The painful loss of wrestler Vinesh Phogat from the Paris Olympics 2024 moved everyone in India. Vinesh, who competed in the women’s 50kg freestyle wrestling final, was disqualified for being 100 grammes overweight. Vinesh announced the end of her international wrestling career the day after she was disqualified, stating that she no longer had the strength to continue. During this pandemonium, the Indian grappler filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport, appealing her disqualification from the medal event.
