Well done. It takes a while to compile these. Maybe the bold line between the two Olympic columns was meant to be between the WC and Olympic columns?

yeah, unfortunately you often see such things only in retrospect after it is already posted

I don’t understand why you included minority versions like 3x3 basketball or softball. They aren’t in the top10 sports. Rugby for example is x3 times the value of being champion in Field Hockey. Actually it looks like considering ice hockey and field hockey the same sport.

But If you are going to do, there are other varieties of football for example five-a-side (futsal) and beach football.

Also surprised team tennis isn’t in the top10

Below the title on the graphic is the reasining:

" incl. all Olympic formats or high probability to be {Rugby League and T20 Cricket} ] "

But I confess that in this regard I also weighed taking only the main formats and leaving out 3x3 basketball + beach volleyball.

I could imagine to combine field hockey + ice hockey under hockey (so to say as two formats of the sport hockey).

Regarding tennis, there are only team sports in this chart and no individual sports, even if they have team competitions there, its not considered as a team sport.

For the definition of team sports I refer to wikipedia:
