To begin with the word "sport" is from old French meaning "leisure". There is evidence to say that China started of the first sport as far back as 4000 BC, but there has been monuments found which include Fishing and Swimming which were found in Egypt which could suggest Egyptian's started it off. Other Egyptian sports included javelin throwing, high jump, and Wrestling and also it has been said that Persian's started it off with polo and jousting. But the most popular country to have been favoured is Greece and also Greeks introduced the Olympics. So in answer to your questions...... No-one knows exactly where sport is from but I would say it is from Greece because of all the evidence but i know there are others who would agree.

Hope this helps and it was what you were after!!
