Businessweek POWER 100
Businessweek.com опубликовал свой список самых влиятельных спортсмен в 2010 году - POWER 100.
Этот список был создан совместно с фирмами CSE и Horrow Sports Ventures. Это рейтинг влиятельности действующих спортсмен в 2010 году. При том только те, кто играл на территории США. Поэтому тренеры, агенты, владельцы спортивных клубов, и даже атлеты которые уже прекратили свою спортивную карьеру не были включены.
Показатели которые фирмы использовали для создания рейтинга были спортивные и не-спортивные (вне спорта).
Эти две группы имели одинаковой весомости (50%) в определении рейтинга влиятельности. В тех видов спорта где есть официальный рейтинг игроков, как например теннис, бокс, Формула 1, гольф и т.д., этот рейтинг составлял спортивную часть показателей.
А в спортах где нет такой рейтинг были использованы показатели для которых есть статистические данные. Например в футболе использовались количество голов и асистенции на 1 матч.
Показатели вне спорта были спонсорский потенциал (80%) и спонсорские деньги (20%), которые спортсмен получил в 2010 году.
Для оценки спонсорского потенциала был использован индекс "E-Poll N-Score" фирмы Nielsen.
Полный список 100 спортсмен "POWER 100" я выложил внизу.
Не хочу высказывать мнение об этом рейтинге, но хочу отметить что индекс "E-Poll N-Score" фирмы Nielsen вызвал не мало отрицательных оценок, потому что оценил спонсорский потенциал так, что много спортсмен которые не имеют спонсоры или имеют, но мало, получили более высокий индекс чем спортсмен, которые уже имеют много спонсорских договоров. И Вы как я согласитесь с многими американскими коментаторами, которые спрашивали "а вы покупите то что Shaun White будет рекламировать?". Потому что Shaun White получил лучший индекс среди все мужчин! Комментаторы тоже ставили под сомнений и некоторые другие лидеры - после Shaun White следовали Shaquille O′Neal, Apolo Ohno, Peyton Manning and Michael Phelps. А среди женщин Винус Уильямс получила лучший индекс, больше Вонн, Серены, Даники и Марии ( Lindsey Vonn, Serena Williams, Danica Patrick and Maria Sharapova).
Так как этот индекс влияет 80% на показателей вне спорта, разумеется его влияние сразу можно увидеть и в списке POWER 100.
В этом списке есть и теннисисты:
Федерер занял 15-ое место, Надаль 16-ое, Серена 18-ое, Винус 32-ое, Ким 64-ое, Мария 83-ое место. Но среди женщин Вонн первая, а Серена вторая.
Я всегда отношусь скептично к рейтингам несмотря какие они, потому что они всегда очень субъективны.
И всегда отношусь по-другому когда речь идет о более реальные показатели.
Но этот список POWER 100 дает инфо и по приходам спортсменов.
И конечно я последую английскую традицию настаивая "show me the money!".
К счастье список дает и количество денег, которые спортсмены заработали в 2010 году.
По этому показателю "влиятельность" спортсмен совершенно другая.
Конечно Мария на первом месте среди женщин с 24 миллионов долларов.
Но более важно что ее опережают только 18 мужчин.
Серена заработала 20.2 миллиона, Винус 15.4, Ким 15.0, а Вонн 2.6.
Да, Вонн заработала только 2.6 миллиона!
Но какая она влиятельная!
Просто не понять почему спонсоры не платят ее при такой влиятельности, наверно дураки они.
Уточню что это ирония, потому что часто не понимаете мой юмор.
Наверно и Вы найдете в этом списке недостатки, но все таки интересно знать что думает Businessweek.com
