Pole vault world champion Sam Kendricks ruled out due to Covid-19
The Times says the Olympic Games descended into chaos this morning after a positive Covid test for American world champion pole vaulter Sam Kendricks led to the Australians putting their entire 63-strong track and field team in isolation.
Kendricks has been training with Australian pole vaulter Kurtis Marschall out here in Tokyo, and a consequence of that was for the Australian Olympic Committee to order their athletes to isolate themselves in their rooms as a precautionary measure just 24 hours before the athletics programme begins.
