Women's sports surpassed $2.35 billion in global revenue in 2025, nearly doubling from $1.88 billion in 2024. North America led global growth with 59% of 2024 revenue, while basketball became the top revenue-generating women's sport at $1.03 billion (44%), followed by soccer at $820 million (35%).



Commercial revenue surpassed $1 billion globally in 2024 for the first time, including sponsorships, partnerships, merchandising sales, and pre-season tour income.

This wasn't potential anymore, it was proof that when infrastructure and opportunity meet, women's sports transform the entire business of sport. [RS]
