I guess you could say that with money you have access to better equipment/food/trainers etc. but those aren't really direct and instant results like they are in games so it's a bit of a strech.
Just like with banned substances - none of those things guarantee success.
It's incomparably easier to become the best (or one of the best) in a P2W game or a game with P2W elements than it is to become a pro athlete.
I assure you, the whales are not guaranteed to be "the best" at anything besides deployed GP. Watch Ahnald's stream; he makes mistakes aplenty, and he seems to be one of the more skilled whales (based on his win rate). I'd wager a lot of f2p D2 folks could beat a lot of D1 whales in a GAC matchup.
No analogy is perfect. But there certainly aren't a lot of inner city kids making it in the PGA.
