Exciting new sport added to the IMG ARENA live betting streaming and betting data portfolios
IMG ARENA, a leading sports betting service and content hub, has secured a long-term, worldwide live betting streaming and data rights partnership with World Table Tennis (WTT).

Our move into the sport will allow us to significantly enhance the betting interface and boost engagement amongst existing and new fans.”
