However after watching much of the Paralympics I think there is going to be a real push for Ellie Simmonds.  So far two golds, a bronze, two world records and one event to go IIRC.  Spin up a hatrick of golds and then she has to be one of the favourites.

Hope you're right, I've got around £10 on her at an average of 600 on Betfair Smiley

She's down to 36 there now, 5th fave behind Wiggins, Farah, Ennis and Murray.  Have you nit-hedged yet?  Wink

wiggins has to be favorite imo but murray winning the usopen could make it very close, winning the olympics usopen and making final at wimbledon in an era with federer/nadal/djokovic is a huge achievement for him and just purely given that it will be later on and fresher in the mind, he may well steal it at the last

farah/ennis/hoy get special mentions but they arent going to win it over wiggins.... although his achievment isnt the greatest in british history it is a hell of a feat to win all the things he has won this year in such a fashion

I virtually never advise greening out.

But.

GREEN OUT NOW!

Haha, I've greened out enough to pay for my pony on Mo @ 12s and the same on Ennis at for a complete freeroll.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

I didn't think Murray could win it, but winning the final in the way he has, who knows.

Murray could now legitimately finish the year as world number 1.

That happens and I'd argue not only does he win it, but he deserves it.

Might be interesting to see when the Olympic Honours are announced. If it's the same time as the others, it will be too late for SPOTY. Perhaps Sir Bradley Wiggins brings it back into the public consciousness?

Between Murray, Wiggins and Farah for 1-2-3 for me and don't see that being broken...

...unless Vicky wins Strictly

Don't you have to have a personality to win SPOTY?

...surely that rules out Murray straight away?
