Barcelona, which investigated a bid, withdrew citing a lack of support from the local population and financial difficulties. On 5 September 2011, Doha launched its marketing bid for the 2017 World Championships. The slogan of the bid was `` The RIGHT PARTNER for a stronger World Championships. '' The bid was led by Abdullah Al Zaini and Aphrodite Moschoudi. Moschoudi successfully led Qatar 's bid for the 2015 Handball World Championships. Doha also brought in Brian Roe, a member of the IAAF Technical Committee. The bid was for the championships to be held in the renovated, climate - controlled Khalifa Stadium. The Corniche promenade was to hold the road races, with the committee proposing to hold the marathon at night after the opening ceremony. On 6 September 2011, London unveiled its bid for the 2017 championships with the slogan `` Ready to break records. '' This was London 's fourth bid in less than 15 years to host the event. The London bid team said that if their bid was successful they would introduce the `` Women in World Athletics '' programme. The IAAF Evaluation Commission visited London on 2 − 4 October and Doha on 4 − 6 October. On 11 November 2011, the winner was officially announced as London.

Nevertheless, 19 Russian athletes have been allowed to participate in international competition included as `` authorised neutral athletes '' at London 2017 following a long process to show that they were not directly implicated in Russia 's state doping program. These athletes include Mariya Lasitskene ( high jump ), Sergey Shubenkov ( 110 metres hurdles ), Ilya Shkurenev ( decathlon ), Aleksandr Menkov ( long jump ) and Anzhelika Sidorova ( pole vault ) plus names from 2016 such as Darya Klishina ( long jump ) Quarantine An outbreak of norovirus occurred at a local hotel affecting 30 athletes and officials. Notes Jump up ^ On 31 July 2017, IAAF announced that Russia was still banned indefinitely unless several criteria for reinstatement were met, including meaningful drugs testing being conducted and more acceptance of the McLaren report which exposed the country 's state - sponsored doping and led to the ban.
