Also on the PGA website, news appeared that moves the frontier of betting forward.
Inside the institutional website of the PGA Tour we find GolfBet, the official betting hub of the Tour, where bettors and enthusiasts have at their disposal, in addition to the odds of the totalizator, which vary from day to day, also information on the players, all the possible and imaginable statistics and the comments of the experts.
A synergic agreement between the PGA Tour, PENN Entertainment and ESPN has led to the birth of LIVE betting.
Pga, betting
ESPN BET is a platform that will be streaming on ESPN+, where it will be possible to bet on events scheduled on PGA Tour Live.
At the moment there are six tournaments on the calendar where ESPN BET will operate:

Obviously, the data and contents in the PGA Tour databases will be available (and usable for betting purposes) on the new platform.
The Rules of Golf are a set of rules and standard procedures by which the sport of golf should be played. They are jointly written and administered by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, the governing body of golf throughout the world, except in the United States and Mexico, which are governed by the United States Golf Association. An expert committee, made up of members of the R&A and the USGA, oversees and refines the Rules every four years. The latest revision was effective January 1, 2016. Changes to the Rules of Golf generally fall into two main categories: those that improve understanding of the Rules and those that reduce penalties in certain cases to ensure balance. The rulebook, entitled "The Rules of Golf," is published on a regular basis and also includes rules governing amateur status. In Italy, the Federgolf is responsible for supervising competitions by enforcing the rules issued by the R & A, checking that these rules are observed by the Clubs, Associations and their members and managing the resulting sporting justice, protecting their interests abroad.
