What counts

The market resolves based on who takes second place in the men's 2026 Ballon d'Or ranking. If players tie for second, France Football or UEFA breaks the tie alphabetically by name. Readers often mistake the October 26 ceremony date as the final deadline, but the official ranking must be published by December 31, 2026.

Written from Polymarket's resolution rules by the same model that writes our headlines. The rules on Polymarket are what decides it.
