  Try a more specific xpath and test that you can click anything. For instance, find an element with an id on ebay and see if you are able to click that. If you can, then you know that the problem is with your xpath selector.

Hover to Sports menu using Actions and when menu opens click to the Tennis submenu. To wait for Tennis to be clickable use WebDriverWait:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 5);
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

driver.get("https://www.ebay.com");

WebElement sports = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Sports"));

actions.moveToElement(sports).perform();
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.linkText("Tennis"))).click();

You need to Mouse Hover over the element with text as Sports and wait for the elementToBeClickable() with text as Tennis and you can use the following solution:

• 
  

  Code Block:

  
  
  

  System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe");
  ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
  options.addArguments("start-maximized");
  options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");
  //options.addArguments("disable-infobars");
  WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
  driver.get("https://www.ebay.com/");
  new Actions(driver).moveToElement(new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.linkText("Sports")))).perform();
  new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//a[text()='Sports']//following::div[@class='hl-cat-nav__flyout']//span[text()='Other Categories']//following::ul[1]/li/a[normalize-space()='Tennis']"))).click();
