🗣️ "I am hyper-focused on putting this sport up there with other professional sports because it belongs there. I'm focused on getting our athletes up there with the rest of those athletes and giving them a platform to compete and show why they're the best because they belong there. They deserve that. The sport deserves that. The fans who want to see that deserve that. And I'm focused on making sure they get it." With less than a month to go until the debut of @GrandSlamTrack, Commissioner @MJGold re-joined The @CITIUSMAG Podcast to share about the state of things, goals for the first season, details on the strategy behind the TV deal + other partnerships and much more. Always a good mix of sports biz talk + being track nerds with him.
