(Reuters) - USA Gymnastics said on Friday the federation was surveying its athletes on the possibility of postponing the Tokyo Olympics.

"We know and respect that they may have different views on how best to advocate for their interests, which is why, this afternoon, we asked our Olympic hopefuls to share their thoughts about the possibility of a postponement with us through an anonymous survey," Li Li Leung, president and chief executive officer of USA Gymnastics, said in a statement to Reuters.
