yes chess is considered a soport for it's competitive,well established property . chess deals with mental excersice rather than physical excersice

Anonymous: In my opinion, It's not a sport. Rather it's a game. Infact US recognises Chess as a game. Sports is any activity that requires physical exertion.

Anonymous: That way, Your answer is wrong. I suppose.

MVB: yes, you are right

MVB: But Olympic committee recognizes it as a sport

dainvincible1: yes...it a sport as it deals with mental excersice rather than physical excersice

Anonymous: According to our word web, "an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment is sports". So your point that "it a sport as it deals with mental excersice rather than physical exercise" contradicts the definition. Rest, I have no clue. If it's okay. I'm sorry to have intervened here :)
