The Games are finally here... Of course we’re talking about the Tokyo Olympics. Delayed last year, it’s been a long and tough road to get to the starting line, so it's only fitting that we handball this Shortcut to the team at Sport Today, Sam Ferris and Martin Gabor. They’ll give you the background on pulling off a delayed Olympics, how the Japanese public feel about it, what it will look like for the athletes and as a viewer, Australia's medal hopes, and some athletes to watch.
