Sports Personality odds 2025: McIlroy & Norris head Lionesses

With England winning the 2025 Euros, Lando Norris clinching the F1 Championship, and Europe bringing home the Ryder Cup, excitement is as high as ever to see who’ll be crowned as the 2025 Sports Personality of the Year.

2025 Sports Personality of the Year betting odds

Rory McIlroy is currently the favourite with UK betting Sites, having not only played a key part in Europe’s Ryder Cup triumph, but also finally getting his hands on the Masters’ Green Jacket that had eluded him for so long.

Lando Norris’ first F1 drivers championship means he is seen as McIlroy’s main rival for the award, while two England Lionesses – Chloe Kelly and Hannah Hampton – are also among those on the shortlist.
