The 2026 Commonwealth Games are in doubt after the Australian state of Victoria cancelled its plans to host due to budget blowouts.The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) struggled to find a host before Victoria volunteered in April 2022.But the premier said the projected cost had now tripled and become "well and truly too much" for the state to bear.CGF called the decision "hugely disappointing" and said it is "committed to finding a solution".The Commonwealth Games are a multi-sport tournament that take place every four years. They have only ever been cancelled during World War Two.To be eligible to participate in the games, competitors must be from one of the Commonwealth's 56 members. Most of the countries in the Commonwealth were once part of the British Empire.Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews on Tuesday said Victoria had been "happy to help out" when approached to host last year, but "not at any price".
