Vinesh Phogat’s appeal for silver in Olympics deferred by CAS to Aug 16

Paris: The Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat has been waiting longer than expected for a resolution to her appeal against her disqualification from the Olympic finals. The ad-hoc division of the Court of Arbitration for Sport has postponed its decision once more, this time until August 16. Because the 29-year-old was 100 grammes overweight on Wednesday of last week, she was disqualified from the women's 50 kg freestyle final.

“The CAS ad hoc division president has allowed Hon. Dr Annabelle Bennett, Sole Arbitrator in the Vinesh Phogat vs. United World Wrestling (UWW) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) matter, an extension until 6-00 p.m. (Paris time) on Friday, August 16, 2024,” a release from the IOA said.

In her appeal, Vinesh has demanded that she be given a joint silver with Cuban wrestler Yusneylis Guzman Lopez, who had lost to her in the semifinals but was promoted to the final following the Indian’s disqualification.
