According to Chess24's report on game 4 of the Svidler-Karjakin match at the World Cup, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov said that the 2016 World Championship match will definitely be in the United States, either in New York, Chicago or Los Angeles, while the odds on next year's Candidates' tournament being here in the U.S. are about 50%.
Sounds good to me, especially if Hikaru Nakamura or Fabiano Caruana get a world championship match in New York, where they both used to live.
