Wrestler Vinesh Phogat Disqualified: Shocking Inside Info Revealed By Indian Olympic Association
Vinesh Phogat, Indian wrestler, has been disqualified from the Paris Olympics after failing to make weight for her 50kg gold medal bout.
Despite overnight efforts, she was slightly over the limit, resulting in her ineligibility for any medal.
This marks a heartbreaking end to Phogat's historic run, where she became the first Indian woman wrestler to reach an Olympic final after defeating the world number 1.
The American opponent, Sarah Hildebrandt, will now be awarded the gold medal by default.
