/Jessica Bridge quotes IGF head Peter Dawson on the status of the Olympic course design derby. Hopefully Architect Dawson is not one of them!
"Fortunately it's a part of the world where the grass grows very quickly, but we need to determine the architect and get going on it this year, otherwise it's going to be a rush," added Dawson.
"It is the responsibility of the Rio organising committee to provide the venue, but it is the responsibility of the federation to ensure that the venue meets the Games' standards and requirements.
"We have strong interest from about 15 companies."
