Polymarket sports markets
Sports on Polymarket is a calendar of named events — tournament winners, award races, fight nights — each packed into a yes/no book. Unlike a sportsbook moneyline, the contract is a share that pays a dollar if the named outcome happens. This page ranks the largest open sports markets by volume and flags weekly movers so you can see which series absorbed attention, not which side a model likes. Championship futures often dwarf one-off games; that skew is the point of a volume-first hub. Pair a row with the live movers board and the market page’s recent fills. Polydata never places the bet: research desks only.
As of Oct 7, 2026, the 20 largest open Sports books on Polymarket total $104.00M lifetime volume.
Largest open sports books
Ranked by lifetime volume on the Polydata screener (open books). Yes% is the first outcome price when present. List filled from the category screener filter because the default volume page had few tagged rows.
Weekly movers (7d implied Yes)
Liquid open books with a usable reference fill. Δ is percentage points of implied Yes, not a trade signal.
