Tokyo Olympics: Kylie Masse wins second silver — Canada swim team’s fifth medal so far

From The Globe’s Olympic team

From harassment to mental health, female athletes at the Tokyo Olympics bring important issues to the forefront With no fans at the Tokyo Olympics, the stadiums don’t roar. They echo. For those few in attendance, the disinfection stations at every juncture are a physical manifestation of what organizers want these Games to be: sterile. But in stripping away the pageantry, the pandemic has laid bare some of what lies below the surface of sport. Without spectators to drown them out, the noise has come from the athletes themselves.

With limited ability to travel and new excuses to avoid co-operating, testing dropped by nearly half in 2020.

Come on A phone if degrasse on Kylie’s achievement? That’s just sloppy.

So why Andre?
