LONDON (Reuters) - Paris Olympic bid officials have ruled out any possibility of the French capital hosting the 2028 Games and say it is 2024 or nothing.

Three-times Olympic canoeing champion and bid co-chairman Tony Estanguet told Reuters on Tuesday, however, that Paris was open to the idea of the hosts of both Games being decided at the same session in Lima next September.
