Synopsis
The legal U.S. sports betting industry’s growth accelerated in 2021. According to Morning Consult, more than $52.7 billion was wagered throughout the year. The key driver behind this growth has been legal sports bets launching in 11 states and billions of dollars spent on marketing by gambling operators looking to attract new customers. With several states set to legalize sports betting and demographics under 44 years old making up a majority of the market, this growth should continue.
