The International Olympic Committee (IOC) makes the determination of which sports are to be included in the Olympics. The International Skating Union (ISU) petitioned to have figure skating included as a winter sport and it was, in time for the first Winter Olympic Games in 1924. For decades figure skating was the most popular Winter Olympic sport by far, but since 2010, TV audiences and streaming viewership of freestyle skiing and Snowboarding have begun to outpace figure skating.
