YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The decision by World Athletics to award prize money at the Paris games has brought into focus the changing status of Olympians as amateur sportspeople – a tradition that has held for over a hundred years. Dr Richard Baka, co-director of the Olympic and Paralympic Research Centre at Victoria University tells The World’s Beverley O’Connor the move doesn’t come as a surprise given “so many changes in world sport”.
