Explanation:

To improve sentence fluency, we analyze each sentence. Sentence 3 has a misplaced phrase: "such as college athletes" should be rephrased or repositioned for clarity (e.g., "Previously, only amateur players, such as college athletes, were allowed to participate"). Other sentences flow more naturally.

Answer:

sentence 3
