TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan’s Seiko Hashimoto, a woman who has competed in seven Olympics, has been chosen as president of the Tokyo 2020 Organising committee, she said on Thursday, replacing a man who resigned over a furore about his sexist remarks. Hashimoto had been Japan’s Olympics minister until she resigned on Thursday to take up her new role.
