New Yorkers are going to experience wagering on PGA Tour’s Northern Trust FedEx Cup playoff opener. The top 125 golfers from the regular season will compete at the Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City. Only the top 70 will advance to the second of three events.
A PGA Tour official said, “there are limitations as to where betting information may be displayed.” If you are looking for traditional “retail” sports betting, New Jersey law only allows it at the state’s three racetracks or its nine Atlantic City casinos.
Those who want to wager can download sports betting app on their smartphone, make a deposit and make their wager.
Before a decade, there were times when fans could not even bring their phones onto a Tour event golf course. That is not true anymore, so let the wagering begin.
