IOC to drop one sport from 2020 Games and modern pentathlon’s in hot seat


LONDON: Removing a sport from the Olympics is one of the IOC’s most sensitive tasks. After months of evaluation, a decision will come next week – and the century-old competition of modern pentathlon appears the most at risk.

The IOC executive board will meet in Lausanne, Switzerland, and announce on Tuesday which of the current 26 sports on the Olympic program will be dropped for the 2020 Games.
