Sports should have the same prestige as the arts?

As some arts are performed using physical actions, some sports have the beauty of arts and people are impressed by both of them. I think there are gradations between sport and art as two extremes. For example, ballet is considered an art but it needs to use your body with endurance and muscular and it is usually very sportive. Figure-skating is an Olympic sport but it is played with beautiful music and it is as expressive as dancing. Therefore, it falls right in between sport and art. Like this example, some sports are not just tough but also sophisticated enough to have the same prestige and appreciation as the arts.
