good defensive line, a secondary that has gotten an influx of talent, a future star in receiver Malik Nabers and not much else. There's still a long way to go before the Giants are contenders again. Daboll and Schoen need some results this season to stick around for those better days. Offseason grade The Giants had a good draft last year and got top grades for their draft class this year. The Giants got the second-best consensus grade among draft analysts. Defensive end Abdul Carter didn't fill a need, because the Giants already had a strong defensive line, but he was an easy pick at No. 3 overall. The Giants traded up for quarterback Jaxson Dart in the first round, and he provides some hope for fixing a broken quarterback situation. The big free agent additions were cornerback Paulson Adebo and safety Jevon Holland, who should make the secondary better. Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston were signed to be stopgap solutions at quarterback, and neither is too exciting. Overall, it's clear to see the Giants' roster improving, and that will accelerate if Dart is a hit. Advertisement Grade: B+ Quarterback report The Steelers showed zero desire to bring Russell Wilson back. The Browns chose to sign 40-year-old Joe Flacco over matching the two-year, $8 million deal Jameis Winston got from the Giants. The Giants didn't have many great options at quarterback in free agency, and those two veterans will probably deliver predictable results. Wilson played pretty well for a few weeks for the Steelers last season but faded by the end, a reminder that his game isn't aging well as he approaches 37 years old. Winston is what he is, a sometimes exciting player who can't avoid turnovers. The odds of either starting through the season are long. Jaxson Dart should start at some point this season. He is a good athlete with a strong arm. Consistency can be an issue, but in college he was good at pushing the ball downfield and creating explosive plays. If the Giants get off to a slow start, it will be tough to resist the urge to speed up Dart's timetable and put him into the lineup. BetMGM odds breakdown From Yahoo's Ben Fawkes: 'The New York Giants signed QBs Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston this offseason, before drafting Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart in the first round in the 2025 NFL Draft. They're hoping to have the short- and long-term solutions at QB, but there's also a chance they have neither. With a win total of just 5.5 at BetMGM, the Giants' schedule is brutal – New York is favored in just one game and has the toughest schedule according to opponent win totals in the NFL. Will the defense be good enough to overcome the team's likely offensive shortcomings?" Yahoo's fantasy take From Yahoo's Scott Pianowski: "Malik Nabers is currently the WR7 off the board in Yahoo drafts. The market might be missing an opportunity here. New York's quarterback room is complicated, but at least things are upgraded from last year's medley of Daniel Jones, Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito. And the Brian Daboll scheme will force the ball to its best players — Nabers was second in the NFL in targets last year despite missing two games. Normally the goal with your early picks is to target the best players on the best teams, but Nabers is likely too big to fail. If you sneak him in the second half of your first round, you've done well." Stat to remember Malik Nabers, the sixth pick of last year's NFL Draft, was second in the NFL with 170 targets last season. Only Ja'Marr Chase, who won the receiving triple crown, had more with 175. Chase played two more games than Nabers, who played 15 games and had 10 or more targets in 10 of them. He had seven in his first game and never fewer than eight the rest of his rookie season. In other words, Nabers was the epicenter of the Giants' offense from his first day on the job. He was productive too, with 109 catches for 1,204 yards. The Giants did nothing to upgrade the receiving room in the offseason, meaning that there is little to keep a healthy Nabers from the rare level of 200 targets this season. As long as the Giants' quarterback play is reasonable, Nabers could lead the NFL in receptions and yards. Advertisement Burning question How will the Giants use all their pass rushers? Once Travis Hunter went with the second pick of the NFL Draft, the Giants didn't have much choice but to take Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter at No. 3. He was clearly the best player available, and would have been a reasonable first overall pick. But it did create some questions. The Giants already had two top edge rushers in Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux. The Giants could use all three at once, pushing one of them inside. But the Giants don't want to limit any of those three talented players to less than 70% of the team's defensive snaps. Something has to give, though it is a good problem to have. Those three rushers along with elite defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence II make up one of the best defensive lines in football, regardless of how the playing time is divvied up. Best-case scenario When the Giants made the playoffs in Brian Daboll's first season as coach, they caught a lot of breaks. The Giants won plenty of close games and then beat a similarly lucky Vikings team in the playoffs. Theoretically that could happen again, but it's unlikely. It's a roster that still has questions at secondary, offensive line, running back, receiver outside of Malik Nabers and linebacker outside of Bobby Okereke. And, of course, that lingering question at quarterback. Jaxson Dart could prove himself to be the answer at QB and if that's the only positive thing to happen for the Giants this season it would be a reason to celebrate. It's hard to envision the Giants being a playoff team. Maybe that will cost Daboll and Joe Schoen their jobs. But if Dart shows some promise, that might be enough for New York to feel good about its direction going forward and stick with the plan. To many Giants fans, that's not the best-case scenario. Advertisement Nightmare scenario The Giants' schedule is brutal. NFL analyst Warren Sharp had it as the toughest in the league based on sportsbooks' win totals, and the eye test confirms it. The Giants are favored in only one game all season (Week 5 at New Orleans). It's possible the Giants are buried by November, and there would be a lot of pressure on ownership to make a midseason change at coach and GM. It's possible Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen never get to experience Jaxson Dart starting a regular season game, if everything goes wrong. And it could. Outside of the obvious quarterback issues, the offensive line could be a problem again, the lack of playmakers other than Malik Nabers is glaring and a defense that was 28th in DVOA last season might not be much better. Trying to figure all of that out against the toughest schedule in the NFL will be a chore. The Giants went 3-14 last season, and they could easily be that bad again. Though if that happens, at least Giants fans would get their wish and see the team reset at coach and GM. The crystal ball says On one hand the Giants are getting better. They had a good offseason last year and this year's draft and free agency seemed to be strong as well. But there are still many holes, which speaks to how much work the roster needed even as the Giants made the playoffs in 2022. The Giants should want Jaxson Dart to sit as long as possible, though it will be tough to resist putting him in as the losses pile up. The team has a Week 14 bye, and giving Dart the final four games to show what he can do seems right. What happens in those final four games will be crucial in determining the future of the franchise, including the job status of the coach and general manager. The Giants are in for another losing season, and that seems more likely than not to be bad news for Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen. Dart might be able to save them, and reinvigorate the fan base, by showing some promise late in the season.
