Emma Raducanu Cut To 1/20 To Win BBC Sports Personality Of The Year

Tennis star Raducanu made history earlier this year when she won the women’s US Open singles title.

That has made her the clear 1/20 favourite to win the BBC gong with Coral, after Lewis Hamilton was beaten to the Formula 1 world title by Max Verstappen at the weekend.

"Emma Raducanu is the overwhelming favourite in our betting,” Coral's Harry Aitkenhead told FreeTips.com.

“[She is] the stand out star of British sport for her sensational US Open triumph which will live long in the memory.

Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley is second favourite at 12/1, followed by world heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury at 20/1.

Coral are offering a betting market without Raducanu, making Daley the favourite in that at 4/9.

1/20 Emma Raducanu, 12/1 Tom Daley, 20/1 Tyson Fury, 66/1 Adam Peaty, 100/1 Raheem Sterling, 150/1 Sarah Storey

4/9 Tom Daley, 7/2 Tyson Fury, 6/1 Adam Peaty, 25/1 Raheem Sterling, 40/1 Sarah Storey
