FanDuel to offer fantasy golf as its merger with DraftKings nears

Daily Fantasy Sports giant FanDuel is swallowing its pride for the sake of its harmonious relationship with its rival DraftKings.

FanDuel is reportedly adding golf to the list of sports it offers as its merger with DraftKings nears, according to Yahoo! Finance.

Back in its heyday in 2014, FanDuel CEO wasn’t keen on introducing fantasy golf due to issues on its legality. But two months after DraftKings and FanDuel agreed to merge, the latter made several changes to its lineup, including the offering of fantasy golf.

The fantasy golf is said to be the first new sport that FanDuel added to its product in three years and its addition comes just two months after it started offering English Premier League (EPL) soccer to its sports lineup.
