The given graph illustrates the proportion of people interested in certain sports in the UK according to a survey conducted in three specific years: 1995, 2000, and 2005.
Overall, during the period, foot was the most popular sport, while golf was the least favored. The percentages of interest in the other four sports—swimming, rugby, snooker, and tennis—fluctuated over the years.
In 1995, foot had the highest percentage of interest at 41%. This figure increased marginally to reach a peak of 44% in 2005. In contrast, the proportion of individuals interested in golf was the lowest, starting at 15% in 1995, fluctuating slightly, and eventually declining to 14% in 2005.
Swimming and rugby followed similar trends. Both sports began with a 23% interest rate in 1995, increased by 5% to 28% in 2000, and then slightly declined to 25% in 2005.
Snooker and tennis were also popular in 1995, with 30% and 28% interest rates, respectively. However, both sports saw a decrease over the period, with snooker dropping to 21% and tennis to 23% by 2005. Interestingly, snooker experienced a slight resurgence, rising to 23% in 2005, while interest in tennis remained stable.
