Is Monopoly a sport?

Yes it is. It's more of a 'mind sport' than a 'physical sport' though.
Anything that is governed by a single body under the same rules is considered a sport.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport
A sport is an organized, competitive, entertaining, and skillful activity requiring commitment, strategy, and fair play, in which a winner can be defined by objective means. Generally speaking, a sport is a game based in physical athleticism. Activities such as board games and card games are sometimes classified as "mind sports," but strictly speaking "sport" by itself refers to some physical activity. Non-competitive activities may also qualify, for example though jogging or playing catch are usually classified as forms of recreation, they may also be informally called "sports" due to their similarity to competitive games.

It's a sport in the broader use of the word, but not in the general use of it.
