6. Vote
The IOC voted to select the host city of the
2020 Summer Olympics on 7 September 2013 at
the 125th IOC Session at the Buenos Aires
Hilton in Buenos Aires, Argentina. An exhaustive
ballot system was used. No city won over 50% of
the votes in the first round, and Madrid and
Istanbul were tied for second place. A run-off
vote between these two cities was held to
determine which would be eliminated. In the
final vote, a head-to-head contest between
Tokyo and Istanbul, Tokyo was selected by 60
votes to 36.

8. Venues
It was confirmed in February 2012 that the National Olympic
Stadium in Tokyo would receive a $1 billion upgrade and full–
scale reconstruction for the 2019 Rugby World Cup as well as
the 2020 Olympics. 28 of the 33 competition venues in Tokyo
are within 8 kilometres (5 miles) of the Olympic Village. 11
new venues are to be constructed.

9. Mascot
2020 Tokyo today welcomed its
first special ambassador, the
beloved animated robotic cat
"Doraemon", joining to help achieve
the designation of the Japanese
capital as the next venue for the
2020 Olympic and Paralympics
Games.

14. Sports
Following the 2012 Games, the IOC assessed the 26 sports held in
London, with the remit of selecting 25 'core' sports to join new
entrants golf and rugby sevens at the 2020 Games. In effect, this
would involve the dropping of one sport from the 2016 Games
program. This would leave a single vacancy in the 2020 Games
program, which the IOC would seek to fill from a shortlist
containing seven unrepresented sports and the removed sport.
Events such as modern pentathlon, taekwondo and badminton were
among those considered vulnerable.
On 12 February 2013, IOC leaders voted to drop wrestling from
the Olympic program, a surprise decision that removed one of the
oldest Olympic sports from the 2020 Games
