During this time, FanDuel has experienced periods of strong performance alongside meaningful change and transformation. We wish her every success for the future. I'm delighted that Christian will lead the business. He has a strong track record at FanDuel and deep market knowledge, and we are confident he will build momentum and continue strengthening FanDuel's position as the leading online sportsbook and iGaming operator in the US.
