That according to a recently published study by German Sports University Cologne. The “Breaking Barriers: Assessing Women’s Sports, Betting, and Integrity Challenges” study, commissioned by European gaming giants Entain, Flutter Entertainment and Stats Perform along with the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA), All-In Diversity Project (AIDP), is the first to examine the attributes of the women’s sports wagering market as well as “potential vulnerability of women’s sports to match-fixing.”

Entain owns half of BetMGM while Flutter controls 95% of FanDuel — the largest online sportsbook operator in the US.
