The applied methodology involves a comparative analysis of top athletes by gender and categories to contrast diversity. Statistical techniques, including ANOVA and regression analysis, are employed to examine the data and derive meaningful insights, finding their remarkable influence beyond their exceptional performance in sports. Results: Sportswomen harness the power of online visibility as a strategical tool to amplify their influence and drive social change, leveraging their talent to go beyond the economic returns of their professional performance.Discussions and findings: The current study discloses how sportspeople serve as role models, exhibiting good practices and leading by example to benefit the community.
