I came up with a few prodigies, incl an Olympian...the one thing they basically never did was fail. And they were the best in the region for the first 20 years of their lives. I'm sure you gotta adjust after going pro, but I doubt these come more naturally to them than the average person.

Like the whole perk of being the type of prodigy who can go pro is you dust everyone. And they did so by incredible margins, and made it look easy. They seemed superhuman cuz they were. Eventually they all got additional training to hone their talents, but they sure didn't need it against normies.
