Paris Olympics 2024: Vinesh Phogat announces retirement from wrestling after disqualification

In a stunning twist that has sent shockwaves through the wrestling world, India's wrestling sensation Vinesh Phogat has announced her retirement from professional wrestling.

The announcement follows her surprising disqualification at the Paris Olympics, signaling the end of a remarkable career for one of India’s top athletes.

The wrestler was close to winning a gold medal in the women's 50kg freestyle wrestling event. However, she was disqualified on Wednesday morning for being 100 grams over the weight limit.

In a social media post, Vinesh Phogat expressed that wrestling ultimately overwhelmed her, draining her of her courage and strength. She began her professional wrestling career in 2001, and 2024 will be marked as the year she ended her journey in the sport.

Earlier, Vinesh appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to challenge her disqualification from the 50kg freestyle final at the Paris Olympics 2024.
She was disqualified for being 100 grams over the weight limit at the weigh-in on Wednesday morning.
