Indian wrestler finalist Panghal made her debut in the women’s 53 kg category at the Paris Olympics 2024 at the Champ-de-Mars Arena. Two-time junior world champion and world medalist finalist Panghal is the youngest Indian wrestler in this Olympic edition. But she is out of the Olympics after losing her very first match. Last year, Panghal won the bronze medal at the World Championships and secured the Paris 2024 Olympic quota for India in the women’s 53 kg category.
A crushing defeat of the final Panghals
For the final panghal, his first Olympics has been nothing short of a nightmare. He suffered a 0-10 loss against a Turkish wrestler. After the exit of wrestler Vinesh Phogat, Indian fans had high expectations from the finale Panghal. The latter’s recent performance was also very good, but she could not repeat her performance at the Olympics.
A bad day for India in wrestling
Today has been a very bad day for India in wrestling. Wrestler Vinesh Phogat was going to play his final match today. But before the finals of the 50 kg wrestling category, Vinesh Phogat was found to be 100 grams overweight, due to which he was disqualified. Now one of the big contenders for the medal has also been eliminated, which is two big shocks back to back for the Indian fans.
