Surprising everyone, wrestler Vinesh Phogat announced her retirement. She thanked everyone for their support and said that she would remain indebted to everyone. In an emotional social media post, she remembered her mother and wrote that she had lost her courage. Earlier, wrestler Vinesh had appealed to the sports tribunal to jointly award the Olympic silver medal. A decision on her appeal is expected today. However, even before this decision, Vinesh Phogat surprised her crores of fans by announcing her retirement.
Wrestler Vinesh Phogat, while referring to her 24-year career on her ex-handle- @Phogat_Vinesh, wrote, 'Goodbye wrestling 2001-2024.' An emotional 29-year-old wrestler Vinesh remembered her mother and apologized to her, writing, 'Maa, wrestling won over me, I lost. Sorry. Your dream, my courage is broken. I don't have more strength than this now.' Let us tell you that earlier, many personalities from the country's sports and political world, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, had encouraged Vinesh by calling her a champion.
Earlier, according to the news that came late on Wednesday night, at around 5.51 pm local time in Paris, he has appealed to the Court of Arbitration of Sports (CAS) to give him the silver medal. Actually, he made it to the finals by winning three consecutive matches on Tuesday. However, when his weight was measured on Wednesday, it was found to be 100 grams more. After this, he was disqualified. The Court of Arbitration for Sports is also called the Court of Arbitration for Sports.
Earlier on Wednesday, Vinesh appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) against her disqualification from the Olympic final and demanded that she be awarded a joint silver medal. The ad hoc department of the Court of Arbitration for Sports has been set up here to resolve any dispute arising during the 10-day period before the Olympic Games or the opening ceremony, which will hear her appeal in the next few hours.
Vinesh spent a major part of the day at the polyclinic inside the Games Village as the weight loss measures left her dehydrated. These measures included starving, abstaining from fluids and staying up all night to sweat it out. Cuban wrestler Yusnelis Guzman Lopez, who lost to Vinesh in the semi-finals, replaced the Indian in the final, where she lost to Sarah Ann Hildebrandt of the US.
Vinesh is now relying on the sports tribunal to become the joint silver medalist with Lopez. However, the international governing body of wrestling, United World Wrestling, has made it clear that there will be no change in the current rules related to weight.
