The thing that they mentioned to me about the award was theyre just going out there to try to win games, now I feel Im taking that into consideration. As long as Im going out there and trying to win games, everything will fall into place.

It is a court case and there are no guarantees, the standard requires an expedited hearing, but also a fair hearing.

We allow due process. They have to have their day in court. If that causes a delay, if it means it misses Tokyo, it does not lose its power as it covers Paris 2024. That's the stick we are using so they don't drag it out.

I would hope and expect it will be done by March or April but I cannot guarantee that. There is a risk the Russians will drag it out.

In Russia they have reacted saying it is outrageous and a harsh ban. I do think it is a ban that strikes a blow to the pride of the nation, no Russian flag, no Russian colors, no Russian president to accept the plaudits. Russia will not be there (in Tokyo or the 2022 soccer World Cup), President Putin will not be there. If Russia win the World Cup he will not be there to celebrate.
