Nazara's stake in Nodwin to drop below 50% after internal fundraise
Nazara Technologies, the only publicly listed gaming company in India, will cease to be the majority shareholder in its subsidiary Nodwin Gaming, as Nodwin prepares for an internal fundraise. Nodwin will be reclassified as an associate company from its current status as a subsidiary following the fundraise. Nodwin is raising fresh capital from certain existing shareholders. However, Nazara will not participate in the proposed funding round in Nodwin. Nazara's stake in Nodwin is expected to fall below 50 per cent. It will, however, remain the largest shareholder in Nodwin even after the de-subsidiarisation. 'The proposed capital raise will result in the shareholding of the company (Nazara) in Nodwin falling below 50 per cent. Further, in order to support Nodwin's next phase of growth and provide it with the operational and financial flexibility needed to raise timely funding, the company has also decided to waive certain controlling and restrictive rights it currently holds as the majority shareholder,' it said. Nodwin's fundraise comes at a time when the company plans to 'pursue aggressive growth in its e-sports and youth media business'. In December 2024, the Nazara board had approved an investment of Rs 64 crore in Nodwin. Nazara had acquired a majority stake of 55 per cent in Nodwin Gaming in 2018. It had then said that it planned to leverage its investments in the mobile and digital sports category to build intellectual properties (IPs) in the e-sports space along with Nodwin in categories such as soccer, cricket, and other traditional sports.

Steffi Graf net worth: The net worth of tennis legend who remains the sole Golden Slam champion
Credit: Instagram/ Steffi Graf When Iga Swiatek walked off Centre Court after delivering a ruthless 6-0, 6-0 demolition of Amanda Anisimova in the Wimbledon final, the record books made us look to a familiar page. Only one woman in the Open Era had ever achieved a 'double bagel' in a Grand Slam final before. Her name? Steffi Graf. In 1988, Graf dismantled Natasha Zvereva with the same scoreline in the French Open final. That year, she didn't just win Paris, she won everything. All four Grand Slams and Olympic gold. The only tennis player in history, male or female, to capture a Golden Slam in a single calendar year. While this moment belongs to Swiatek, it also makes this a perfect moment to look back on a legend whose career redefined dominance. Golden career and hard work Credit: Instagram/ Steffi Graf Steffi Graf was born on June 14, 1969, in Mannheim, West Germany. Her father, Peter Graf, who was a car and insurance salesman, was also an ambitious tennis coach. He famously began training his daughter in their living room before she ever set foot on a court. By the age of 4, Graf was already on the ground swinging rackets. At five, she entered her first tournament. At six, she was taking formal lessons. And by 13 years and four months, she turned professional, ranking 124 in her debut season. She climbed to No. 6 by 1985 and all this without a single tour-level title to her name. Unlike most teen phenoms, Graf's schedule was tightly controlled. Peter Graf limited her tournament entries, shielding her from burnout. In 1985, she played 10 events leading up to the U.S. Open. For comparison, her rival Gabriela Sabatini, one year younger, played 21. Grand slams and more As per an ESPN report, Graf's training regimen was merciless: four hours a day, sometimes right off a plane. It was this hard work that prepared her for every situation. Her crowning achievement came in 1988—the year of the Golden Slam. In winning the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, U.S. Open, and Olympic gold in Seoul, Graf joined Margaret Court and Maureen Connolly as the only women to sweep the Slams—but she remains the only one to add Olympic gold. Credit: Instagram/ Steffi Graf Over her career, she claimed 22 Grand Slam singles titles and, for a long time, held the record for the most Grand Slams in the Open Era, until Serena Williams surpassed it in 2017. Net worth Steffi Graf's financial legacy matches her sporting one. As of 2024, her net worth stands at approximately $145 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Combined with her husband, fellow tennis icon Andre Agassi, their joint fortune edges close to the $300 million mark. Beyond prize money, she built a savvy business portfolio anchored by a long-standing relationship with Adidas, where she launched her line of signature sneakers. She also appeared in high-profile commercials for Opel in Germany, reinforcing her status as a national icon. Off-camera, Graf and her husband, Andre Agassi, co-manage a diversified investment portfolio that includes stakes in tech firms, wellness brands, and fitness ventures

Forget the Fab Four: Wimbledon's success shows tennis fans have already moved on
Surging stadium attendances and record Grand Slam viewership make one thing clear that tennis fans are ready to move beyond the Fab Four and embrace the sport's rising stars. read more Wimbledon 2025's viewership success has shown that the tennis fans have already moved on from the Fab Four. Images: Reuters The fading away of tennis' 'Fab Four' is having little impact on viewership for major tournaments, as Wimbledon 2025 proved a massive success for both ESPN and the BBC. The grass-court major concluded on Sunday with Jannik Sinner winning the men's singles title and Iga Swiatek claiming the women's crown. For both Sinner and Swiatek, it was their first Wimbledon title, as the tournament marked yet another edition where the influence of the Fab Four continues to fade. The last man standing from the iconic group, Novak Djokovic, lost in straight sets to Sinner in the semi-finals. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Wimbledon viewership rises despite no Nadal, Federer That, however, had little impact on the viewership numbers for the Gentlemen's final, which also included two-time champion Carlos Alcaraz. The summit clash that ended in four sets averaged 2.9 million viewers on ESPN, a 31% increase compared to 2024. It was also the most viewed final since 2019. It's not just the men's final, but other matches have also broken new ground. As per ESPN, the women's semi-finals, including USA's Amanda Anisimova beating world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, had the highest viewership since 2015. In 2015, Serena Williams was still a part of the top four. The men's semi-finals average 1.31 million views, again the highest since 2019. The Ladies' Championship was won by Swiatek in a lopsided contest against Anisimova as she won 6-0, 6-0. She is Wimbledon's eighth consecutive first-time women's champion since Williams won her seventh and final title in 2016. Nonetheless, her final match witnessed a rise of 18% in viewership as compared to 2024. Interestingly, the first day of Wimbledon 2025 set the record for the most viewed Wimbledon Day One on ESPN. Meanwhile, Wimbledon set a new record with 69.3 million online requests on BBC Sport between 30 June and 13 July, the highest digital engagement ever recorded for the tournament. 'This year's record-breaking digital figures for Wimbledon are testament to the huge appeal of the sport amongst audiences and the power of digital innovation to bring both new and existing fans closer to the action than ever before. The way people are following Wimbledon is changing but that is exciting for us as we look to tell the best stories in different ways,' Alex Kay-Jelski, Director of BBC Sport, said. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD French and Australia Opens witness similar growth The growing viewership numbers for tennis matches are not just limited to Wimbledon. The French Open final between Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka earlier this year was the most-watched women's final at Roland Garros since 2016. The men's final in which Alcaraz won a marathon five-setter against Sinner attracted 1.8 million viewers, making it the most-watched men's final since Novak Djokovic defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the 2021 finals (1.9 million). The Australian Open 2025 had also registered record-breaking attendance numbers, as 1,218,831 fans attended the tournament, the most in history. If anything, the rapidly growing stadium attendance and record-breaking Grand Slam viewership numbers point to one clear truth: tennis fans are ready to move on from the Fab Four and embrace a new generation of stars. For those who feared the sport would suffer in popularity after the retirements of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal and with Novak Djokovic losing his grip, those concerns have proven unfounded.
