The chart shows the proportion of people in a UK survey carried out in three different years who said they were interested in certain sports

Task

The bar chart compares the percentage of people in the UK who liked different sports from 1995 to 2005.

It is clear that walking was the most common choice in the period shown. The interest of UK people in walking, swimming and rugby rose over that time, but the opposite was true for snooker, tennis and golf.

In 1995, over 40% of survey participants said they liked walking, compared to around 30% choosing snooker and tennis. Golf was the least common choice at that time, which was selected by only about 17%.

After 10 years, the percentage of people who were interested in walking increased gradually to around 45% and was still highest. Despite some fluctuations, the figures for swimming and rugby climbed to an equal proportion, at around 27% in 2005. In contrast, snooker and tennis were chosen by a lower percentage, at nearly 23%, and playing golf still attracted the lowest percentage of UK people, at 16% in 2005.
