Skateboarding and surfing were among the new sports introduced at the Tokyo Olympics. Why not add esports to the list? It is worth considering adding esports to the Olympics because of its popularity and growth. It’s also important for it to be recognized on a large scale. According to a recent article by “The Economist”, esports is “bigger than football”, and its viewership reached 134 million people worldwide in 2016, with 5.5 billion hours of online video viewed. The potential to engage the young generation is also immense, with many young people flocking to esports tournaments. If esports were recognized, it would attract the attention of more viewers.
