Rory McIlroy Tops SPOTY Market After Completing Career Grand Slam
Following his long-awaited victory at The Masters, Rory McIlroy is the clear favourite to win the 2025 BBC Sports Personality of the Year, priced at 8/15 with William Hill.
The win at Augusta finally completed McIlroy’s career Grand Slam, placing him among golf’s greatest-ever names and capturing the kind of narrative that has traditionally carried weight in SPOTY voting.
It’s his most compelling case yet for a trophy he’s never lifted, despite being nominated multiple times.
McIlroy is currently given a 65.2% chance of winning the SPOTY award by UK Betting Sites this year but the market could well change in the coming months.
| 2025 Sports Personality of the Year Winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Rory McIlroy | 8/15 | 65.2% |
| Luke Littler | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Lando Norris | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Jack Draper | 9/1 | 10.0% |
| Leah Williamson | 25/1 | 3.8% |
What the expert says...
Littler & Norris Could Challenge with Summer Success
While McIlroy currently dominates the market, Luke Littler remains a serious contender at 5/1, especially with the World Cup of Darts approaching.
Should he win that title alongside Luke Humphries, expect those odds to tighten significantly.
Lando Norris, now consistently challenging at the front of the Formula 1 grid, is another name to watch.
Priced at 8/1, a breakthrough Drivers’ Championship win would likely push him into SPOTY’s top tier come December.
