Characters' favorite Olympic events?

[B.J.]

Just a weird thought that popped into my head while watching the Olympics - what's the favorite event(s) of the various characters? I was able to think of some obvious ones:

Archer - water polo
Boimler - speed walking
Picard - fencing, equestrian events, maybe distance running?
Kirk - equestrian events (from Generations, plus Shatner leaking in), sport climbing
Sisko - if baseball doesn't return as an Olympic sport, I'd say sailing
O'Brien - kayaking
Dax - well, Emony Dax was an actual Olympic gymnast!

Any others y'all can think of that would fit the characters?

 

[Nerys Myk]

Chakotay-Boxing
Reed-Pistol
Kirk- Kirk Fu Judo
Sulu-Fencing
Uhura-Rhythmic Gymnastics

I'm sure that in the 24th century, more sports will have been incorporated into the Olympics.

Riker:
Parrises squares. "One of these days you're going to fall and break your neck."
Or perhaps Anbo-jyutsu. "The ultimate evolution of the martial arts."

Mayweather- Sport Climbing
Sato-Taekwondo

 

[Frontis]

Tom Paris - any kind of race.

Boimler

I feel like the Modern Pentathlon is a good one for Picard, since it incorporates all of your suggestions.

Somehow, I could see Barclay play curling (ok, winter Olympics, but still). I guess it's because that brushing leaves a bit of an ... obsessive impression

(Not trying to insult people who actually play or love to watch the sport).

Data: wins a gold medal in any sport ('my servomotors are rated for walking speeds up to 150 kph'). Except possibly those that require some sense of aesthetics.

Worf and M'Benga - (Klingon) Judo

Do you mean to watch or to play themselves? (After all, Starfleet graduates are apparently such supermen they'd probably just as easily could perform sports on an Olympic level )

Bashir - Tennis (he almost became a professional tennis player according to Distant Voices).
Janeway - Tennis (she played on the highschool team and later tried to pick it up again (Future's End))
Tuvok - Archery (which he taught) and martial arts.

Some that haven't been mentioned...


Harry Kim - hockey (we see him and Tom goimg to Sick Bay with ice skates over their shoulders in "CRITICAL CARE")

Tasha Yar - judo, Parisses Squares

Kira Nerys - Springball (or an Earth equivalent to Bajoran Springball appears to be Racquetball, so I'll go with that, too)
