Golf is way way too low.

Nah, this is too generous. Golf is little more than a game.

Pointless to compare, but I think they got #1 right

Tennis is way too high

It's different for each person. Some are just born with better coordination, or

Golf is way harder than basketball

This isnt right at all

I don’t even know how you begin to rank these. Or what “hardest” means.

Without definitions the debate and list is useless

Soccer is harder than rugby?

Courtimedes

Hey, acting is a very difficult skill that takes years to master

BYUCLA

6/5/23 4:53pm

Much more skill involved and the list doesn't put an emphasis on strength.

Which sport could you start playing at age 20 or even 15 and have a

Baseball/softball lumped together...lol. Two completely different sports. Both

I disagree that half of those are even sports.

Sports is not the same as athletic competition.

If a winner is determined by a judge, it isn't a sport, it's a competition.

Difficulty in skill and difficulty in athletic ability are 2 very different

cougaman

6/5/23 5:00pm

Racquetball for example is very difficult in skill. Athletic ability certainly

Middle distance is harder than distance or sprints. It’s basically sprinting+.

DwigtA2RM

Everyone’s own sport will always be the “hardest”

GlutealGuy

6/5/23 5:02pm

Boxing is a good #1. Football is way too high at #3

Here is a way I might describe hard and easy:

That would place baseball high, always fun when other athletes tried BP

GlutealGuy

6/5/23 5:21pm

Right. But baseball isn't just hitting. That's only part of it.

crack

6/5/23 5:23pm

Put them on the hot corner, not too many athletes would stop anything there

GlutealGuy

6/5/23 5:42pm

Probably true. But you can say that about certain aspects of all those sports

crack

6/5/23 5:51pm

Again, it’s really whatever sport you played there will be a bias

GlutealGuy

6/5/23 5:59pm

This definitely benefits the 'toughness' sports.

I like the bottom lists cuz I am good at them.

The avg. person cannot pole vault or ride a bull without significant training.

This is clearly true.
