Tokyo chief admits 2020 Olympic Games could face TWO-YEAR postponement due to coronavirus threat

The Olympics could be held in 2022 if coronavirus stops it going ahead this summer, according to a member of the Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee.

Haruyuki Takahashi has said a postponement of two years is more likely than a full cancellation because of the financial ramifications for the International Olympic Committee.

Officials from the IOC and Tokyo 2020 have repeatedly insisted the Games will go ahead as planned in July and August.
