As part of the deal extension, the PGA Tour and FanDuel will work together to offer odds-based content to golf fans through the Tour’s social media channels including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
Speaking of the contract extension, Norb Gambuzza, PGA TOUR Senior Vice President, Media and Gaming said:

The deal also allows the betting operator to advertise within official PGA Tour media and on the Tour’s partner platforms. Additionally, FanDuel will be allowed to use official Tour video and content to create pre-game and post-game betting shows and programming.

In December, the PGA Tour announced a similar three-year extension that saw BetMGM remain as one of the Tour’s official betting operators.
