The Suns will be establishing a "6,300 square foot sportsbook within Phoenix Suns Arena in the coming months." The Coyotes and D-backs "had representatives at Thursday’s signing ceremony." Coyotes President & CEO Xavier Gutierrez said that he "expects changes to Gila River Arena" ( CRONKITE NEWS, 4/15). These amendments to the existing compact "grant specific organizations and groups sports betting permits to create sportsbooks in their particular venue." Ten licenses "will be granted to sports organizations to open these books in or near their sporting facilities." Sports organizations "wasted no time in setting up a timetable for their sportsbooks." The PGA Tour and DraftKings announced a partnership with TPC Scottsdale to "implement mobile sports gambling and a premium sportsbook for the Waste Management Phoenix Open golf tournament." Even prior to the bill signing, the Suns had negotiated a partnership with FanDuel to become the official sportsbook and daily fantasy partner of the team. Doug Ducey on Thursday signed House Bill 2772, "legalizing daily sports fantasy and sports betting" in the state, according to Jake Santo of CRONKITE NEWS.
