Saudi Arabia has been selected to host the Asian Winter Games in 2029 at a £440billion futuristic city that doesn't exist yet.
The country was 'unanimously approved' by the Olympic Council of Asia to stage the event. In recent years the country has increased their presence in sport by hosting more events across various sports such as boxing, WWE and F1 and have also funded football teams and golf leagues.
This event, not set to take place for another seven years, is reported to be held in Trojena, Neom city, a planned futuristic megacity featuring a mountain resort that is due to be completed in 2026.
