Saudi state-owned oil company Aramco is the largest global sponsor of women’s golf (a fact which led LIV CEO Greg Norman to call out critics of the new series for “deafening” hypocrisy). Saudi Arabia has ramped up its spending on international sports in a broad campaign started by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after he was appointed to the throne in 2017, said Nader Hashemi, director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Denver. With an investment of more than $2 billion (all figures U.S.), activists called it one of the most ambitious projects yet in the Saudi regime’s strategy to “sportswash” its reputation.īut it’s far from the only part of an effort that observers says is aimed both at appeasing citizens within the kingdom and the wider global community.

That’s all we’re trying to do.”Įarlier this year, the LIV golf tour threw the pro golf world into disarray. I think everybody has,” said Perez’s peer Brooks Koepka, sounding exasperated.
I’ve got the opportunity to play golf, and that’s it,” golfer Pat Perez said at last week’s news conference, responding to a question about 9/11 victims’ families protesting outside the golf club.

The Crystal Guard update goes live in Rainbow Six Siege's Test Server on August 17.It was the first North American date of the new Saudi Arabia-backed LIV golf tour. Along with Osa, the new season has reworked three of the game's maps, Bank, Club, and Coastline, along with other adjustments. She was written by a queer person and she is voiced by a trans woman – and while her identity is certainly influenced by her gender, who she is in the Siege universe is centered on her talents, her influence on Nighthaven, and her close friendship to Kali."Ĭrystal Guard is the third season of content during Year 6 of Rainbow Siege.
The consultants, all of whom are trans people, wanted to make sure that Osa was presented as authentically and organically as possible. "The decision to create a transgender character was made early on, as part of our initiative to have an inclusive roster of Operators. GameSpot reached out to Ubisoft for confirmation of Osa being transgender, with writer Simon Ducharme responding with the following: When speaking about her time at the University of Zagreb, the bio mentions that she "found herself isolated due to her unorthodox approach and others' attitudes towards her transition." Osa's gender identity was not acknowledged during a recent preview event for the new season, and the game makes no reference to Osa being trans outside of one line mentioning a "transition" in her biography (seen below).
