OlyBet held summer golf tournaments in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, with the winners of those tournaments gaining entry into the Open De France Pro-Am – "another way in which OlyBet and the DP World Tour have activated this partnership with a customer-centric focus."

In addition to the DP World Tour, OlyBet also has partnerships in place across Europe with the the Ryder Cup, WSOP, the EuroLeague, and clubs in LaLiga and Serie A. "Ongoing OlyBet sponsorships help to support the success of local sports communities and aspiring athletes," the operator says.
