Who is favourite to win Sports Personality of the Year?
Keely Hodgkinson leads the race for BBC Sports Personality of the Year as the overwhelming 3/10 favourite with Betway after clinching 800m gold at the Paris Olympics, marking her as Britain’s standout athlete of 2024 and Team GB's only gold medalist in athletics at Paris 2024.
She also broke the national 800m record at the London Diamond League meeting in July 2024 and continues to dominate international athletics at just 22-years-old.
Teenage darts sensation Luke Littler follows at 5/1 with Starsports, having shocked sports fans with his meteoric rise to 4th in the Darts World Rankings.
The 17-year-old recently secured his first major ranking title with a dominant 16-3 victory in the Grand Slam final whilst winning his 10th PDC title in his first professional season, joining legends like Phil Taylor and Michael van Gerwen in achieving this milestone.
The youngster has become the face of darts and has been a huge influence in helping the sports gain wider recognition.
Mark Cavendish, at 25/1 with Starsports, rounds out the favourites, capping his legendary career with a record-breaking Tour de France stage win in Singapore.
