LOS ANGELES. — Los Angeles was officially selected on Tuesday as the American candidate city that will bid to host the 2024 Summer Olympics after Boston pulled out of the race in July, the US Olympic Committee said. Los Angeles, which has hosted the Summer Games twice before, in 1932 and 1984, will be among the front-runners and joins a race that includes heavy favourite Paris, Rome, Budapest and Hamburg. “It is my distinct honour today to formerly name the city of Los Angeles as the U.S. bid city to host the 2024 Olympics,” USOC Chief Executive Officer Scott Blackmun told a news conference held just off the beach front in Santa Monica. — Reuters.
