2022 World Athletics Championships
2022 World Athletics Championships. The 18th World Athletics Championships will be held in Eugene, Oregon, in the United States from July 15–24, 2022. This will be the 18th World Athletics Championships. They were supposed to happen from August 6–15, 2021. On April 8, 2020, World Athletics announced that the event would be put off for a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which also caused the 2020 Summer Olympics to be put off. World Athletics said on March 11, 2022, that a new team event trophy would be given out based on the points won in individual events. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, World Athletics banned all athletes and officials from Russia and Belarus from taking part in the championships.
Host
Beijing, China, where the announcement was made on April 16, 2015, was chosen as the host city. Eugene was chosen without the usual bidding process, but Eugene did bid for the 2019 World Championships, which Doha won.
How to get in
World Athletics said that athletes would qualify based on their position in the World Athletics Rankings if they were the current world champion or the winner of the Diamond League in 2021 or if they met the entry standard.
