Gross mobile sports betting wagers in Tennessee increased 20.7% year-on-year to $384.2m (€356.5/£306.6m) in April.
In April, Tennessee sports betting saw a year-on-year rise that was almost identical to the 20.6% recorded in March. However, wagers collected in April were well down on the $473.6m collected in March, which enjoys a busy sports schedule.

In terms of privilege tax from sports betting, the state collected a total of $7.0m. This was up 9.4% compared to last year.
