Gambling has a long and complex relationship with sport. Now betting operators are eyeing up the success of women's sports. But what are they doing to keep fans safe?
Gambling has a long and complex relationship with sport. But betting is no longer a man's game. As women's sport grows, many companies are putting big money on its success.
In the last edition of our series looking at women, sport and business, we find out how one football side came back from the brink via a deal with Sweden's main gambling operator, Svenska Spel. We hear how England's victory in the Women's Euros could be a big win for the British betting sector.
But as other sports eye up sponsorship deals, some are calling for tighter controls on how - and to whom - bookmakers can advertise.
