Apple Rolls Out New Sports App, Latest Push Into Sports
By Will Feuer
Apple is rolling out a new, free iPhone app to deliver real-time scores, stats and more to sports fans, the company's latest push into the sports world.
The app, called Apple Sports, is available for download in the U.S., the U.K. and Canada.
"We created Apple Sports to give sports fans what they want -- an app that delivers incredibly fast access to scores and stats," said Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of services.
The app will include stats from major leagues, including Major League Soccer, the National Basketball Association and college basketball. The company said it plans to add other leagues over time.
Apple has been deepening its presence in the sports world. The iPhone maker has in recent years bought the broadcast rights for some Major League Baseball and MLS games.
