the difficulty of sports, like the rest of life, is relative.
little leaguers can play baseball, of course. but not against the red sox.

There is no hardest sport.
If there absolutely had to be one, it would probably be hockey because you have to know how to skate on ice flawlessly first. That includes stopping suddenly, knee gliding, skating backwards, spin turns, absorbing body checks, etc. And this isn't even the game itself, just moving around.

100% agree with golf
Pretty much every sport I can be decently good at just by playing. grew up playing soccer, basketball, football, wrestled a couple years, and all of them were relatively easy to pickup and be decent just by being athletic
Golf, ive gone with buddies a couple of time and I feel it would take YEARS to become a decent player

Back to the original question, I think it depends on what position in the different sports.

For instance, people may say being a lineman would be easy. But not if you're lining up against
or
guys who can benchpress your whole body weight with one arm.

having played baseball, football, cross country, track (4x400, any event 400-3200, long jump, 300m hurdles) and basketball. i would say baseball is the easiest and least athletic, football is the most mentally challenging and physically punishing, basketball takes alot of endurance but i would say track is by far the "hardest", specifically the 800m and 300m hurdles.
track in general is very stressful, your all on your own and everyones focus is on you, no team mates to bail you out and the smallest little bit of being off your game is going to show. you usually have several events to run and are forced to watch everyone else either succeeding or failing miserably through out the day, a total mind fuck. i would literally have the shits all day at track meets. track also has the hardest practices, twice a day for 5-6 days a week, just about every practice your running til you cant (alot more challenging than batting practice and football walkthroughs).
as far as the events go
the 400 is an all out dash for me, pure adrenaline, an all out fury of running, especially when it was the 4x400, its always the last race of the night, you have no more events to run and your team is counting on you, the funnest race for me
the 1600 and 3200 were all mental for me, it was about relaxing and hitting your marks lap after lap, having confidence in your training, staying relevant position wise and giving everything you got that last 400
the 800, what a fucking bitch, its the most challenging mix of speed, endurance and heart in one race, by the time your done with the first lap at a fast pace, your completely shot now you have to run an all out lap even faster
the 300 hurdles are alot like the 800 but a little more challenging due the rhythm you have to keep, it's really challenging with the distance involved, a foot misplaced a couple of inches and your eating shit. (its so much more difficult than it sounds) along with all of the running training the hurdle training can be pretty challenging as well...
after running track for few a years the physicality challenge of the other sports wasnt as difficult, but what was somewhat challenging was the ability to make quick decisions like in basketball or football while going full speed and tired.
just my 2 cents, its going to vary person to person...
i wish i would have played tennis and soccer in high school but didnt have the time...
damn you guys got me motivated right now...

I say competing in triathlons is the hardest sport. You literally work your body in any way possible into almost near death. So can say they went swimming, running, and biking all within one event?

I dont consider triathlons or Iron Man to be sports. But rather competitions made up of individual sporting events
I know it's semantics but if those were considered sports I would definitely have to consider the Iron Man to be more difficult than Golf.
But I stand behind saying Golf is the hardest sport to play. And actually it's not the hardest to play, but rather the hardest to be decent at.
