Golf Event Centre

Heralding a new era for golf betting

Underpinned by our long-term investment in the world’s leading golf tours and tournaments, the Golf Event Centre is a one-stop shop for golf fans.

The purpose-built sports betting solution is an industry-first product that enables interactive in-play betting on golf for the first time.

Delivering a totally new front-end solution, our FastPath Data feeds combine with live streaming to allow fans to ‘step inside’ the ropes. Live and historical event statistics, detailed visualisations and ultra-responsive markets are presented via 2D and 3D interfaces, to create a unique fan experience.
