Betting giant Entain has revealed the biggest sporting events of 2024, using their global sportsbook to identify which events saw the most bets placed.

The Grand National was the runaway winner but 60 per cent of the top 10 featured matches from the summer’s Euro Championships in Germany.

The NFL, Champions League final and golf’s Masters complete the top 10.

Greg Ferris, managing director of sport at Entain, said: “Watched by hundreds of millions of people worldwide, the Grand National’s popularity and ability to capture the attention of casual bettors remains undisputed, according to our global sportsbook.

“It was the Euros that really captured the imagination of viewers this year though, with England games still proving a huge draw for recreational betting.”

The report by Entain – which owns brands such as bwin, Coral, Ladbrokes, PartyPoker and Sportingbet – shows 82 per cent of stakes placed on the Grand National had a value of £5 or lower, with just 1 per cent of bets exceeding £20.

Other notable events to feature in the top 50 included the Cheltenham Gold Cup (16th), Scottish Grand National (34th) and Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul (36th).
