Underdog Sports has partnered with McConnell Golf to support its application for a sports betting licence in North Carolina.
The deal states Underdog will host, manage, operate and support online gambling services with McConnell Golf-operated Sedgefield Country Club. Located in Greensboro, North Carolina, the venue hosts the PGA Tour’s Wyndham Championship.
Underdog said the deal is part of its licence application. Operators seeking approval to run sports betting in the state must partner with a sports team, league or venue within North Carolina.
Traditionally focused on daily fantasy sports, Underdog has recently expanded into sports betting. However, the operator is yet to launch wagering, despite having secured a sports betting licence in Ohio in late 2022.
