Nah, it's much worse than that... they're young, beautiful people, at the peak of fitness and health, having the best time of their lives yet in serious need of de-stressing due to the competitive nature of the event (yet unable to do drugs and alcohol due to needing to be in top shape and anti-doping regulations), all bunched together in hotels.

Three condoms per person is evidently way too few to contain that.
