Too late. They’ve already invested massive amounts of money into owning European soccer teams and sponsoring major sporting events in Europe for several decades.
Now they’re getting into the NBA, WNBA, and NHL. The Qatar Investment Authority just purchased a 5% interest in the group that owns several Washington teams, including the Wizards, Capitals, and Mystics.

Golf hurt, as that was probably my second favorite sport until it died at The Masters earlier this year. (At least for me, couldn’t watch it.)
But hey, more free time.

Tennis. The sport for overpaid, underworked, spoiled, self centred brats.
