SPONSORSHIP & PROMOTION Japan’s All Nippon Airways announced plans to continue the current title sponsorship of the LPGA’s first major of the season, the ANA Inspiration, for another three years, bringing the brand’s run through at least 2022. "This title sponsorship extension is excellent news for one of the game's greatest championships, which has been elevated since ANA joined the LPGA family in 2015," said LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan. "ANA is a world-class company and world-class partner to the LPGA. Because of ANA's vision and commitment, a major LPGA tradition will continue to grow and reach new heights for MANY years to come!” The same night that saw the Vegas Golden Knights snag the NHL's Pacific Division title, the expansion team also retired the No. 58 jersey, paying tribute to the 58 people who were killed in the Oct. 1 concert shooting on the Las Vegas Strip. "It just really shows the community how dedicated we are and how involved the team is in the community," said team own Bill Foley. "The 58 stars are going to be there forever. You can see there were people crying in the stands, a few tears in my eyes as that banner got raised.” DIGITAL & STREAMING Saturday saw Google take on the Final Four in real-time, as the company leveraged data analytics techniques and machine learning during the semifinal games to project what would happen next in the games before utilizing its predictions about the game’s second half as a halftime TV ad. “This is likely the first time a company has used its own real-time predictive analytics to create ads during a live televised sporting event,” the company noted in a blog post. ESPORTS G2 Esports made moves to establish its long-term future, announcing a move to Berlin as its central hub in addition to a partnership with Twitch. The team notes that “We are convinced that this is the right time for us to increase our focus in the Western World as a whole, especially considering the great efforts Riot Games are doing in elevating the LCS to become the ultimate league,” and that it would be ceasing operation with all its Spanish teams. The Twitch deal will see G2 Esports make it the only live-streaming platform that will cover all G2 Esports teams and players with unique G2 Esports content to be live premiered via Twitch Premieres. Just ahead of the NBA 2K League Draft on Wednesday, Philadelphia 76ers Gaming Club named Michael Lai as General Manager and Ian Hillman as Assistant General Manager. Lai was a Data Scientist for the Philadelphia 76ers Analytics and Strategy Department while Hillman had been Director of Strategy within Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment. Overwatch League’s London Spitfire named Susie “lilsusie” Kim as the team’s General Manager. She joins the team after an esports career that has seen her work as on-stage talent across Starcraft and League of Legends before moving to help Twitch establish presence in the South Korean market. The High School Esports League announced today that RESPAWN Products, a gaming furniture maker, signed on as the official gaming furniture provider for affiliated high schools participating in the HSEL’s programs and tournaments across the United States.
