Abstract Background and Study Aim With the growing popularity of freestyle wrestling, researchers are increasingly focusing on gender factors that might influence competitive performance and success. The aim of this study is to determine the differences in performance indicators between male and female wrestlers at the 2021 Olympic Games. Material and Methods The study involved 192 athletes, with 96 male and 96 female wrestlers. Match records and video footage from the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games were analyzed for both women’s (n=113) and freestyle (n=114) wrestling. Performance indicators were assessed using an expert evaluation approach. Data was statistically analyzed using licensed Excel spreadsheet software, and categorical data was presented in absolute numbers and percentages. Results From an analysis of the competitive events at the 2021 Olympic Games, 12 primary technicaltactical actions emerged. In the standing position, leg attacks were predominant, executed by male wrestlers 35.8% of the time and by female wrestlers 30.3%. On the ground, male wrestlers favored the gut wrench (7.6%), while females opted for the ankle lace (9.4%). Both male (926 points) and female wrestlers (912 points) garnered roughly equivalent points for their actions. However, males outperformed females in the standing position, scoring 720 points to the females’ 621. Conversely, in ground positions, female wrestlers were more effective, scoring 291 points against the males’ 206. Rule violation deductions were notably fewer for female wrestlers (8 instances) than for their male counterparts (27 instances). Additionally, challenge review stoppages were less frequent for females (7 instances) compared to males (18 instances). Conclusions The study highlights distinct performance indicators in freestyle wrestling between genders. Male wrestlers predominantly act in the standing position (81.7%), whereas female wrestlers lean towards the ground positions (29.3%). In contrast, males account for only 18.3% on the ground. Overall, male wrestlers perform a higher total number of actions (579) than their female counterparts (518). Notably, female wrestlers secure more early victories, constituting 32.7% of all matches, compared to 24.6% by males. These insights can guide coaches in tailoring training programs that cater to these gender-specific nuances.
