This was not from the top of my head but:

* Equestrian endurance racing: https://www.fei.org/endurance/rankings

* Long-distance sled-dog racing: https://iditarod.com/race/2023/

* NHRA drag racing: https://www.nhra.com/news/2023/final-2023-camping-world-drag...

* Crossword solving: https://crosswordtournament.com/2018/index.htm

* Dog agility: https://www.agilitynow.eu/results/agility-world-championship...

I read that the reason so many fields appear to be male-dominated is just that men have wider variance on almost anything you can measure, so outliers on any metric are more likely to be men.
