DraftKings CEO says operator is level with FanDuel in US sports betting
DraftKings chief executive Jason Robins said the operator was roughly level with FanDuel for US sports betting in the third quarter. DraftKings reported $13.9bn in sports consumer volume, including sportsbook and prediction-market activity, while Flutter reported about $12bn in US sportsbook handle; Citizens analysts put DraftKings ahead across 13 states and Washington, DC, in September, with 37.4% handle share against FanDuel’s 34.2%.
The figures offer operators and investors competing measures of DraftKings’ and FanDuel’s US market positions.
