Sports Personality of the Year: Fury the early favourite for 2020

The BBC’s Sports Personality of the Year is awarded every December and always makes for a fascinating betting event. In 2020 Lewis Hamilton took the award but that wasn’t the whole story, as Tyson Fury was the favourite for months and Ronnie O’Sullivan was in contention. In 2021, there should be plenty of contenders from across the sporting spectrum with the rescheduled Olympics, Euro 2020 and Ryder Cup all set to take place.
