Is there any way to create DataBase and Table in Amazon Athena using CloudFormation. I referred to AWS documentation and there seems to be only one resource which can be created using CloudFormation.
Ref :

I think its possible with (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/AWS_Athena.html) AWS::Athena::WorkGroup & AWS::Athena::NamedQuery
**NamesQuery - where you will provide your SQL/DDL to create the table.
Example from AWS

It is now possible to create Athena Table in CloudFormation through the Glue Data Catalog: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-glue-table.html
