All athletes are made. A camera man named Dan McLaughlin was going to quit his job to be a golfer and he has never golfed before. His goal was to go on the PGA tour. The athletes have to find the sport that they are better at.

I think that elite athletes are made because a baby just cant be coming out of the womb talented. He/She has to work on the mistakes that they are making in order to be a true "Elite Athlete". Aaron Judge wasn't born hitting 500 ft bombs, it took years for him to get that way he is and also a lot of training in the process

athletes are made for example you could think an athlete has no talent but then they could try a sport and be very great at it. LeBron James, Michael Jordan and a lot other NBA players were made for the sport of basketball and many others in different genres of sports the more you practice the better you get at something so in my opinion athletes are made not born.

Athletes are made. I think this because people aren't born ready to play basketball. They are usually influenced by something or somebody. For an example my cousin Bentley is 2 years old and his favorite thing to do is play with his basketball and goal. However he wasn't born to play basketball, he was influenced to play by his parents because they showed him how to play with a basketball.

i think athletes are born because genes have a big role in how a person do things

I think elite athletes are made because you can't just start a sport and be great at it. You have to practice to become great and make a career out of it.

I believe that athletes are made. It does help if your playing basketball and your are born 6'8 but that does not guarantee that you will be great. All the athletes in every sport, even if they were gifted with really good height still have to work everyday to become a great player.

I think athletes are born. Some people are just naturally gifted and good at certain sports. I think the genes have somemthing to do with it. Some people are just born unathletic.

I think athletes are made because as the article stated, this man played golf for 10,000 hours and became really good at it.

Being a star at a sport is dependent on both genetics and training, but mainly on training. You could be bornn with long legs which are good for running and not have to do much training, but if you wanted to do any other sport you have to train as much as anybody else.

Both you can be genetically given athletic genes and you can also obtain them.
