Czech beach volleyball players Markéta Sluková-Nausch and Barbora Hermannova are coming to terms with being ruled out of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games as the European team grapples with a growing Covid-19 problem.
Sluková-Nausch's positive result was announced on Thursday, as she became the fifth member of the Czech Olympic team to have tested positive for Covid-19 in Tokyo. "We cried, then we swore, then we cried again," said Sluková-Nausch, whose positive test also rules out her playing partner Hermannová from the Games.More Related News
