Missing W2G question

I didn't receive a w2g from draftkings and they said they aren't going to send them for a couple of weeks.  If I already know what my winnings are can I enter them without the w2g?

You need other information besides your winnings from the W-2G that must be entered on your tax return.

I tried to get their Federal ID number but they couldn't do it over chat or email, and it's impossible to get them on the phone.  Looks like I'm going to have to wait.  Thank you for the quick response!

There is more information in addition to the EIN. See this W-2G: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw2g.pdf">https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw2g.pdf</a>
