DAEGU, South Korea (AP) - IOC President Jacques Rogge regrets that the United States did not bid for the 2020 Olympics and said Friday he hopes they will seek the right to organize the games in the future.

The two sides have had a dispute over revenue-sharing from the games for years and the U.S. Olympic Committee announced earlier this month it would not bid for the 2020 Games.
