If you say it represents the five continents of the world or something related to the sports, then you have to know something really interesting.
Everyone knows about the planet Venus which was named after the goddess Venus, Roman goddess of love and beauty. She is the mother of cupid, God of love. She was also known for perfection and goddess of Athens.
So for the perfection, the Olympics which was started in Athens was related to Venus. The planet Venus forms a perfect or imperfect pentacle every 8 years. During these 8 years cycle, venus gets as close as much possible to earth by 5 times

ie. When earth completes 8 full rotation around the sun, Venus would have completed 13 rotations by the time.
13 - 8 = 5. (Just for calculation)
Venus creates a perfect pentacle every 8 years. If we circle all the end points of the pentacle we get 5 rings which represents the five Olympic rings.
The date for the celebration of the Olympics was actually determined as the eighth full Moon following the first full Moon after the winter solstice,’ according to Valerie Vaughan of Astro-Mythology.’ When the Greeks created their new calendar called the octaeteris, they broke their eight year period into two four-year periods called Olympiads, hence our modern day Olympics fall every four years.
Therefore, the Olympic rings were designed after the pentagram and related to the full moon.
