Sebastian Coe’s bid to become president of the International Olympic Committee has ended in defeat, with Kirsty Coventry of Zimbabwe winning the vote.
Coe, 68, had said occupying the Olympic Movement’s highest office was a role he had been "training for the best part of his life", but a majority of IOC members instead gave their backing to Coventry in the first round of voting.
The 41-year-old becomes the first woman and first African in the post.
