The International Olympic Committee has three official candidates to host the 2026 Winter Games and a new timetable to pick the winner.


The 2026 Olympics contest is between Calgary, Canada; Stockholm, Sweden; and the combined Italian bid of Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo after IOC members formally backed the bids recommended last week by their executive board.


A fourth contender, Erzurum in Turkey, was dropped by the board last week amid concern about high spending on essential projects.
