Tony McCoy A Firm Favourite in Betting For Sports Personality of the Year

After the final ten contenders for the 2010 Sports Personality of the Year were announced on Monday evening, StanJames.com shortened up the perennial champion jumps jockey and favourite Tony McCoy for the award.

McCoy has had a fantastic 2010. He won the Champion Hurdle on Binocular before fulfilling a lifelong ambition when winning the Grand National at Aintree on Don’t Push It. McCoy has been the subject of much popular support in the run up to the award, which is why StanJames.com make him a 4/6 favourite for the prize. However McCoy should McCoy win Sports Personality of the Year he will not only be battling his rivals, but also history. No jockey has ever won the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award.

Two Ryder Cup golfers fill the next two places in the betting. The man who sunk the winning Ryder Cup putt, Graeme McDowell, and the new world number one golfer Lee Westwood are hoping to round off their year in style by winning the Sports Personality of the Year award.

 

McDowell not only had the final say in the Ryder Cup, but he also had a breakthrough year in 2010 in the major championships by winning the US Open. Westwood had a great year too, finishing second in both the Masters and the Open Championship before becoming, late in the year, the man to break the dominance of Tiger Woods at the top of the world rankings.

The remaining contenders are all available at double-figure odds. The include the heptathlete Jessica Ennis who won the European Championships gold medal during the summer – she is a 14/1 chance – and the world heavyweight boxing champion David Haye who successfully defended his title twice in 2010, most recently when destroying Audley Harrison in three rounds. Haye is 25/1 for the Sports Personality of the Year award.
