The Most Glamorous Sport?

 You Be the Judge
   Sports are not well covered in MM, so I will offer something short since you may be tired of reading about the Stanley Cup. The following headline was encountered the other day and I wonder what you might think the sport would be that is referred to:  "The Straight-Laced Control Freak Who Conquered the World’s Most Glamorous Sport".  A hint: it is not the one being played for the Stanley Cup. This particular headline was in the Wall Street Journal and it refers to FI - Formula One. Another headline raises the question about the "most glamorous sport" and suggests it is E1 which is electric boat racing: "The F1 of the Seas Returns! Prince Albert of Monaco Presents the Trophy to the Winners of the E1 World Championship (so is this the most glamorous sport in Europe?)" Although the latter headline appears in the Tattler, not the WSJ, I think the photo it presents favours E1 as the winner.

  If you would rather google on about this subject, than watch hockey, other suggestions for most glamorous sports are horse racing, figure skating, polo and even snow polo - "Where else would you see horses galloping on ice at altitude, while wealthy spectators glug Krug champagne?" Personally, based on the photo above, I will vote for Tom and the Prince who do look rather glamorous, don't you think?

The Bonus:

   F1 may be glamorous, but it is also popular:  "The average television audience for a Formula I race is around seventy million people – four times that of the typical N.F.L. game." That quotation is from, Sports News From Elsewhere in MM, where you will also find this one: “American Money Has Discovered Indian Cricket: Billion-dollar investment funds and N.F.L. ownership groups are among those angling for a foothold in the Indian Premier League."
