"Macau has been told over and over again to focus less on Chinese VIPs and more on non-gaming but they pretty much paid lip service to that idea. So now... they have to really make a hard divert to that philosophy," Yin said.

Genting´s strong non-gaming track record, including operating two of the largest theme parks in southeast Asia, would be a big draw for Beijing which has been urging Macau to diversify away from gambling and attract foreign tourists.
It would cause "far too much disruption" if any of the six operators were replaced, said Terry Ng, an analyst at Daiwa in Hong Kong, although other industry watchers note the incumbents have left themselves vulnerable to an operator like Genting which lost out on a Macau licence in 2002.

Matches at Wembley are becoming increasingly common for the Lionesses, but Scragg is one of the few women to have played at the old Wembley, having taken part in two 15-minute matches against Scotland as a warm-up to the men's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Crystal Palace in 1990.

Xbox maker Microsoft announced the $69 billion acquisition of "Call of Duty" maker Activision Blizzard Inc in January and has pledged to keep the hit franchise on PlayStation beyond the existing agreement with Activision.

A shortened license period of 10 years from 20 years is also not a problem, Song said, as the government would re-allocate facilities and resources to Genting if it won a license, so they "don´t actually need to build everything from the ground."

Besides giving insight into what her life as a professional athlete's girlfriend entails, Morgan is a huge tennis fan and also always makes sure to show her support for her boyfriend and the sport online. 

They began dating in 2005, and over the last 17 years, Maria, who also goes by Mery or Xisca, has done her best to stay out of the spotlight; she doesn't use social media and he hardly ever shares any pictures with her
Her eight years with the national team were spent playing on boggy pitches that contained little grass.
But once she arrived at the Lionesses' luxury training pitch behind the impressive resort, she realised just how much times have changed since her first cap 35 years ago.

Only six slots will be available for the seven applicants, Macau´s government has said, as Genting Malaysia goes head-to-head with the six concessionaires Sands China, Wynn Macau, Galaxy Entertainment, MGM China , Melco Resorts and Poker Pkv SJM Holdings as their concessions expire at year-end.

‘I remember one Friday we were in Leeds and we were going for a little stroll to walk off the car journey, down a little cul-de-sac, and the manager made us stop at the end. He had us stretching, imagine opening your curtains now and seeing 20 England ladies in shell-suits at that time!

After her brother Alan was harassed online for the color of his skin, Ashalley-Anthony made it her mission to build a community where people could play together away from the racism, misogyny and homophobia sometimes associated with online games.

Before Morgan, Taylor was married to fellow tennis player Raquel Pedraza - whom he wed in 2016 at the age of 18. They welcomed a son together in 2017, named Jordan Fritz, but announced that they were divorcing in December 2019.

Ghana is one of the countries leading the way. The West African nation had the continent's second highest per-capita gaming population in 2021, with 27% of citizens actively playing, according to Esports analytics leader Newzoo.

Four years ago, Ashalley-Anthony and her two brothers established a crew of video game enthusiasts dedicated to providing a safe space for online gamers of diverse ethnicities, sexual orientations and gender identities.

According to her LinkedIn account, Maria (seen in 2018) graduated from the University of the Balearic Islands in 2010 with a degree in business management. She now works for Rafael's organization, The Rafa Nadal Foundation, where she is the CEO

"They have a strong chance to topple one of the incumbents...and Genting would have been encouraged to come in. With their background it makes a lot of sense," said Ben Lee, founder of Macau gaming consultancy IGamiX.

British-Ghanaian gamer Annabel Ashalley-Anthony smiled at her brother Adam, after the tournament match at a gaming hub organized by Melanin Gamers, a collective she hopes will change the video game landscape.
