As preparations get underway to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 1964 Olympic Games here, there has been a further delay to preparations for Tokyo 2020 with the news demolition of Japan's National Stadium will need to wait until another round of bidding for the project has taken place.

Keith Conning: I visited the stadium in 1967. I was amazed to find that it had been turned into a golf driving range. They had built a platform on the end of the second deck from which golfers could hit their balls onto the field. What a waste of a beautiful track facility!
