Vinesh Phogat
The 21-year-old would be India’s face in the 48-kg category and the biggest medal bet from the country’s female contingent in wrestling.
The route to the Olympics for the youngest of the Phogat sisters was comfortable, as she finished with a Gold Medal at the World Wide Qualifier tournament, rolling past 2014 World Championships silver medallist Iwona Matkowska.
Full of confidence, energy and agility, Vinesh is handy on the mat and comes into the Games high on form. Phogat was undefeated in the Pro Wrestling League, winning a majority of her bouts on technical superiority and kept up the good work in the Nationals.
She is coming off a strict training regime and would definitely be one of the Indian athletes the country will be banking their hopes on.
