I'm going to go out on a limb here and point out that while golf* and baseball* are sports and certainly require talent and strength, the level of athletic ability required to play those sports is nowhere near tennis, soccer or basketball. I would bet most of the best tennis players could become solid golfers, but zero of the top golfers could last 5 sets against even a player ranked #200.

*Bowling and curling are also "sports" and if ESPN names any bowlers or curlers in their top 100, they will garner even less respect from me than they already do.

Come at me.
