If you were instantly granted GOAT skills at one sport....

....but could only have the skills for 5 years, which sport would you choose?
Considering nobody would know who you are, which sport could you break into the quickest and try to make some money?
How would you go about convincing the right people that you were pro material quickly?
ETA: college is not an option you have already finished.

Sprinting, if you run world record speed, nobody can tell you you don't

Has to be basketball because you only have to play 1 year at college level. Walk on somewhere, play one year, go play in the nba for 4, take your money and run.

Golf easily. Have 1-2 good years and rack up the endorsements, win Masters and go John Daly route once my 5 years were up

If you got to the majors by the end of your first year, how long would club control last?
If you could land that big 10 year $250 million guaranteed contract before your 5 years ended, then baseball is the easy answer.

Basketball would be easiest to try out for a team and make the squad but wouldn't give you the most money.
Sprinting would be good because it's not hard on the body like football, but 5 years gives you 2 olympics if you spread it out perfectly
Baseball pitcher or Boxer would give me the most money to retire on.

Hockey. It's a prefect 5 year window. And you would be a hero in the US, Canada and Europe.

Basketball. You can get huge endorsement deals with Nike or Addidas right out of college. Then sign a max deal. After that you can sign with the Heat and sit on the bench collecting rings.

The obvious answer is Poker. Win enough money in those 5 years to be set for life, and your kids' lives.
Poker is a sport, they show it on ESPN
ETA: After those 5 years, you can spend all the time you want on the golf course practicing to get better. Since you won't have to work, you could golf 3-4 times a week, pay for a couple of training courses, and get good enough to go pro.
