Commonwealth Games seek new 2022 host after Durban debacle

London

COMMONWEALTH Games chiefs said on Monday they were looking for a new venue for the 2022 edition after announcing scheduled host Durban had failed to meet "key obligations".

Last month, South Africa Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula indicated the government might withdraw its financial support because of the cost of staging the multi-sport event, saying "we cannot live beyond our means".
