ZURICH, Switzerland (AP) - FIFA president Sepp Blatter said the system of rotating the World Cup among continents could end after the 2014 tournament, a move that could hurt the United States' bid for 2018.
"The FIFA executive committee has decided that the process of the rotation will go to 2014," Blatter said at a news conference Friday.
Whether it continues will be decided when the executive committee meets in Durban, South Africa, ahead of the 2010 qualifying draw on Nov. 23. That also is when the executive committee will select the site of the 2014 tournament, which is designated for South America and is likely to be in Brazil.
