The International Olympic Committee Evaluation Commission continued its tour of venues for Tokyo's bid for the 2020 Summer Olympics on Wednesday with a visit to Tokyo Big Sight.
The sprawling complex next to Tokyo Bay would play host to wrestling, fencing and taekwondo if the capital city wins the right to host the games, as well as be home to the Main Press Center and International Broadcast Center.
The commission was greeted by three-time wrestling gold medalists Saori Yoshida and Kaori Icho at the venue. The pair is hoping the sport will remain in the Olympics after it was provisionally dropped by the IOC last month. Wrestling has a chance to get back in the Olympic program when the IOC meets again in May in Lausanne, Switzerland.
