Let us know in the comments below! Golf is a sport beloved by millions of fans worldwide, but there are definitely millions of Netflix subscribers that have never once watched any footage from a PGA Tour. A documentary crew will be covering this year’s games, and will also be following Harry and Meghan throughout the event. The very first title coming to Netflix from the deal is an in-depth look into the Invictus Games, the Paralympics equivalent for injured former members of the armed forces, which Harry served as a founder in 2014. Runtime: TBA There are some extremely exciting new sports docs on the way covering sports such as tennis, golf, basketball, and more in 2023 and beyond.

With the Winter Olympics in Beijing, the World Cup in Qatar and the emergence of LIV Golf, 2022 was the year of reputation laundering through sports.

The next World Cup is here in the U.S. I'm just not sure that people watching the World Cup are saying yes, this is a place I would like to go on my next vacation. I think the expected revenue from this World Cup is $7 billion. The 2014 Winter Olympics were also in Russia. And so the amount of money it would need to bring in through the tourism side door would need to be a lot. The Winter Olympics earlier this year were in Beijing. JW: $220 billion to build the infrastructure for this World Cup. I don't think this was done for the 300,000 citizens. So when I look at that, I think: Why did you have to go for the World Cup? It makes sense that this was just a very expensive ad to become a golf destination for the hyper rich. You look at all the advertisements in the commercial breaks during the World Cup and you see multiple American colleges … [beginning of the year with the emergence of LIV Golf](https://www.si.com/olympics/2022/04/11/sportswashing-olympics-world-cup-daily-cover).

The deal will keep the UFC on ESPN into the 2030s. [UFC]ends in 2025, but the media company will work out a deal next year to keep the UFC from hitting the open market. The Pac-12 will carve out a handful of prime-time football games that it then will sell to Apple will be particularly attracted by the fact that it can buy all ESPN will be prepared to split the Pac-12’s media rights with Amazon, but will not offer the conference significantly more than it pays for the Big 12. [NBA]’s media rights will hit the open market, and the league will find a ton of interest from traditional media companies like Fox and NBC, and digital players like Apple and Amazon. The College Football Playoff expands from four to 12 teams in 2024-25, but ESPN holds the rights to the semis and championship through 2026. Look, also, for the NBA to court younger fans with a short-form digital or social media deal where, say, [YouTube]gets close-to-live highlight rights and the rights to sell the fourth quarter of games on a pay-per-view basis. But circuit executives will decide that a digital deal would put too much pressure on team sponsors that need the biggest audience available. Discovery Sports’ exclusive window runs to the end of the year, which means the NBA will have to wait until 2024 to get a deal done. That will create an opening for [Amazon], which already has a taste of the NFL’s popularity through “Thursday Night Football.” Amazon will complete a deal by the Super Bowl that does not include a stake in the league’s media assets. But the business still will see a lot of activity.

Major sporting events offer a prime opportunity for marketers to reach and engage viewers who may not identify as die-hard sports fans.

While “Yellowstone” topped last month’s list, it was Christmas movies that dominated, mostly of the classic variety. Searches for “World Cup” in the U.S. Interest in the World Cup is proof that sufficient buzz about a sporting event can engage audiences. The women’s team, however, is widely accepted to be the stronger team, so we may see this interest climb higher in 2023.” “Marketers can reach new audiences as the World Cup brings in users that wouldn’t watch sports otherwise,” says Julia Mandaville, SVOD vertical specialist. The recently concluded World Cup captured the attention of viewers around the world.

Dressed in shorts and a T-shirt, Fuentes dived to the bottom of the pool and dragged Alvarez to the surface. The final has gone down as a modern classic, coming at the conclusion of one of the most controversial tournaments ever staged. The new circuit has been accused of "sportswashing" Saudi Arabia's human rights record, and the US tours responded by suspending any players who competed in LIV events. [Valieva](/topic/valieva)doping shame -- Kamila Valieva was at the centre of a doping scandal at the Beijing Winter Olympics. Now 41, the American said she was "evolving" away from tennis. Ticket-holding fans, who were attacked with tear gas by police and fell victim to street crime, were intially accused of trying to enter the stadium illegally. [Shane Warne](/topic/shane-warne)dies -- The legendary Australian cricketer died at a luxury resort in Thailand in March from a suspected heart attack, aged 52. A French Senate inquiry contradicted assertions by UEFA and the French government that Liverpool fans without proper tickets were mainly responsible for the trouble. Serena refused to use the word "retirement" when she played what was likely her final tournament at the US Open. Swimming life-saver -- When 25-year-old American artistic swimmer Anita Alvarez passed out at the end of her solo routine at the World Championships in Budapest in June, her coach Andrea Fuentes plunged to the rescue. However, the famously unvaccinated Serbian had his visa cancelled and was held in a hotel housing refugees before being deported on "health and good order" grounds. Tensions were also evident at the US Open where Ukraine's
