No. It's a competition on the same level as say chess, but it's certainly not a sport, as it lacks the athleticism necessary to be a sport. Also, before you say that the IOC recognises chess as a sport: 1. This is the same IOC who is trying to remove wrestling, one of the original Olympic sports, from the Olympics; 2. Most chess players don't call themselves athletes or what they do 'sport'.
