is chess a sport?

Yes, it is classified as a sport, and I truly think it is one of the best sports. For someone, it's boring. For me, it's the best sport in terms of developing your strategic and tactical thinking. It will help you also improve your creativity and imagination. I've been playing it since I was a kid as my grandpa insisted that I have to learn this game and know everything about it. Now, my son adores this game as well, and he is even taking the courses at https://www.chessable.com/, and I can tell you he is improving dramatically.
