Pilot
certificate.

If your medical has been denied, you can't fly airplanes period.

If you have ever had a private and it hasn't been revoked, you can fly as
a sport pilot.

There is no way to downgrade a private certificate to a sport pilot
certificate.

Litterally true as specifically stated, but a practical solution for an
individual in a particular individual could still include gliders or
ultralight vehicles.

BTW, that nomenclature drives my nuts!
