Snooker is definitely a sport. People comparing it to chess

Thing is with chess/scrabble/cards etc, if you tell someone else to place your move for you, it's still you playing those games if you get me, because the moves are tactical rather than physical execution or a combination of both, whereas in snooker or even golf, execution and physical skill is required every time, you know to get the ball in the pocket/hole but how many people have the skill to actually execute the move? Doesn't matter how well you know the game or the rules.

Darts is a sport as well.

Funny as fuck if you've ever seen someone try to hit a golf ball from a tee or get a break of 10+ in snooker when they've never played before, can't say there's no physical exertion when you see those amatuerish swings and cue actions

btw realise this thread is old, dgaf. Not touching the eSport thing either.
