If you hadn’t been following this year’s Strictly Come Dancing and tuned in to watch Tasha Ghouri’s performance on Saturday night, you might be surprised to learn it was only week four.

The former Love Island star continued to impress, securing the top spot on the leaderboard for the third consecutive week after earning a near-perfect score of 39 out of 40 points for her Charleston routine.

Although Tasha is climbing the ranks on betting sites, she still faces a tough challenge in overtaking the current favorite, Chris McCausland.

Tasha, who is a dancer and model born deaf and proudly uses a cochlear implant, has accumulated more points than any other contestant in the series so far.

She has yet to become the bookmakers’ top choice.

Following the weekend’s showing, her odds have shortened from 4/1 late last week to 11/4, making her the second favorite with most UK bookmakers following her recent standout performance.

Comedian Chris McCausland, Strictly Come Dancing‘s first-ever blind contestant, continues to captivate audiences and judges alike with his impressive performances on the dancefloor.

Punters have shown strong support for him, and his odds have shortened significantly to 8/11, making him the clear favorite with William Hill just four weeks into the competition.
