'Mental issues' when applied to sport, as opposed to physical or technical issues

is - I would say - entirely normal, standard phrasing to describe a hugely important contributory factor to sporting performance. It relates to focus, application, desire and other related traits.

While knowing the importance of using language very carefully, this is established terminology and is attributed to sportspeople all the time without offence or even the slightest suggestion of it being related to mental health.
