Tokyo 2020 organising committee president Yoshiro Mori explains the reasoning behind the decision to stage the Games from 23 July-8 August 2021 after this year's postponement of the event which was due to have taken place from 24 July- 9 August.

"A certain amount of time is required for the selection and qualification of athletes and for their training and preparation, and the consensus was that staging the rescheduled Games during the summer vacation in Japan would be preferable," Mori says.

"In terms of transport, arranging volunteers and the provision of tickets for those in Japan and overseas, as well as allowing for the Covid-19 situation, we think that it would be better to reschedule the Games to one year later than planned, in the summer of 2021."

Ireland's game against the Wallabies in Australia this July is "highly unlikely" to go ahead, while England's home match against the same opponents in November is also under threat.

Rugby Australia chief executive Raelene Castle said the side's home games against Ireland and Fiji in July were "highly unlikely" to happen.

Castle added that November's fixtures, including those against England and Ireland may also be sacrificed to complete league competition Super Rugby and international competition, the Rugby Championship.

"Delivering Super Rugby and the Rugby Championship might be something that we need to consider doing," she said.

"(For) 2021, there's a high probability that the calendar won't look exactly like it looks at the moment.

The head of Italy's Olympic Committee, Giovanni Malago, believes the Tokyo Games will start on 23 July, 2021.

The Olympics were postponed for a year due to the coronavirus pandemic and were originally set to start on 24 July, 2020.

"I have an idea, and maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think so, because I've talked to so many friends, " said Malago, who is a member of the International Olympic Committee.

"I think that within a short time the IOC will come out with the date of July 23, 2021, maintaining in fact, the same window foreseen this year."

Malago said the late July start would avoid a clash with the men's European football championship, which has also been postponed for one year and will now run from 11 June to 11 July, 2021.

The Tokyo Olympic Games' opening ceremony should achknowledge the coronavirus pandemic says Italian executive producer Marco Balich.

Balich, who has experience in producing Olympic ceremonies, said the Japanese had almost completed preparations for this year before announcing the event was postponed until 2021.

"I think for sure the Olympic ceremony - which is a window of all humanity - will have to reflect somehow or reference somehow what has happened," Balich told Reuters.

"We already had prototypes and started rehearsals. We were in very good shape.

"I think given this difficult decision, what our ceremonies team can now do is refresh and have a unique opportunity to rethink and use them to make them the biggest celebration with Olympic values."

"If we do this, the sun will shine again soon," he said in a video on Twitter.

"We are living in crazy times and I want to thank all the people who are involved in the NHS - they are doing a fantastic job and this is more important than our jobs in football.

"These people need all our support during this time. It is important to stay strong, to stick together, to stay united and especially to stay indoors and to stay safe.

"It is not too demanding for a few weeks to calm everything down and to care for each other. And if we do this the sun will shine again soon."

Open champion Shane Lowry says golf "differs" to other sports affected by coronavirus and players may struggle to get visas when the game returns.

"The only issue I see with golf is that we all live in different countries," he told Sky Sports.

"I think that's the big issue. When you look at the Premier League they all live in England. So when England is ready to open up again you can start back the Premier League.

"It will be interesting to see what restrictions are in place when we get playing. I'd just be fearful that players might not get visas if they're from certain countries. We'll just have to wait and see."

The first two golf majors of the season, the Masters and US PGA Championship, have been postponed and not yet rescheduled.

Wimbledon organisers will announce the cancellation of the event this week because of the coronavirus pandemic, German Tennis Federation (DTB) vice-president Dirk Hordorff said.

All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) officials said last week the event, due to start on 29 June would not be played behind closed doors and postponement was not without significant risk and difficulty.

"Wimbledon has stated that they will have a board meeting next Wednesday and will make the final decision there," Hordorff told Sky Sports Germany.

"I am also involved in the bodies of the ATP and WTA. The necessary decisions have already been made there and Wimbledon will decide to cancel next Wednesday. There is no doubt about it. This is necessary in the current situation.

"It is completely unrealistic to imagine that with the travel restrictions that we currently have an international tennis tournament where hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world would travel. That is unthinkable."
