"Vinesh Phogat's Historic Victory at Paris Olympics Marred by Disqualification and Health Setback"
Vinesh Phogat, the Indian
professional wrestler, made history on August 6, 2024, with a stunning victory
over defending Olympic and World Champion Yui Susaki at the Paris Olympics.
Phogat's win in the women's 50kg freestyle category was a testament to her
skill and determination, especially after a challenging year marked by
Wrestling Federation protests in 2023.
However, her triumphant moment
was overshadowed by a setback. After a disqualification for being 100 grams
overweight during the weigh-in, Vineesh Phogat fainted due to dehydration and was
hospitalized in Paris. This unfortunate turn of events came just as she prepared
for the final, following her impressive performance in the earlier rounds.
Vineesh Phogat’s emotional win and
subsequent struggles highlight the highs and lows of competitive sports.
Despite the setback, her achievements throughout the tournament have solidified
her place in Indian sports history. The wrestling community and fans rally
around her, celebrating her remarkable victory and offering support as she
navigates this difficult time.
