Abstract

In sports, athletes strive for greatness in ways that go much beyond their physical attributes. Although unquestionably important components of sports success include strength, speed, and talent, the complex psychological landscape of the human psyche frequently separates the remarkable from the just outstanding. Studies on psychological resiliency in Olympic athletes determine cross-cultural study. SPSS software was utilised to measure the research and produce correlation, descriptive analysis, and ANOVA testing results. The psychology of athletic performance explores the inner workings of the athlete's mind, revealing the intricate web of attitudes, feelings, and actions that significantly impact the player's performance on the field. Athletic performance is a combination of mental toughness, drive, and strategic thinking in addition to physical prowess. The psychological components take on the role of silent orchestrators as athletes pursue win and mastery, moulding the story of victories and setbacks. The majority of the studies established a strong and direct connection between Olympic competitors' psychological resiliency. Sports psychology is a branch of psychology that studies the complex interactions between the mind and body to interpret the psychological and cognitive elements that underlie an athlete's journey.
