individual sports
Compete by yourself
Individual sports are athletic activities in which competitors participate alone rather than as part of a team: tennis, golf, swimming, gymnastics, boxing.
The term distinguishes these from team sports like basketball or soccer.
Some individual sports involve direct competition against an opponent singles tennis, while others measure performance against a standard or clock marathon running.
