BEIJING, Jan. 4 (Xinhua) — The International Sports Press Association (AIPS) has named the Beijing Winter Olympics press facilities as the best in the 2022 multi-sport events.
AIPS indicated that, although Beijing 2022 was held in a bubble to avoid COVID-19 infection, it offered a top-notch main press center, which was the largest ever for a winter sport, with great efficiency.

"Everything was launched by the Beijing Winter Olympic Games," read a statement from AIPS. "Then gradually came all the other events and we must say that all of them guaranteed good quality press services."
In its annual year-end poll, AIPS divides sports events into multi- and single-sport events, with the top three multi-sport events receiving the highest number of votes being the Beijing Winter Olympics, the Munich European Championships and the Birmingham Commonwealth Games.
