A sport notorious for guys going undefeated or having very minimal losses. Where there are countless examples of random people off the street and nobody's beating professionals. Are we kidding? That is the opposite of difficulty, it's one of the easiest sports to break into. Shouldn't even be in the top 10.
I would say hitting in baseball, serving in tennis, and scoring a goal in the NHL are the top 3 actual hardest. I think if every aspect is taken into account of a game, tennis is the hardest sport by a landslide.
The nhl being hard to break into I do believe, the teams have like 10 people total. Joking lol.

Thought about this one from the perspective of which one would be the hardest for a reasonably trained amateur to do if he were, say, given 10 tries.
In that case, I think defending the basket against an NBA player driving the hoop would be the up there in terms of difficulty. Maybe not as hard as hitting major league pitching, but probably up there.
Also surviving a round with a heavyweight boxer. I was looking at old footage of Mike Tyson hitting a heavy bag. Holy J-sus. And he's not even the biggest hitter in the sport. I think that's why boxing is so hard also; it's the only sport where the point is to knock someone unconscious and you're supposed to continue fighting unless you are knocked unconscious.
