I said this when this was just a text post, but I mostly attribute it to two things:
1) Anime sports, when well animated, is much cooler to watch than real sports. The most you'll get in real sports is a slow-motion replay - in good sports anime, you get amazing shots, slow motion, close ups, and of course swoopy lines and sparkles and occasionally explosions. You don't get that watching Wimbledon.
2) Though the hockey RPF writers are determined to prove me wrong, I don't think audiences can get emotionally attached to real players as to fictional players. In anime, we get lots of insight on players' backstories and inner lives, what they're thinking mid-match, how they feel (regardless of what they tell anyone else). In real sports, you can get a little blurb about where a player was born and went to school, their professional history, and their favourite ice-cream flavour. That's about it, as far as I know.
