SkyBet have also trimmed Murray from 4/1 to 5/2, and the firm clearly think that a Grand Slam success would put the tennis ace in a commanding position for the award, even in a World Cup year. SkyBet’s Helen Jacobs told bettingpro: "Given that a British male hasn’t won a Grand Slam since Fred Perry in the Thirties, if Murray wins at Melbourne Park, he is sure to go odds-on for Sports Personality of the Year." The firm have also dropped Wayne Rooney’s odds from 7/1 to 6/1, following his four goal blitz of Hull City at the weekend.
