British esports franchise Team Dignitas, which was recently acquired by NBA team Philadelphia 76ers, has appointed a new CEO, former game development executive Jonathan Kemp.Kemp was the managing director of Eidos Interactives UK front, which was acquired by Square Enix for £84.3 million in 2009. During his time at Eidos, the company published games in the Tomb Raider and Hitman video game series. After leaving Eidos, he acted as the International Olympic Committees interactive entertainment partner during the London Olympic Games in 2012.Kemp joins Dignitas after it was acquired by the Philadelphia 76ers along with Apex Gaming on Sept. 26. With the merger, the team appointed a new chairman for the organization, Greg Richardson, who also has worked in video and gaming industries before his time with Team Dignitas.We obviously have big ambitions, relative to having a championship caliber team for every game we compete in, Team Dignitas chairman Greg Richardson tells ESPN. We also want to build an exciting business that can give back to the fans real value across every aspect of the business. So as we stepped back and looked at everything that had to get done, both with the team building and the business operations, we clearly needed a world-class CEO to make that happen. We werent sure if that was something we need to do right away or needed to wait, but when the opportunity to work with Jonathan came along, it felt like it was too good of an opportunity to pass up to get someone of his caliber in. So we kind of accelerated our plans.The Dignitas organization now has a presence in some of the industrys biggest esports, including League of Legends, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm and Smite. The organization was originally founded in 2003 by Michael ODEE ODell as a Battlefield 1942 clan. With the acquisition by the 76ers, ODell has moved to an operations manager position.

SAN DIEGO -- Rod Lavers grand accomplishment wont be duplicated for another year, and hes as surprised as anyone.Since?Novak Djokovic lost to Sam Querrey on Saturday in the third round at Wimbledon, Djokovic cant match Lavers run of winning a Grand Slam in a calendar year.Laver, who was attending the Yankees-Padres game on Saturday night, is the last player to win all four majors in a single calendar year, doing it for the second time in 1969.The 77-year-old Laver couldnt believe Djokovic stumbled, losing 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (5).I am still totally surprised that Querrey beat him, Laver said. I still thought he could pull it off.Instead the No. 1-ranked Djokovic, who won this years Australian Open and French Open, was ousted in a match that took two days because of rain delays. Djokovic, the two-time defending Wimbledon champion, needed to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open to join Laver and Don Budge as the only men to claim the calendar-year Grand Slam.Djokovic won four straightt majors, but not in a calendar year.ddddddddddddHe just wasnt himself, something was off, Laver said. I think maybe he felt winning all four titles and being the defending champion of all four was a Grand Slam in his mind.And so even if it wasnt in the calendar year, it didnt matter. Way back in there somewhere you are thinking one thing, that it doesnt matter, but you are thinking it does matter. Those are two different thoughts to have when you are playing.Laver thought after all these years someone would have joined him and Budge.Im still happy to have the title, but I dont own it, Laver said. I would have liked to have been at the US Open and be the first to shake Djokovics hand if he did it. Don Budge did that for me in 1962 at Forest Hills.What did he say?Welcome to an exclusive club, Laver said.Its one that wont admit another member this year. ' ' '
