Two-time Olympic figure skating champion Katarina Witt will have a leading role in Munich's bid for the 2018 Winter Games.
The 43-year-old Witt was presented Thursday as the head of a 23-member board of trustees for the bid. The board includes soccer legend Franz Beckenbauer, who brought the 2006 World Cup to Germany, and former Olympic skiing champion Rosi Mittermaier.
