There are just eight months until the next winter Games in northern Italy, and a host for the 2036 Olympics must be chosen.

Among the outsiders, Eliasch has proposed rotating the Winter Games among a group of permanent hosts while Watanabe wants to stage the Olympics across five cities from five continents at the same time.

He also will serve as the host of NBC’s prime time Olympics coverage during the Milano Cortina Winter Games from Feb. 6-22.

Vonn is not looking too far ahead for what would be a fifth Winter Games and almost a quarter of a century since her first in 2002.

Last year the IOC said research showed only 10 countries will be able to host snow sports by 2040 because of the impact of climate change, and accepted "a need to adapt the Olympic Winter Games".
