Cross-Border Sports Tourism Cooperation under the Open World Economy: Current Situation and Optimization Path

Abstract

As a new form of tourism, cross-border sports tourism has gradually become an important engine driving the integration of the global tourism and sports industries, particularly in the context of the accelerated development of an open world economy and increasing international exchanges. By combining elements of sports competition, fitness, leisure, and cultural tourism, it promotes resource sharing and tourist flow between different countries and regions. However, cross-border sports tourism cooperation still faces many challenges, such as cultural differences, underdeveloped infrastructure, and complex policy environments. This study analyzes the current status of cross-border sports tourism cooperation and proposes innovative cooperation models, infrastructure development, and cultural exchange optimization paths. The aim is to provide feasible strategies for future cross-border sports tourism cooperation and envision its future development trends. Digital transformation, sustainable development, and policy innovation will become key driving forces for cross-border sports tourism cooperation. The research results provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the sustainable development of cross-border sports tourism in the context of building an open world economy.
