WARSAW (Reuters) - Officials should consider postponing this year's Tokyo Olympic Games because of the coronavirus epidemic to protect the health of athletes, twice Olympic silver medal-winning discus thrower Piotr Malachowski said on Friday.
"If these games get postponed and will take place this year in November or December, this will definitely be much better for athletes. They'll be able to prepare," Poland's Malachowski told Reuters.
