After the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled against the appeal from Vinesh Phogat that she is ineligible to be awarded silver medal, they have now released a detailed 24-page judgement explaining their decision. The CAS stated although that they see no wrongdoing from Vinesh's part and despite the fact that they feel the rules are draconian, the UWW rules state that she had to be eligible for both days and nothing was stated about partial eligibility. They took the decision based on that.┬аVinesh Phogat in Tears As She Returns Home After Her Disqualification From Paris Olympics 2024 (Watch Video).
