PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said his sport has done a lot of work preparing to engage in gaming and sports betting later in 2019.
“We’ve spent a lot of time over the last two and a half years clearly understanding all of our options and getting ourselves in a position where we can participate. Participate with the right partners, and participate in a way that we think resonates with fans,” he said. “Without getting in front of it, I think you can expect to hear developments from us in the second half of this year.”
Monahan spoke on the red carpet at Wednesday night’s Sports Business Awards, where his PGA Tour predecessor, Tim Finchem, received a Lifetime Achievement Award.
