Women, and particularly young women, tend very heavily to self harm in a not very life threatening way rather than committing suicide. If they do commit suicide, they are almost certain to have committed significant and repeated self harm over a period of time. The notion that a significant number of high achieving (elite athletes) who are typically extremely dedicated to their goals just up and killing themselves for no reason doesn't pass the sniff test. Perhaps the only thing that might make sense is if they were told that they suffered a jab injury that would immediately end their entire careers that they have been working at their entire lives and that they could never say what happened (or that no-one would believe them). Even then, these women would be more likely to self harm rather than actually successfully commit suicide.
