Tokyo Olympics | She will end her wait for India’s gold, says the former coach

India has so far won one silver and one bronze at the Tokyo Olympics. India is still waiting for its maiden gold in the Olympics. But former wrestling coach Andrew Cook has said that India’s female wrestler Vinesh Fogat is going to end the wait. Wrestling is one of the most promising sports for India at the Olympics. Fogarty is the star of the show.

Fogarty is also the top seed in the 53 kg freestyle category in wrestling. The Fogarty Olympics, which have been impressive at international championships for the past few years, are expected to keep India’s hopes alive. Fogarty will make her Olympic debut on the 5th of this month. Apart from Fogat, Bajrang Punia is another Indian medal hopeful in the men’s category.

Andrew Cook, an American, coached the Indian wrestling team in 2019. He was instrumental in finding and nurturing young stars such as Anshu Malik and Divya Kakran, and also closely watched Fogat’s performance. Based on this, he predicts that Fogat will become champion in Tokyo.
