PARIS (AP) — India women’s wrestler Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified from the wrestling and will not compete in the gold medal match. Phogat, who stunned four-time world and defending Olympic champion Yui Susaki of Japan on her way to a spot in the 50-kilogram final, has been disqualified after failing to make weight. Susaki had captured gold at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago without losing a point. Phogat would have been the first woman from India to wrestle in a final. Now, she won’t medal. Cuba’s Yusneylis Guzman Lopez, who had lost to Phogat in one of the semifinals, now advances to the final against American Sarah Hildebrandt.
