The suspense of Court of Arbitration for Sport's decision on Vinesh Phogat's appeal for Olympic silver deferred continues. Earlier, it was said that the verdict would come by Saturday, 9:30PM IST. But it has now been deferred. In a fresh statement, it has been said that the the 'decision' will be 'issued' by Sunday (August 11). The 'reasoned order' will be issued at a later date. Vinesh Phogat had appealed in the CAS against her disqualification from the women's 50kg free-style final of the Olympic Games for being 100 gram overweight.
All too familiar with the pain of being disqualified over a few extra grams, Japanese Olympic champion Rei Higuchi offered his support to Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who was debarred from her final in the Paris Games for being 100gm above the prescribed limit. Higuchi, the gold-medallist in men's 57kg freestyle event, was eliminated from the qualifiers of the Tokyo Olympics three years ago for being overweight by just 50gm. He eventually even lost a playoff bout and could not compete in his home Olympics despite being highly rated even at that time.
PARIS : After days of near-starvation in their single-minded pursuit of Olympic glory, it is finally time for some sweet indulgence for the wrestlers who medalled in Paris.
SAINT QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France : Britain's Jack Carlin will hope to land his third medal of the Olympics in Sunday's keirin in what could turn out to be a feisty battle after he was accused of playing "rugby on wheels".
