Vinesh Phogat: Vinesh, you just smile….you have won the heart of the whole of India…your smile is more important to us than that medal, which is soothing the heart of the whole country…when you were disappointed and frustrated after being disqualified before the final in the Olympics, the whole country was sad, because you are a champion for us. You are not one of those who get sad, you are just made to smile. We salute your game and hard work….
At this time, similar feelings are overflowing on social media. The reason is Vinesh Phogat’s return to the country from Paris Olympics 2024. The daughter of the country has returned to India on 17 August. Everyone is happy with her return and is welcoming her with open heart, and why not, Vinesh Phogat has created history by going to the Olympics.
Vinesh became the first and only female wrestler who had secured a place in the final of the 50 kg weight category, but perhaps luck was not on her, so just before the gold medal, her weight came out to be 100 grams more and thus she missed the medal after being disqualified.
The moment of getting disqualified before the final for the gold medal was an unforgettable one for you, it broke you from inside, but seeing the support and love of the country brought back the smile on your face. This is much more important to us than that medal.
Vinesh came out of Delhi airport crying because she was sad about not winning a medal, but as soon as she saw the love of the countrymen, she smiled. Some of her smiling pictures are viral on social media, which are soothing the heart of every sports lover.
Remember Vinesh, you defeated 3 giants in one day
Vinesh smiled… because you fought three fights in a single day on a platform like the Olympics. You won all three, that too against legendary wrestlers… this is a big achievement in itself. It was very difficult for you to cross the first round, because Japan’s Olympic winner and 4-time world champion Yui Susaki was in front of you, whom you defeated by beating her. This was the same Susaki who had not faced a single defeat in 82 matches of her international career. You won everyone’s heart by defeating such a great wrestler 3-2.
You are the real champion
Vinesh, after winning the first round, you also showed your prowess in the quarterfinal match, because in front of you was Ukraine’s number-1 female wrestler Oxana Livach, whom you defeated 7-5 to enter the semifinal. Then in the semifinal, you defeated Cuban wrestler Yusneilis Guzman 5-0 in a one-sided manner. In this way, by defeating 3 legendary wrestlers in a single day, you proved that you are the real champion.
Why did Vinesh not get the medal?
Actually, Vinesh had secured a place in the final of 50 kg freestyle wrestling by playing 3 consecutive matches on 6 August at the Paris Olympics. In this way, one medal was confirmed for her. Her winning the gold was also considered almost certain, because Vinesh was playing well.
The final match was to be held on the night of 7 August, but the weight was found to be 100 grams more that morning. Therefore Vinesh was disqualified. After which Vinesh retired saying, ‘Mother, I lost and wrestling won…’
