European Tour Fantasy Golf

Fantasy golf on the PGA Tour was one of the most popular sports on the market, adding the European Tour only benefits everybody involved

Firstly, let’s all hope Daily Fantasy Golf will still be around in 2016. With all the hoopla surrounding Daily Fantasy Sports and the legality of it and what not, hopefully it will still be around next year.

    • Now, if it is and golf doesn’t get the axe, then these sites like DraftKings should think about adding the European Tour as apart of their games next year.

    Fantasy golf exploded this year and I would have to say it’s right with the NFL and NBA in terms of popularity.

    The prize pool for the majors continued to grow and all throughout the summer golf continued to grow in popularity.

    Even with the NFL coming back to the fold that did not effect golf. DraftKings seemed to anticipate a regression, but it didn’t happen.

    All the games in their lobby filled in with ease. Even at the heart of the NFL season and even when the PGA Tour had tournaments like the Shriners Open, the CIMB Classic, and the RSM Classic, etc. the games still filled in with ease.

    Golf is hugely popular and adding more golf like the European Tour only benefits everybody. And this is something that might happen.

    DraftKings recently applied for a gaming license in the UK, so perhaps we’ll see more sports and games that are centered around Europe, including the European Tour.
