Most Popular Sports of the Olympic Games

This is the most beautiful sport to watch because there are actual routines planned for it. They are made to look lovely to watch, to show off athletic skill. A lot of Olympic sports are just a game, gymnastics is made to be a thrill to watch on purpose! I can't wait!

With other sports, you can try it out or do it casually like football, basketball, handball, swimming, etc. But you can't even pretend to do gymnastics casually unless you're trained for it. It's intense competition and they do it with grace and ease nonetheless

I'm also a gymnast my self artistic gymnastics is the most watched it is intense, exciting, and a jaw opener it is a hard sport in witch the athletes put the hard work, time, effort, and dedication into.

Gymnastics is the best sport in the world because you have to do a lot of training (most people start at age 2)

When people think of the Olympics they think of athletics. That's why closing and opening ceremonies are always held in the athletics ceremonies. I don't watch the Olympic for football, tennis, cricket etc because the Olympics is not the pinnacle of those sports, that's why the Olympics is all about athletics.

Track and field is no doubt the hardest event in the olympics. People talk more about gymnastics because the gymnasts look ridiculous and act like babies, but the real sport is track and field, minus the discus and hammer throw.

Usain bolt gives it a good name

BECAUSE I LIKE BOLT
AND I AM A RECORD OF 100 METER IN 14 SEC.
WHEN I WILL PLAY OLYMPIC MY RECORD WILL 7SEC

Men love beach volleyball because of the skimpy outfit of the girls. They should wear proper athletic outfits, like the other Olympic athletes not bikinis. It looks unprofessional for the Olympics. It's OK for the beach, perhaps.

Without this ratings would lose a large demographic.

It sucks so bad

Peter kiezyk is a bitch

Only sport that's good in summer, best over all is hockey. I mean really? It's the only sport in the summer olympics that anyone cares about besides the olympics - nmorse88

Great sport. Requires the same amount of training but must keep adrenaline in check in order to aim and focus accurately.

Archery is an amazing sport, and is severely underestimated. I lovethis sport.

Unlike other sports, big money has never tainted or entered the professional badminton arena. Therefore, from beginner to professional it is still a sport played for the sheer love and enjoyment of it. Just look at the immense dedication and extreme fitness levels required - and the height some players get in the jump smash - incredible. Hitting the shuttle at just under 500 kph (over 300 mph) make this the fastest racket sport in the world. And all for the love of the sport and not the money! Played all over the world by ALL age groups Badminton is simply not covered enough by the media - why not? - no big money to be won!

I love watching and playing badminton. Even when it's not professional and I'm watching the little kids at practice play it's so fun to watch

" gets you so hyped up and pumped and is way faster than tennis"

This sport is developing so fast
