Sally Pearson has drifted from $1.30 out to $1.55 with online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au to win Gold in the Women’s 100m hurdles at the London Olympics.
Originally priced at $3.25, any other athlete winning the event is now into $2.40.
“The early money was for Pearson, however there’s now been the same amount wagered on any other athlete winning gold as there has been for Sally to win,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes.
