What is the latest news?
The men s surfing contest at the Olympics was delayed by 90 minutes on Monday due to low tide at Tsurigasaki beach, about 90 miles east of Tokyo.
The International Surfing Association, the sport s Olympic governing body, said low tide combined with the shifting weather has destabilized the quality of the surf conditions for the sport s big debut.
The call came at the end of the eight 1-on-1 heats for the women s competition, and now the men s game is pushed back to start at 1:18 p.m. local time.
Such delays are not unusual in competitive surfing, as it is perhaps the only organized sport that is both dependent on an uncontrollable variable the weather and defined by a literal uneven playing field the ocean.
