Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh: In the lead-up to the Paris Olympic Games, India's two-time Olympian Vinesh Phogat won the gold medal in the women's 50kg category in the Grand Prix of Spain international continental wrestling championship here on Saturday. Vinesh defeated Mariia Tiumerekova -- former Russian grappler now competing as an Individual Neutral Athlete -- 10-5 in the final encounter to bag the yellow metal.
The 29-year-old Vinesh, who had reached Madrid after making a last-minute appeal to get her Spanish Visa which was delayed and got it only a few hours before her departure, won three bouts without much difficulty to storm into the final.
Vinesh, who participated in the Tokyo Olympic Games in the women's 53kg, started the day with a Round 1 win against Yusneylis Guzman, a Pan-American and Central American championships winner from Cuba. Vinesh got the better of the Cuban wrestler 12-4 on points.
