28 Mar 2020 04:14PMPARIS: World Athletics president Sebastian Coe admitted on Friday that settling on a new date for the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 will not satisfy everybody.
"But there does have to be an element of flexibility and there is going to be flexibility for the next two years." However, there is no definite date yet for the rescheduled Games with IOC chief Thomas Bach saying Tuesday the Olympics"must be rescheduled to a date beyond 2020 but not later than summer 2021".
Just push a year back, that's all right? Since the month/dates were set for 2020, postpone a year later to the same month/dates.
