Tokyo 2020: How We Saw It

Minus fans and fanfare, Olympians could focus not only on themselves but also their fellow athletes.

Mental health awareness in sports did not begin at these Olympics, but they provided the platform for it to explode into public consciousness like never before.

Japan collected 58 medals, its most at a Summer Olympics, and more than half of the honors involved female athletes.

As brilliant as the competition was, without spectators to share in the spectacle, the Tokyo Olympics lost their soul.
