Competitive Sports: Skills vs. Luck (part 2)

If I were to classify the sports I'm familiar with in terms of their difficulty, their amount of good luck they demand (or the bad luck that plague them) I'd probably have to resort to some graphic representation.

It's always hard to measure things that are dissimilar and bring every thing to a comparable level. Suffice to say that when I compared running, skiing, mountain-biking and golfing, it came clear that the simpler sport (running) was the least affected by sheer luck. So if you've got little patience for uncertainty, keep on running!
