SUMMER OLYMPICS

The Winter Games will have few onlookers at venues, with even stricter protocols than last year's Summer Olympics in Tokyo.

Some of the world’s largest broadcasters including American network NBC are being asked by human rights groups to cancel plans to cover next year's Winter Olympics in Beijing. The request comes in an open letter from rights groups representing minorities in China, including Uyghurs, Tibetans, Hong Kong residents and others. The letter, obtained by the Associated Press, was sent Tuesday to NBC Universal chief executive officer Jeff Shell and other international broadcast executives.

When China hosted its first Olympics in 2008, U.S. President George W. Bush was among more than 80 heads of state in attendance in Beijing. Fourteen years later, the 2022 Winter Games are set to open in the same city but a different world, one wracked by a pandemic and one where a more-powerful China finds itself increasingly at odds with the U.S. and other democracies.

The Summer Olympics might be over, but these little kids were inspired by the athletes they saw on TV, and they're now ready to compete in future games.

In what was otherwise a rough two weeks in Tokyo for NBC Universal, viewers perked up a bit in the second week of the games when the U.S. team's performance did the same.

Here’s a breakdown of what certain countries pay athletes when they win a medal in the Summer Olympics, according to Forbes.

With the flame extinguished in Tokyo this past weekend, the torch for the Summer Olympics -- seeing as the Winter Games in Beijing are just six months away -- has been passed to Paris, the host of the 2024 Summer Games.

Baseball's traditional powers — Japan, the United States and the Dominican Republic — took the medals as the sport made a dramatic return to the Olympic program.

Data shows, almost without exception, that Olympic athletes from the host country win more medals in the summer games than they did when they were competing away from home.

Japan secured Olympic baseball gold 11 days after winning the gold medal in softball on the same field in Yokohama.

Karate is one of the new sports added to the Olympics for the first time at the Tokyo Games. The sport traces its roots to Japan where it was developed 700 years ago.

Olympians themselves are absolutely impressive. Then, throw in the athletes who have medaled more than once. That’s certainly something to write home about.

The United States hasn’t hosted any Olympic Games since 2002, when Salt Lake City welcomed the world to the Winter Olympics, but man, there have certainly been some cities that have tried.

She had the long and colorful nails. She wore the flashy outfits, including a neon, one-legged spandex bodysuit. Above all, she had the iconic nickname “Flo-Jo,” which just sounded fast.

A third country has joined the medal table for the very first time at the 2020 Tokyo Games.

First came news that one athlete had tested positive; three more quickly followed. Now the whole team is being moved to a separate hotel.

For the past year, polls in Japan showed overwhelming opposition to the Tokyo Olympics as the pandemic raged around the world. Now, with the Games underway, some residents are changing their opinions.

It will nearly impossible for Pita Taufatofua to outlast his original claim to fame as “the shirtless flag bearer,” which made him a legend on social media.

As you cheer on sports you didn't think you cared about during the 2020 Summer Olympics, we're here to answer all those random questions that keep popping up in your brain.

Astronauts on the International Space Station were pictured watching and celebrating the Summer Olympics in Tokyo.

The Tokyo Olympics are still just getting started, but there already have been a good collection of stories that have pulled at the heartstrings of millions around the world.

A second judo athlete has dropped out of the Olympics before facing Israel’s Tohar Butbul in the 73-kilogram division. Olympic officials say Sudan’s Mohamed Abdalrasool didn’t show up to face Butbul in their round of 32 bout Monday despite weighing in for the bout earlier. The International Judo Foundation didn’t immediately announce a reason why Abdalrasool didn’t compete, and the governing body didn’t respond to requests for comment.

The International Surfing Association has confirmed a last-minute alternate: Carlos Munoz, who will surf for Costa Rica as the sport makes its Olympic debut. Munoz replaces Frederico Morais of Portugal, who announced Friday that he had tested positive for COVID-19 and would not travel to Japan while he quarantines at home. Munoz’s confirmation comes at the very last minute possible, as the association had set the 3 p.m. Saturday Tokyo time as the deadline for alternates to be approved.

The pandemic is only one of the Games’ problems. Strong suspicions of doping by athletes continue to demand solutions for fair competition.

A Tokyo Games mired in controversy could cast the Olympic movement into a void that could have consequences that reach all the way to Los Angeles.

From doping to demonstrations to dirty officials, the Olympics have never lacked their share of off-the-field scandals and controversies that keep the Games in the headlines long after the torch goes out. The five-year gap since the last Summer Olympics has been no different. SEX ABUSE — Larry Nassar's sexual abuse of hundreds of gymnasts in the U.S. opened a window into an abusive culture that permeates throughout the sport and in all corners of the globe.

Japan's state of emergency due to rising Covid-19 cases will last from July 12 through Aug. 22.

Japan is set to place Tokyo under a state of emergency that would last through the Olympics, fearing an ongoing COVID-19 surge will multiply during the Games. At a meeting with experts Thursday morning, government officials proposed a plan to issue a state of emergency in Tokyo from next Monday to Aug. 22. The Games already will take place without foreign spectators, but the planned six-week state of emergency likely ends chances of a local audience.

Japan is finally showing urgency. It’s too late to counter concerns around next month’s Games.

When you think of the Summer Olympics, do you think of swimming? Gymnastics? Basketball? Track and field?

It's sinking in that Japan's scramble to catch up on a frustratingly slow vaccination drive less than two months before the Summer Olympics start may be too little, too late.

It may be too little, too late. The Olympics risk becoming an incubator for “a Tokyo variant,” as 15,000 foreign athletes and tens of thousands officials, sponsors and journalists from about 200 countries descend on — and potentially mix with — a largely unvaccinated Japanese population, said Dr. Naoto Ueyama, a physician, head of the Japan Doctors Union. With infections in Tokyo and other heavily populated areas currently at high levels and hospitals already under strain treating serious cases despite a state of emergency, experts have warned there is little slack in the system.

With two months until the opening ceremony, anti-Olympic sentiment is mounting in Japan.

When the coronavirus pandemic forced Tokyo last year to delay the Summer Olympics and Paralympics to July 2021, organizers kept the Tokyo 2020 name, saying they wanted the event to be seen as a “light at the end of the tunnel.” Covid-19 is still spreading but the games appear to be going ahead, in what would be the biggest world event of the pandemic era. But they are almost certain to look like no other Olympics, with a bar on spectators from abroad and uncertainty as to whether even fans in Ja

The opening ceremony of the Summer Olympics is less than two months away, but plenty of questions remain regarding COVID-19 and the Tokyo Games.

AdKotani is the sports director for the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee.

Months after other major economies, Japan began giving the first coronavirus vaccines to front-line health workers Wednesday. The late rollout will make it impossible to reach so-called "herd immunity" against the virus before the Olympics begin in July, experts say. About 80% of those polled in recent media surveys support cancellation or further postponement of the Olympics because of the virus worries. "I think it is more important for the Japanese government to show the Japanese people that we have done everything possible to prove the efficacy and safety of the vaccine to encourage the Japanese people to take the vaccine," Japanese vaccine minister Taro Kono said. The first batch of the Pfizer vaccine that arrived Friday is enough to cover the first group of medical workers.

Japan's first coronavirus shots were given to health workers Wednesday, beginning a vaccination campaign considered crucial to holding the already delayed Tokyo Olympics. Medical workers say vaccinations will help protect them and their families, and business leaders hope the drive will allow economic activity to return to normal. The first batch of Pfizer vaccines that arrived Friday is enough to cover the first group of medical workers. AdAfter the front-line medical workers will come inoculations of 3.7 million more health workers starting in March, followed by about 36 million people aged 65 and older beginning in April.

Just as Japanese and international Olympics officials are trying their hardest to demonstrate meticulous care in planning for the already-delayed Summer Olympics, the chief of the Tokyo Games has been forced to apologize for sexist remarks. Tokyo Olympic And Paralympic Games Organizing Committee (TOGOC) President Yoshiro Mori speaks to media from the TOGOC headquarters, January 28, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan. Takashi Aoyama/GettyThe International Olympic Committee issued a statement calling gender equality "a fundamental principle" for the organization and citing gains in recent years to reduce significant gaps in the number of women versus men on its leadership bodies. Also, all athletes and officials need to be tested 72 hours before leaving their home countries, and then they need to be tested every four days while in Japan. In the days ahead the Tokyo Olympics Committee is expected to release more detailed playbooks for other groups, including athletes, media and spectators.

Bach said during this week's trip to Tokyo that he is encouraging all Olympic participants and fans to be vaccinated - if one becomes available - if they are going to attend next year's Tokyo Olympics. The Tokyo Olympics were postponed eight months ago, and now are to open in eight months: July 23, 2021. Hanging in the balance are 11,000 Olympic athletes and 4,400 Paralympians. Tokyo said the Olympics would cost $7.3 billion when it was awarded the games in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2013. Bach was asked this week in Tokyo about reported payments of $8 million made by the Tokyo bid committee to Haruyuki Takahashi.

TOKYO – The IOC and Tokyo Olympic organizers have been shouting the message for months now, that despite the continuing pandemic, the Games will open on July 23, 2021. Bach was also asked last week whether he was going to Tokyo to talk about contingencies for canceling the Olympics. Bach is travelling on a private charter and will meet new Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga on Monday morning. An hour later he’s with Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike, and then holds a media conference with Tokyo organizing committee President Yoshiro Mori, another former prime minister. The IOC president has has called Tokyo the best prepared Olympics in history, a point he's likely to repeat.

TOKYO – Fans living in Japan who bought tickets for the postponed Tokyo Olympics have been guaranteed refunds, the local organizing committee said Friday. The IOC and Tokyo organizers are running several task forces looking at ways to handle immigration and COVID-19. He’s also organized a popular Facebook page that’s a go-to for Tokyo ticket information. Tokyo organizers have budgeted $800 million in income from ticket sales in Japan and aboard, their third largest source of income. Organizers say 4.48 million Olympic tickets have been sold in Japan, with 970,000 tickets for the Paralympics.

Even before the coronavirus pandemic wiped the Summer Olympics off the 2020 sports calendar, the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee was an organization in peril. “Last year I talked about evolution and ‘Jurassic Park,’” chair Susanne Lyons said, in a nod to the changes the USOPC had embarked upon, pre-COVID. College sports teams supplied the U.S. with about 75% of its roster at the 2016 Summer Games. The Summer Olympics are nine months away, with a Winter Games set for February 2022, and the Los Angeles Games — the first Summer Games in America in a generation — scheduled for 2028.

TOKYO – Tokyo Olympic organizers estimate they have found cost-savings of about $280 million by simplifying and cutting some frills from next year’s postponed games. The savings represent about 2% of the official Tokyo Olympic budget of $12.6 billion. Gakuji Ito, the chief financial officer of the Tokyo Olympics, acknowledged the cost-savings figure was only an estimate. Most of the bills for the Tokyo Olympics and the postponement fall on Japanese taxpayers. About $5.6 billion in the Tokyo Olympic budget is private money, and about $1.3 billion of that comes from the IOC.

TOKYO – The IOC and local organizers are trying to “simplify” the postponed Tokyo Olympics, promising to save money in what one study says is already the most expensive Summer Olympics on record. Organizers and the IOC say they had already slashed several billion dollars in costs before the Olympics were postponed six months ago because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tokyo and the IOC have not offered an estimate of the savings, but estimates in Japan put them at 1-2% of official spending of $12.6 billion. The document handed out last month by organizers showed them considering “measures to increase” donations to make up for lost income. To keep sponsors on board, the IOC and local organizers have talked confidently in the last several months about the Olympics opening as planned on July 23, 2021.

NBC which has the U.S. media rights through the 2032 Summer Games had already done most of its features and taped promos before the International Olympic Committee postponed the Games in March. Other issues include how many people NBC will send to Tokyo. ABC aired 63 hours from the Sarajevo Winter Games and 180 from the Los Angeles Summer Games, which were both records at the time. NBC's coverage from Tokyo will be over 7,000 hours and the 2022 Beijing Winter Games an additional 2,500. While ABC used only one channel for its coverage, NBC will again air across many channels along with online streaming.

In the summer of 1992, the United States sent 11 future members of the NBA Hall of Fame to represent the nation at the Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. A month earlier, the reigning back-to-back NBA Most Valuable Player had led the Chicago Bulls to their second consecutive championship. As a member of the 1992 Olympic "Dream Team," Jordan was coached by Chuck Daly, who also manned the bench for the Detroit Pistons.

Women wearing face masks, amid concerns of the COVID-19 coronavirus, walk past a display showing a countdown to the start of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo on March 23, 2020. Athletes who were going to compete don't automatically qualify for the Games next year, she says. There's no uniform way this will be decided, Williams said, because different sports and different countries all have somewhat different time lines. One thing is for certain: For people who have set aside time to train full-time, this means an extra year of costs, Williams says. "Either they worked full-time the previous year to have their one full Olympic year or did some combination of other funding," she said.

A pedestrian wearing a face mask walks past a banner promoting the upcoming Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games outside the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building on February 26, 2020 in Tokyo, Japan. While some analysts say that it could be "a huge blow" to the Japan economy, others say the impact may be "modest." Japan has been under pressure to either cancel or delay the games, set to take place in Tokyo from Jul. Fitch Solutions said in a report that the postponement or cancellation of the Tokyo Olympics Games could deal "a huge blow to Japan's economy and prestige." "In a hypothetical scenario without the coronavirus pandemic, such a step would have a significant impact," Angrick said.

Along with AT&T Inc.s HBO Max, NBCs new service, Peacock, is poised to be a relatively late entrant in the burgeoning market for streaming-video services. Comcast executives have said they plan to spend $2 billion over the next two years on the streaming service and expect it to break even by its fifth year. Their subscribers will have access to twice as many hours of content as those using the free version. Ad OptionsAnyone can get the free version of Peacock, but customers will have to pay $4.99 for the premium version with advertising.
