Delhi High Court Seeks WFI Response on Vinesh Phogat's Participation in Wrestling Trials
The Delhi High Court has asked the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) whether it will allow wrestler Vinesh Phogat to participate in the selection trials for the 2026 Senior World Wrestling Championship scheduled for September 14. Phogat has challenged WFI's eligibility rules, citing her maternity break, and sought an early hearing against disciplinary proceedings alleging indiscipline and anti-doping violations during the 2026 Asian Games trials. The court will hear WFI's response on both matters on Thursday.
