Star Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat won her second gold medal in the Matteo Pellicone Ranking Series event and reclaimed the top rank in her category in Rome. The 26-year-old World bronze medallist Vinesh blanked Canada’s Diana Mary Helen Weicker 4-0 in the 53kg title clash. She is the only Indian woman wrestler to have qualified for the Tokyo Games.
Vinesh had won a gold medal in Kiev last week and this performance would definitely boost her confidence for the biggest sporting event. She entered the event as world number three but is back to world number one by jumping 14 points.
