Ten existing DraftKings players will be selected from each respective country to fly the flag for Australia or UK with two captains leading the teams.

10/8 – CS:GO – E-Sports
12/8 – Soccer – Champions League
13-16/8 – PGA Wyndham Championship

We are excited for the contest to kick off and to watch the players compete for the prestigious title.
“As a digital sports entertainment and gaming company we aim to fuel the competitive spirits of fans and this initiative will help further drive engagement from both our existing customers and sports enthusiasts around the globe.”— Jeffrey Haas, SVP of International Strategy at DraftKings
