Greenwood Racing, Inc., parent company of the Parx Casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, has launched sports betting at its South Philadelphia Turf Club.
After two days of testing, Greenwood was to launch its live sports book on Thursday following a $1 million renovation of an existing bar. The Turf Club book features seven live tellers, nine betting kiosks and new TV monitor.
The book will offer competition to its former partner in South Philadelphia, Cordish Companies, which is opening the Live! casino hotel in the district that is home to Philadelphia’s sports stadiums. Greenwood opened a temporary sports book at Parx on January 8.
