Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat’s appeal for an Olympic silver medal, following her disqualification from the women’s 50 kg final in Paris due to a 100-gram weight excess, was dismissed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) expressed shock and vowed to explore legal avenues, arguing the current regulations lack empathy. Phogat, distressed by the ruling, announced her retirement on Instagram, while Sarah Ann Hildebrandt of the U.S. won the gold.
