Vinesh Phogat Left In The Lurch As WFI Issues New Eligibility Criteria For Asian Games Trials
Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium: Just a few months before the Asian Games, the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) has released new eligibility criteria to participate in the selection trials, effectively shutting the door on veteran Vinesh Phogat, who has been hoping to qualify for the Continental mega event.
As per the new rules decided by WFI, only medal winners from the 2025 and 2026 competitions will be allowed to participate in the selection trials for the Asian Games. This effectively rules out Phogat, who is a Congress MLA in Haryana, as she has not competed in any professional event since her heartbreaking disqualification at the Paris Olympics 2024.
The trials for women wrestlers will be conducted on May 30 at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Delhi, while the men's freestyle and Greco-Roman teams will be picked after trials at SAI RC Lucknow on May 31.
