No masks, no worries — for now; Aussies preparing for Tokyo

SYDNEY (AP) — Former world champion Dani Stevens has been selected to the Australian team for her fourth Olympics less than a year after fearing she’d miss the Tokyo Games because of a career-threatening neck injury. Stevens won a record 14th national title in the discus throw at Australia’s track and field championships on Sunday to confirm her spot for Tokyo. There was no signs of masks or much in the way of COVID-19 restrictions for athletes or spectators during the championships at Sydney’s Olympic Park. It’ll be a different scene in Japan in just over three months when the delayed Olympics are held in a tight quarantine bubble.
