TOKYO -- The International Olympic Committee has given itself a four-week deadline to decide when to hold this year's summer games in Tokyo. While the official start date remains July 24, the IOC board announced after a Sunday teleconference that it is open to changing the start date of the Games and will step up "scenario planning."
"These scenarios relate to modifying existing operational plans for the Games to go ahead on 24 July 2020, and also for changes to the start date of the Games," the IOC said in a statement.
