(Reuters) - Lima will host the Pan American Games in 2027, the organising body Panam Sports said on Tuesday following a vote that ruled out Paraguayan capital Asuncion's bid.
The decision comes after both cities announced their bids last month in the wake of Colombia's Barranquilla being stripped of hosting rights for failing to meet contractual obligations.
