As always, the health and well-being of our athletes, coaches, and support staff is our primary concern. We therefore completely support the COC in their request to the International Olympic Committee for a postponement of the 2020 Olympic Games.
The impact of this decision is obviously enormous and will take time for all of us to properly evaluate. We will continue to have discussions with the COC and the FIG to discuss the ramifications and impacts of this decision and will continue to share the outcomes of those discussions with our community.
Thank you for your patience during these trying times, and please stay safe.
