TOKYO: Tokyo Olympic organisers on Wednesday unveiled medals designed to reflect the"energy" of athletes as the city marked a year to go until the opening ceremony of the 2020 Summer Games.
The medals were unveiled at a ceremony marking the year-to-go countdown until the Tokyo 2020 Games, with International Olympic Committee chief Thomas Bach praising the city's readiness. "I never dreamed that the design I submitted only as a memorial to this lifetime event would be actually selected," designer Junichi Kawanishi said.
