The only sport where you can sit down, smoke, and drink coffee during the activity. You can beat ur opponent even if you are wearing an evening gown and heelsÂ
What is a sport???..what most people say solving puzzles is a sport then its a sport
Are chess players athletes? đź’¨
Sort:
The brain is a physical organ, so everything is physical. Maybe we should substitute the word "muscular"....as in "requiring muscular exertion" rather than "physical" exertion.Â
Â
You're welcome. (It's all I can contribute to this lofty debate)
chess is an sport.. just not physical.. but its mental sport you know thats what i mean.. but we never said its physcial sport.. its mental but sport.. it does sometimess consists of physcial exertion

There are ZERO physical requirements. There are physical options, but no requirements. The game itself is played entirely in the mind. Which is why some people are able to play with no pieces, no board, no clock.Â
Name a sport where it can be played with no physical accoutrements. Just one. Try playing golf with no clubs, no ball, no golf course, no flag stick, etc. Try just sitting there telling your opponent where you hit it.Â
its waste to argue with those who will never change their opinion.. btw the link will say not me i dont wanna waste more energy on those haters of chess

Darts, pool, shooting, rc racing (is a sport here in sweden)… we have sub categories like precision sport or motor sports for a reason. But that is comming from someone born in a country which recognises chess as a sport and living in another where there is a difference between sports and athletics.

So, did you understand that CooloutAC whom you so happy agreed with, do in fact think that chess is exactly like video game and the physical part which makes chess a sport is fastly making moves? The faster the chess the more it is a sport for him.Â
sometimes you should read a bit more about what people who seems to share you overall opinion actually think.

now again fools/chess haters what have you come up with again?? saying link is fake/those true words of Google?
sure we could say the same thing.. this will never come to an conclusion till the earth gets ended.. literally those who play chess seriously say chess as an sport and those who dont or play video games all day dont know all that.. just hate chess and always try to be against in chess -_- by mentioning your opinions.. i have seen another link (not an link some sort of article) which is true that dont care about those chess haters who dont say chess as an sport.. chess is an sport thats the truth.. its an physical one article in overall not link actually.. sure some people would love to debate (and waste time) like youÂ
I don't think anyone hates that chess is not a sport, they just accept it.Â
Things like poetry, music, literature have been Olympic events. Nothing wrong with including those things, or even chess, in the Olympic Games. But that really has nothing to do with identifying something as a sport. It's not the job of any Olympic committee to determine what is, or is not, a sport.Â
and its not the job of any random boi/girl/man/lady to debate on a fact.. if we declined you could argue tons of hours but its the committee go argue to them they would not listen to anyway? btw who are you to say its not their job mr. unknown (for me) i would support the committee rather than random people lol
So if there was a transgender committee and they told you that you're a man, you'd be ok with that, because it must be a fact?
???? talk on topic not off ... its olympicÂ

Mind sports are a thing though but in those we have quizzes, competitive programming and esports.
No, those are competitions. There is a difference between a sport and a competition.

Well firstly:Â
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_sport
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Mind_Sports_Games
and secondly:Â
for some of us the prime element of a sport is organised competitions with formal rules to win. It could physical but that is not a must. Pretty sure sweden, nordic countries, maybe german and post soviet countries use that type of definition of sport.
on the other hand sport as primarly physical activity and competition is on second place seems more prevalent in anglophone countries.
I'm a chess player and I have run several full marathons, ridden several 200 mile bike rides in one day, and played competitive baseball and softball. Â So I'd say at least some chess players are athletes.Â
