For the IOC to delay their decision for four weeks is unfair to athletes around the world. We need answers now
Through all the injuries and setbacks I have faced in recent years one thing has kept me going: the thought of wearing the British vest again at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Right now I am in the best shape I’ve been in for a long time – but, given I turn 34 next month, it’s possible that if the Games are pushed back a year it could end my dream. But there is no doubt in my mind that a postponement has to happen.
For the IOC to continue to dither and delay, when health professionals are warning just how dangerous coronavirus is and when most athletes are unable to train properly, is obscene.
