Magnus Kirt out of Tokyo 2021 Olympics due to new injury

Magnus Kirt hurt his shoulder back in fall 2019 in the Doha World Championships final where he won the silver medal. The shoulder injury has healed in schedule but unluckily Kirt suffered a leg injury in December which prevents him from participating in the Tokyo 2021 Olympics.
