SPONSORSHIP & PROMOTION Mastercard is partnering with two-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka, adding the current number one tennis player to its roster of global ambassadors. She becomes the first professional tennis player to wear the Mastercard logo – on her visor – in competition. “Naomi is the next generation of tennis greatness and we’re thrilled to support her quest to be the best tennis player in the world,” said Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing and communications officer, Mastercard. “As Asia’s first world number one player, she is an inspiration not just to her fans in Japan and the region, but to young girls and boys the world over. We see our relationship as an opportunity for us to enable her – as a consumer and our brand ambassador – to experience all the security and convenience of our payment products and services.” The NHL is bringing back its Stanley Cup Live Facebook show, which first aired last year on Facebook Live, for another season with presenting sponsor, New Amsterdam Vodka. This year, Stanley Cup Live presented by New Amsterdam Vodka, will also be simulcast via a livestream on Twitter. DIGITAL, DATA & STREAMING Speaking of the NHL, Ticketmaster and the National Hockey League secured a decade-long extension to their partnership as the official marketplace of the NHL, which will include bringing the new venue and ticketing technology to NHL events. Through its ongoing partnership with the League, Ticketmaster will continue to provide NHL fans with the best inventory selections via Ticketmaster.com/nhl and the NHL Ticket Exchange. Ticketmaster will also expand its role in ticketing-related aspects of event planning and execution for marquee NHL events including the NHL Winter Classic, NHL All-Star Weekend, NHL Stadium Series, and others. As part of the renewal, the NHL will leverage Ticketmaster Presence, the next-generation digital ticketing and access control platform, in NHL arenas next season. ESPORTS Overwatch League Commissioner Nate Nanzer is moving from Junkertown to Junk Junction, announcing his departure from Activision Blizzard this week, while Epic Games confirmed to media that he would join their company to oversee esports for its games, including Fortnite. “Hey Overwatch League family," Nanzer posted on Twitter on Friday. "I wanted to share that soon I will be leaving Blizzard for a new opportunity. This has been the toughest decision of my life, because it means I won't get to work with the best staff, players, teams, owners, partners, and fans in esports anymore. "I can't emphasize enough how proud I am of what we've all accomplished together. It has been the honor of my life to have been part of the team that helped build the league of #breakthrough, #BurnBlue, #pdomjnate, #CaptureHistory, #OWL2019, and many more.” Pete Vlastelica, who oversees all of Activision Blizzard's esports products, will step in as Nanzer’s replacement.
