I never even thought of archery or fencing or chess or lawn darts or whatever when I said sport. But that's how far you had to go to find one. Good for you. Get back to me when the Annaka beats Tiger or a WNBA team beats the Lakers. Annaka is playing well and some male feminists here are trying to parlay it into a gender neutral society.

Fencing and equestrian (the two that I brought up) are Olympic sports. I can't help it if they don't meet your narrow-minded definitions.

You're comparing apples and oranges. Annika is one player. A WNBA team is what, 12 players? We're not talking about the average team kicking the crap out of the Lakers, who if I'm not mistaken, are championship-caliber.

We're talking about the top female player merely holding her own with some of the best male players.

I don't think anyone said she would eat Tiger's lunch.

I think women win a lot of spelling bees too. Not sure if any are named Annika though.
