    Wikipedia does call it as a sport in the article due to the international chess competitions that occurred: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess

    You might want to do a word search for 'sport' (ctrl+f) to find the word easily.

    So I guess bingo is now also a sport since they have bingo competitions at senior centers all the time, along with cooking Rolling Eyes

    But I'm sure your arm might start to ache from moving the pieces around after a while ... and pro chess players are deffinitely among the greatest athletes in the world Rolling Eyes
