Tennessee is officially the 20th US state or jurisdiction to launch sports betting as the market went live at 12:01 a.m. local time Sunday.
The law authorizing sports betting passed in May 2019. It took state regulators until now to prepare for the launch of legal sportsbooks, but the day is here.
There are four licensed Tennessee online sports betting operators so far:
- BetMGM
- DraftKings Sportsbook
- FanDuel Sportsbook
- Tennessee Action 24/7
Three more operators applied – confirmed to be Churchill Down‘s BetAmerica, William Hill and Wynn by a Tennessee Education Lottery spokesperson – but will not launch this weekend.
