Amy Hunt Sets The Pace For BBC SPOTY 2026
Bookmakers are already busy ahead of one of the sporting calendar's most-watched end-of-year events, with BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2026 shaping up to be a genuinely open contest.
Amy Hunt currently sits as the one to catch, priced up at a tight 5/6 with bet365 as the shortlist takes shape.
There's extra reason to pay attention this year too, with bet365 running a series of bet boosts on some of the bigger names in the field.
Harry Kane, Luke Littler and Jude Bellingham have all had their prices improved for a limited time, giving punters a little extra value on three of the sport's most recognisable faces.
BBC Sports Personality Of The Year 2026 Odds
BBC Sports Personality Of The Year 2026 | Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
Amy Hunt | 54.5% | |
Josh Kerr | 23.1% | |
Harry Kane | 16.7% | |
Matt Weston | 9.1% | |
Luke Littler | 5.3% | |
Jude Bellingham | 4.3% | |
Saffie Osborne | 4.3% | |
George Russell | 1.5% | |
Rory McIlroy | 1.5% |
Amy Hunt's 5/6 reflects a standout year, and bookmakers clearly see her as the one with the most ground covered heading into voting.
Josh Kerr's 10/3 keeps him firmly in the conversation as the nearest challenger.
The Rest Of The Field
Matt Weston sits at 10/1, a respectable price for a nominee who's generated plenty of goodwill this year, while Luke Littler drifts out to 18/1 on the standard line.
However, his boosted 20/1 will catch the eye of anyone backing the darts sensation to cap off another big year with a surprise win.
Jude Bellingham and Saffie Osborne are grouped together at 22/1, with Bellingham's boosted 25/1 offering a touch more value for those fancying an outsider from the football world.
