LOS ANGELES — Confined to a hotel ballroom for most of Wednesday, the Los Angeles 2024 organizers had one of their last chances, and certainly their best, to make the case for their bid.

With the IOC evaluation commission starting its three-day visit, LA 2024 sought to highlight its strengths and address any concerns about its effort to bring the Games to the City of Angels for a third time.

“We have the strongest foundations of any bid in history, so the bid we submitted is the Games we will deliver,” LA 2024 chairman Casey Wasserman said.
