Vinesh announced her return from retirement

Vinesh Phogat released a post on Instagram and wrote, ‘People often ask me whether Paris was my last trip? I didn’t have an answer to this question for a long time. For the first time in many years I heaved a sigh of relief. I took some time to understand my workload. The ups and downs of life, the sacrifices, those versions of me that the world has never seen. I still like sports. I still want to compete.

Vinesh further wrote in the post, ‘In the silence I found something which I had forgotten ‘fire never extinguishes’. It was simply buried under tiredness and noise. Discipline, routine, fight… it’s in my system. No matter how far I go, a part of me remains on the mat. So here I am, stepping back into LA28 with a heart that is fearless and a spirit that refuses to bow down. And this time, I am not walking alone, my son is joining my team, my biggest inspiration, will be my little cheerleader on this road to the 2028 Olympics.
