Best Answer

The long time "sport of kings" is thoroughbred horseracing.

Other sports have attempted to co-opt this title, with the only success being that they created misinformation.

Polo was not taken up until the 1800's where the British picked it up from Indians.

Basketball is an American sport, as is American football.

Traditional football, also known as soccer, has never been known as the sport of kings.

The sport of kings is thoroughbred horse-racing.

Polo is not the sport of kings, having only been taken up in the 1800's by British in Inida.

Several monarchs are directly tied to horse racing.
