Formula 1 is the hardest sport to master. Its not just going around in laps 500 times, oh my f'in *** lol.

Every race for them is their life, they are driving around 200 mph and a single mistake their life can be over. Think about it, you have to drive for about 6 hours in a city like Monaco, you need to know the map 110%. I don't know about you, but that would be extremely hard for me, i'll probably lose concentration and end up crashing.

The suit they wear adds three times the weight they already have, so image the heat and humidity they have to race through.

Golf is hard yeah, but when it comes to mind, strength, and skills it definately goes to F1 Racing. I'm not talking about the course thats just a circle shape, i'm talking about course in Monaco, Japan, the courses where there is sharp corners. Anyways, thats just my opinion.

soccer's my choice. it's just such an unpredictable game. you need loads of stamina, energy, speed, teamwork and skill to be good at it but at the same time, luck plays such an important role that at times, a really good soccer team can have the tables turned on them by a not so good team. it's also such a physically taxing and rough game, as rough as american football (rugby) i feel, and if you are playing soccer professionally i really do think that you are putting your body up on the line for all sorts of batterings.

The sport I think might be hard (I've never tried it) is Tennis. Running back and forth, right and left, in addition to hit the ball at a certain strength level, and control.. I also heard that you'd get the highest risk of getting an injury in tennis, so lots of training is needed to avoid the injuries as much as possible

i'd go for water polo. I've been bit till i bled, pinched till i was bruised pretty bad, gotten scratches that have drawn blood, punched in the face numerous times, a black eye, blood lips and since i was a starter, i played about 3/4 of a game w/o a break. theres a lot of training that goes into polo since you have to have strong legs to tread and jump out of the water and strong arms to help with sprinting along with being able to swim decently and you need abs to throw that ball. Plus, you learn how to take a beating while giving one back. Not everyone can swim, which makes waterpolo seem harder to me and you need to be able to swim well so you need a lot of endurance.

I'm pretty athletic but I've never played hockey. Even though I've never played, i think it would probably be the hardest sport. Because you have to learn how to skate first, and that ain't easy.

Yea I would pick hockey as well. You need to know how to skate, then puck handling skills. And even when you have all the skills down, it's very unpredictable. You may get hit by a puck, a player giving you a concussion, or getting cut by a stick. The scariest thing in hockey imo that happened was when berad (sp) almost went blind because of a high stick and i forgot who but the player who got hit in the throat by a slap shot, I know he's a montreal player.

Scariest play in hockey BY FAR is clint malarchuk with the Buffalo Sabres, That guy almost died on ice after a skate cut right through his jugular. If he was on the other side of the rink which was away from the exit. He wouldve died. Its on youtube if you want to see but be warned. Blood is literally leaking out of his neck. A puddle the diameter of 4 feet on the ice.

Sorry not soccer although i love soccer, but actually is not that dangerous and beside is not as dangerous compare to rugby!
Come to think abt it rugby is a man games, to think abt 15 guys playing around wit an oval ball and you need good coordination and especially handling, and almost all of this player do not wear protectives gears except shin guards and head gears( although head gears are wore for certain position). And rugby is the only sport (i think) where they have Blood Bin, where an injured player that needed some stiches or spill some blood and be replaced by another player and get this guys, they can return back in the game if they want too provided that match officials & medical team agrees on his condition but most of the time they do even though they have 20+ stiches on their head ! This is in my opinion the hardest sport that can be and i love rugby and this year the World Cup will be held in France so plenty of rugby to enjoy!

Formula One: well hmmmm, yeah is physically challenging and one small mistake you can die ! But the chances of that happening is low i mean to died on the circuit although injuries are often enough in F1 but is nth compare to NASCAR which in my opinion is the most dangerous among motor racing.

I dont know abt this but is rock climbing a sports?? especially freestyle climbing without ropes to support you if you fall ? And how about Paragliding? last week i read in the newspaper that one woman was caught up btw two hurricane while paragliding in Down Under and was flew up higher than mount everest and she pass out for an hour and was found 300km away from her original known location and get this she was still alive. Sounds fakes but it aint.

i'm sorry,
but it's really a case of a few rotten apples spoil the bunch. Just whenever i happen to flip to fox soccer channel, replays of "fouls" usually reveal somethings along the lines of a tap on the shin-guard, but always seem to have the impact of a two ton meteor. Maybe not all players flop around like sixty year old dingdongs, but from what i can see, it happens MOST of the time. Now i've never played full contact American Football, but I've played full contact sports (I.E. TKD, Lacross). You know what happens when you get rattle snaked from behind in a game of LAX? Pick yourself up and get back in the game. And I HAVE played soccer in HS. They called fouls even when I didn't realized that I had been fouled. And I've never sustained a single injury in soccer. In LAX, I had bruises after every game. Try getting whacked under the ribs with a metal shaft for two hours.
I agree that soccer does require a high level of concentration, skill, agility, and endurance. But take all that stuff required for soccer, add in full contact, and give your defender gigantic sticks to whack you with. That's hard.

both hockey and soccer require a lot of skill and teqnique to be good at. Anyone can shoot a puck but with speed and control it takes a lot of work and time. D:

every sport is hard....... whatever is the hardest to you are the ones that you really don't know how to play much..... and to me that sport is any where it has to do with catching a ball and making a goal xD. I do Mixed Martial arts and Submission grappling

Baseball is the hardest and requires the most skills to play. Mentally and physically. Requires the most concentration out of all sports, if you lose concentration for one second, your out or you'll make a fielding error.

Making contact with 100mph fastballs and hit it into the gap.
Is it a strike or a ball? You have like 1 second to decide.
Should I chase it out of the strikezone?
What is the umpire's strike zone like today?
Breaking balls.
Think like the pitcher.
Decide whether to steal a base or not.
Decide whether you stop at first base or go for the double.
A ball flying at you at 90+mph, you have seconds to react and catch it.
Every single pitcher have different style.
Every batter have different style.
You have to pick up on the pitcher's frequencies or you'll have a bad day.

All kinds of skills are require in baseball.

hockey isn't hard at all. infact learning how to skate is as easy as learning how to drive.

sports that require you to be in top physical condition to handle the impact when playing are the hardest sports. F1, boxing, and possibly mma would be in this category. the training required for these sports are crazy intense and put that together with getting smacked around at g force levels, most people would wish they played golf instead.

after are the ones where daily but less instense training is needed to maintain your stamina, speed, physical power, skills and emotional state. most sports are under this category like soccer, basketball, hockey, football, rugby, swimming, baseball, tennis etc.

obviously 95% of the people are going to back up their own sport. anyways.. the sports i appreciate and give credit to are... rugby, mma, water polo, muay thai (maybe i shouldn't consider muay thai a sport), and football. obviously every sport is going to have different technique, strength, speed/quickness, power requirements. now it just depends what you mean by the hardest? does that mean the hardest to succeed in or the hardest to do mediocre in? statistically, in baseball if you bat a .300 you're an instant millionaire. while in other sports like lacrosse if you score 30% you're losing. i wrestle in a div-1 college, but is that the hardest sport? no, there's always something more difficult.
