As an expert in the field of sports and the Olympic Games, I can provide you with an informed response to your question regarding the status of chess as an Olympic sport. Chess and Bridge are among 26 sports that have applied for inclusion in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. However, it's important to note that the process for inclusion is quite rigorous and involves several steps. The Additional Event Programme Panel will determine a shortlist to be announced on June 22, with a final decision made by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in August the following year. Historically, the chances of a mind sport like chess being admitted to the Olympics have been low, and as of my last update, chess is not currently recognized as an Olympic sport.
