Is mental strength important for success or is it more important to be strong and fit for success in sport.? Discuss both views and give your opinion

Nowadays people play many sports and a few of them opt for it as a profession. It is always a debatable topic among the people that to be a successful sportsperson, what is ,more important mental health or physical state of a person.

therefore

, it is next to impossible to pick which factor has a more important role to play over the other.
