Nowadays, sport people and artists (musicians, singers, movie directers...) are the people living of a kind of leisure who earn the most money. Therefore, I think that on an economic point of view, sports and arts enjoy the same prestige.
As far as culture is concerned, in ancient Greece, the olympic games were an in event as much important than the development of the arts, maybe more.
So sports are able to have the same prestige as the arts, it's just a question of culture, it depends on each country to say if sports "should" have the same prestige as the arts.
