The Competition Schedule for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics

In line with Tokyo 2020’s aim to be ”gender-balanced, more youth-focused and more urban,” the committee has introduced a number of new sports to be added to the core events. Karate, sport climbing, surfing and skateboarding are scheduled to make their Olympic debuts, although it is still undecided if they will be included in future competitions.

The 2020 Tokyo Olympics kicks off on July 24 and will culminate on August 9. Take a look at the complete schedule below.

In other sports news, former Lakers coach Luke Walton has apparently signed a multi-year deal with the Sacramento Kings.
