individual sport
One-person athletic contest
An individual sport is one in which athletes compete alone rather than as members of a team: tennis, golf, swimming, gymnastics.
The competitor's success or failure depends entirely on their own performance.
Some individual sports like doubles tennis or relay racing involve partners, but the core distinction from team sports remains: She preferred individual sports where she controlled her own fate.
