IOC Rejected Sofia 2014 Winter Olympics Bid

Bulgaria's capital Sofia is now out of the race for hosting the Winter Olympic Games in 2014 after the International Olympic Committee shortlisted three of the candidates.
Russia's Black Sea resort of Sochi, Austria's Salzburg, South Korea's Pyeongchang, - all three cities pointed as favourites were selected by the IOC Executive Board as the Candidate Cities for the XXII Olympic Winter Games in 2014.
We are pleased with the decision that was reached through a unanimous consensus. We congratulate the three Candidate Cities and thank the other four Applicant Cities for their hard work and enthusiasm. We look forward to a fair and exciting competition, IOC President Jacques Rogge said.
A Bulgarian delegation was in Lausanne to back Sofia's bid. The delegation included Sofia mayor Boyko Borissov, Stefka Kostadinova, chair of the Bulgarian Olympic Committee, State Sports Agency chair Vessela Lecheva, Mario Al-Jebouri, head of the State Tourism Agency.
