Grass League

Las Vegas is the latest market to bet big on the potential for par-3 primetime golf.

The Grass League – an up-and-coming high stakes competition that blends professional and amateur golfers in a team-centered format — has awarded its next expansion franchise to Las Vegas. The franchise was acquired for $1 million by The Sports Group Endeavors, as golf becomes the latest sport to call Las Vegas home. In the past decade, Las Vegas has added the Raiders (NFL), Golden Knights (NHL), Aces (WNBA), and the city will soon bring in the Athletics (MLB).

The expansion comes at a pivotal time for the Grass League, which is set to cap its season with the GL Championship Dec. 5-6 at its flagship host site: Grass Clippings Rolling Hills in Tempe, Arizona. The league said it is exploring options for a dedicated home course in the Las Vegas market.

“Las Vegas is becoming one of the most exciting sports cities in the world, and we believe the Action can grow into a franchise that reflects the energy, competition, and creativity that define this market,” said SG Ellison, who is part of the ownership group and has built one of the largest Taco Bell franchise networks in the country (including a significant presence in Las Vegas). “We look forward to building a team that the community can rally behind and that showcases the future of the sport.”

Joining Ellison in the Action’s ownership group are AQ Shipley, a 12-year NFL veteran who’s now a radio analyst for the Arizona Cardinals; Brandon Stein, who has led real estate development in the Las Vegas region for more than two decades; and former TaylorMade, adidas and Taco Bell CEO Mark King.

Grass League competition under the lights

Grass League

Many of the owners of the 10 current Grass League franchises reflect the league’s effort to straddle competition and culture, with a mix of influential leaders across sports, entertainment, and business. Other notable owners and ownership groups in the league include Good Good Golf, Los Angeles Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts, former PGA Tour professional and Travis Mathew co-founder John Mallinger, and current PGA Tour golfer Wyndham Clark.

“We are excited to continue introducing key sports markets into the Grass League—markets that represent cutting-edge ownership, culture, content, and energy,” said Grass League Co-Founder and CEO Jake Hoselton. “Las Vegas is exactly that kind of market. It resonates with a global audience and is essential to our expansion now and into the future.

Future Venue?

With events streamed on Peacock, Golf Channel and YouTube, the Grass League continues to grow its primetime golf experience that blends high-stakes, pressure-packed golf with creator style storytelling. But new venues are also a part of the expansion plans and, with Las Vegas, it’s a process that could reshape short-course golf in Southern Nevada.

One intriguing possibility is the former Las Vegas Golf Center, just minutes from the Strip, which closed at the end of 2024. It had a lighted, 9-hole par-3 course with appealing proximity to the casino resorts and the airport.

Another possibility might be the Cloud 9 course at Angel Park, which has nine of its 12 par-3 holes fully lit for nighttime play and already provides accessible, fast-paced golf built for energetic evening crowds. No determinations on venue have been made at this point.

In mid-2025, the Grass League closed a $2.75 million round of funding to help accelerate its mission to establish par 3 golf as a standalone sport. At the time, the league also started taking applications for a new franchise.

The Grass League said it can support up to 24 franchises and anticipates adding roughly one new franchise a year going forward, with potential U.S. markets including Boston, San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, Austin, Houston, and Miami. South Korea, Tokyo and Mexico City are among those identified as expansion spots internationally.

The league’s current lineup of franchises includes 10 franchises in seven states:

  • Dallas Horsemen
  • Hollywood Hitters
  • Los Angeles Roses
  • Michigan Auto Aces
  • Minnesota Muskies
  • New York Blue Birds
  • Phoenix United
  • San Diego Munis
  • Scottsdale Strikers
  • Tampa Bay Swamp Dawgs

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
