(London = Yonhap News) Correspondent Choi Yoon-jeong = ‘Faker’ Sang-hyeok Lee, captain of the domestic League of Legends (LoL) professional gaming team T1 and winner of the 2023 World Championship (Worlds Cup), was included in this year’s list of top 10 sports powers selected by British daily The Times. I put my name up.
On the 15th (local time), The Times introduced Faker as one of the 10 most influential figures in the world of global sports and placed his photo in the center of the online version of the article.
The Times introduced that Faker is nicknamed ‘The Unkillable Demon King’ and is a member of the Korean team T1, which won the 2023 World Championship.
The Times doesn’t usually cover e-sports in its sports section, but said it won’t be long before Faker becomes a mainstream Olympic star like Usain Bolt.
In addition, The Times selected Yasir Al-Rumayan, governor of the Public Investment Fund (PIF), Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, as a key figure in the sports world.
PIF owns the Saudi Arabian golf organization LIV Golf, and in soccer, following the acquisition of Newcastle of the English Premier League (EPL) two years ago, it purchased four Saudi league clubs this year.
In addition, soccer player Lionel Messi, who moved to the United States, Shohei Ohtani, who recorded the highest contract in MLB history (10 years and $700 million), Australian women’s soccer star Sam Kerr, influencer and mixed martial artist, etc. YouTuber KSI, who organizes boxing matches, was included in the power list.
