The International Olympic Committee picked the Australian city of Sydney as the site of the 2000 Olympic Games.
Beijing, China had mounted a heavy campaign, but was not able to convince a majority of the Olympic Committee to give it the games.
Other cities that lost out in the bidding included Berlin, Germany; Istanbul, Turkey; and Manchester, England.
