FanDuel Sportsbook looks to expand upon betting momentum in golf with PGA TOUR deal
(PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA) – The PGA TOUR and FanDuel Sportsbook agreed today on a multi-year content and marketing relationship designating FanDuel an Official Betting Operator of the PGA TOUR.
“We have long admired FanDuel’s brand, product and marketing strategies as well as the leadership position it has taken since the legalization of sports betting in 2018,” said Norb Gambuzza, SVP, Media and Gaming at the PGA TOUR. “We are excited to bring FanDuel into the PGA TOUR’s Official Betting Operator program as we continue to engage new fans in this rapidly growing space.”
FanDuel Sportsbook has seen substantial growth in golf gaming:
- Golf has recorded the highest single event handle on FanDuel Sportsbook over nine of the last 12 Sundays.
- FanDuel Sportsbook’s total golf handle in New Jersey in 2020 already has surpassed the total golf handle from 2019, even without [13] weeks of PGA TOUR competitions during the shutdown.
“Golf interest is up on FanDuel, so we are excited to deepen our relationship with the PGA TOUR,” said Mike Raffensperger, CMO FanDuel Group. “We will now be able to offer unique gaming experiences on our platform, special TOUR related promotions for our customers and an enhanced content experience across the TOUR’s properties to really prove to bettors across the nation that there are More Ways to Win at FanDuel.”
Following the Supreme Court’s decision that overturned the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) in 2018, the TOUR instituted an integrity program in collaboration with Genius Sports to protect its competitions from betting-related corruption. Later that year, the TOUR announced a global partnership with IMG ARENA to license its official, live scoring data to betting operators all over the world.
The PGA TOUR is a Platinum Member of the National Council on Problem Gambling, committed to industry-leading responsible gaming practices.

Good day. Personally I have been making bets on tennis for a long time and I use only popular proven bookmakers. For example now I work with GGbet, they provide cool mobile application, very comfortable in use. Also I always check https://tennisbetslab.com/ site for the best odds. And what sites do you use?
No need to be so formal, man. In sports betting we are all buddies. So you are a tennis fan, right? Then you will certainly appreciate this 777score.com website where you can check the odds. If you haven't found the bookmaker yet, visit the special section and pick one or several for this matter. Bye!
