JSW Sports Management Agency for the Athletes

JSW came into the spotlight as the sports manager after Sakshi Malik was signed by the Nissan to be the face of the DATSUN Redi-GO Sport. This happened right after she won the bronze medal for wrestling at the Rio Olympics.

Similarly, many other players and sportsperson who were trained under JSW group have returned back to continue their commercial activities. Even the javelin throwers like Neeraj Chopra and other wrestlers like Bajrang Punia and Pooja Dhanda.

Sports Management Agency for the Athletes

The main purpose of sports management for athletes is to provide funds so as to help the athletes to prepare and work for international games.

Mustafa Ghouse, CEO of JSW Sports told the Economic Times- ‘It was after the win of Sakshi Malik that we seriously got into the work, for making it bigger and better than before. We slowly began providing the commercial requirements of the player and planning out their activities in a complete holistic manner’.

What’s next?

JSW has already put up their plans for the partnership with the National Rifle Association of India, NRAI. The partnership will have JSW funding the NRAI for bringing more advanced and high performing resources for the shooting athletes. This will help the Indian Shooting Athletes to work for the upcoming Paris and Tokyo Olympics.

TennisNews: Rafael Nadal and Simona Halep get the Roger Titles!

Stefanos who turned 20 on Sunday, defeated Dominic Thiem, Novak Djokovic, and Alexander Zverev to get through the finals. But unfortunately, Stefanos lost the match with a score of 6-2, 7-6 and a 7-4. He did set one point during the 12th play in the second set, but he couldn’t convert the score later.

Tsitsipas got through an unseeded win and was selected as a finalist in Canada after Nicolas Kiefer from Germany in 2008. Well, Tsitsipas indeed won many fans during the match with his unique moves and the extrovert persona.

But Rafael stood focussed all throughout the game, even though the crowd cheered for the birthday boy and his first ever Master Series final match!

Coming to the women’s final, Halep gave in a dramatic first-set that led to a tie-breaking situation after a service of total three-breaks. She competed with Sloane Stephens and lost in the second set before recovering the points in the decider.

Simona Halep had won the Rogers title in the year 2016, and this was her second win. The game lasted for about 2 hours and 41 minutes, and the weather was too hot which made the game more exhausting. During the game, both the players were feeling the same heat, both of them struggling for the breath, and carrying out excellent rallies!

Halep added, that she just didn’t want to give up on the game at any moment, and she fought for it till the end. She also added that the tournament was held for a week and she couldn’t believe it’s over and the game tired her a lot.

World Cup Favourites

1. Belgium

This team plays it really well, but haven’t won any of the major tournament yet. They have reached the semi-finals twice and lost the matches. With highly talented players on the team, Belgium stands as a strong competitor in the game. Kevin De Bruyne mentioned how the team requires to build a better tactical system apart from using the gaming talents.

2. Argentina

Just putting all the pressure on Messi’s shoulders is not the way of playing. We can hope to see some changes during the game, in a positive way of course. Just like the team trounced Italy with a 2-0 score without the presence of Messi!

3. France

They are the World Cup holders of the year 1998, the game which was hosted in France itself. They have a bunch of quality players, 3 among which remain the highest paid footballers ever found in the history. France has a good set of players, and now it depends on the coach Didier Deschamps how he’s going train them and set them up for the match.

4. Brazil

The team with the highest winnings in the history of World Cups! Brazil is all set to keep the legacy continued for the upcoming matches. The only question is the availability of Neymar for the game, which will be revealed soon.

5. Portugal

Portugal got placed into the World Cup squad with their win of 2-0 against Switzerland. They also have Cristiano Ronaldo, who even at the age of 33 stands strong for the team.

6. Germany

Well, Germany ranks as the top team alongside Brazil. While Germany only needs some current holders and a World Cup to match up with that of Brazil. They remained unbeaten for 22 games, with some friendly draws against England, France, but they lost it out to Brazil with a score of 1-0!
