There are a few ways of going about mapping the most popular sports in the world. On the one hand, we could define the term 'popular' as 'most watched' - in which case we would try to measure the fan base for each type of sport. Another option could be to measure the 'most played' sports in the world - in which case we would have a much more difficult time, as we'd have to somehow determine how many people are playing each sport, on average, per country.
This top 10 list of most popular sports will attempt to come to a conclusion regarding the most viewed sports around the globe, as a function of the number of fans - as estimated through participation and media coverage. This way we can use existing data sets to arrive at the most accurate conclusion.
