TOKYO (Reuters) - Rowing at the Tokyo Olympics faces yet more disruption to its schedule due to the threat of inclement weather, with the World Rowing Executive Committee wiping clear Tuesday's programme and reshuffling the races for later in the week.

The men's and women's quad sculls medal rounds were moved to Wednesday from Tuesday, along with the semi-finals for the men's and women's lightweight double sculls, and men's and women's pairs.
