It now is a sport and it will be included 2016 Olympics. Personally, I don't think Chess should be a sport.
No, but it is recognised as an olympic sport. The IOC acknowledges chess, so it could theoretically be allowed in to the olympics in the future, but it does not currently feature.
No, chess is not included in the Commonwealth Games.
Because it's not a physical sport. Chess is included in the "Mind Olympiad" and the "Chess Olympiad".
no chess is not an olympic sport *EDIT* However there is a "Mind Olympiad" (games like Rubiks Cube and other Brain Teasers) of which chess is included. There is also a "Chess Olympiad".
