By Karolos Grohmann KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 1 (Reuters) – Beijing’s winning 2022 winter Olympics bid was welcomed by organisers of the 2018 Pyeongchang Games in South Korea, who now look to benefit from Asia’s Olympics treble. The Chinese capital was awarded the Games on Friday, joining Pyeongchang and Tokyo 2020 as Olympic hosts, the first time Asia has three consecutive Games. “We are expecting to work together with Beijing,” Pyeongchang Games chief Cho Yang-ho told a small group of reporters on Saturday.
