The third sentence is correct:
"Selena started playing hockey, her favorite sport, when she was seven because her older sister was a star goalie."
Explanation: "her favorite sport" is an appositive and should be set off with commas; no comma should separate the subject and verb, and no comma is needed before "because" here.
