Statements: All good athletes win. All good athletes eat well.
Conclusions:
- All those who eat well are good athletes.
- All those who win eat well.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Since the middle term 'good athletes' is distributed twice in the premises, the conclusion must be particular and should not contain the middle term. So it follows that 'Some of those who win, eat well'.

Here 2 conditions.
Good athletes inner circle.
But.
Can't say which is the outermost circle. Can eat well or win.
Hence neither conclusion follows.

1) Win - outer circle, good athletes - inner circle.
2) Eatwell - outer circle, good athletes inner circle. I think it is possible venn diagram according to the statements.

All good athletes win doesn't mean all people who win are good athletes.
You can have a contest where none of the athletes is good Athletes.
If none of the athletes is good athletes than the athlete who wins will not be a good athlete.
If it is possible that a winner is not always a good athlete and we do not have information about athletes who are not good then it is possible a winning athlete may not eat well.
If all good athletes eat well does not preclude that athletes who are not good can also eat well.
If an athlete who isn't a good athlete can eat well and those athletes don't always win than not all athletes who eat well will be winning athletes.
The answer is D.
