Tokyo Olympics test event, gymnastics’ All-Around World Cup, cancelled ahead of Games – Wide World of Sports
Travel restrictions cited as prime reason
A gymnastics test event in Tokyo for the Olympics that would have included athletes from outside Japan was cancelled on Tuesday.
The Japan Gymnastics Association and international governing body FIG said the All-Around World Cup scheduled for May 4 was off.
It was to be the last of an artistic gymnastics series doubling as Olympic qualifiers, but the other two World Cups in Germany and Britain were also previously cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic.
