      You might change your mind if you look at the stories of the few but incredible olympic champions from India. For an example, Mirabai Chanu, who won silver in women's 49kg weightlifting, does not even have a table in her home. Lovlina borgohain, who won bronze in boxing had to borrow a jersey when she played nationals because she didn't have the money to afford one.
      Only few sports require you to be rich. And of course institutional support matters most.

      He could have sit down with all the money he has, but instead he worked hard for this medal. You don't get gold medal with no hard working. Some athletes been trained by their parents since young age to accomplish this achievement others had sponsors for years. You can't deny their achievements because of advantages. Take whatever advantage you got so you can't make excuses when you lose because the only thing that matters is your results.
