Tokyo Olympics come to a close
VOA says the Tokyo Olympics have officially come to an end.
During closing ceremonies on Sunday night, IOC President Thomas Bach declared the Games closed. The next Summer Games will be held in Paris in 2024.
Just like competitions during this year’s Games, fans were not present for the closing ceremonies due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Olympic flame was extinguished as fireworks shot up into the sky.
At half-time, the U.S. was leading by 50-39 and the Americans continued to lead from then on, with Brittney Griner scoring a game high of 30 points.
