England's success at the European Championship has seen their captain be added to the betting odds for the SPOTY award.
Leah Williamson has been England captain since September 2021 and her captaincy was vital in England's tournament win.

Ronnie O'Sullivan is now out to 14/1 to win the award with bookmakers after his World Snooker Championship win back in May.

Beth Mead's performances at the European Championship this Summer though has seen O'Sullivan's odds drift further and further in the last few weeks.
