Women’s sports revenue is expected to hit a record-breaking $2.35 billion this year—a whopping 25% year-over-year increase, according to a 2025 Deloitte report.

Alexis Ohanian, founding control owner of Angel City FC and Los Angeles Golf Club, and creator of professional women’s track and field event series Athlos, said at the Fortune Global Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Monday that it’s the result of an increase in team valuation investments.
