Sports markets dominate Polymarket's resolution volume and currently resolve at 58.2 min median from first proposal. They are also where nearly all disputes happen: contested endings and stat corrections make sports the category where the oracle's verification window earns its keep. If you bet game markets, the practical wait is this row plus however long the league takes to make the result official, which happens before the onchain clock starts.
