The deal allows the Press Association access to the Games for its photographers and reporters.

Scott Dougal, Olympics editor at Press Association Sport, said: ‘The Press Association has been bringing Olympic news to the British media since the first London Games in 1908. We promise comprehensive coverage of the 2012 Olympic Games according to our guiding principles of fast, fair and accurate reporting.’
