Isn't that a misplaced apostrophe? Shouldn't that say "sport's", since the category of "sport" is under examination? Or is that a brit thing?

singular "sport" as the category is a Brit thing, and to my US ears it always sounds like a euphemism for sex.

I like the idea of "most ultimate" meaning, as per etymology, "furthest." Thus, the headline writer might be referring to the difficulties of playing ice hockey on liquefying Thule.
