wow. two guys with the same name Vicky ?! why Indian officials don't use the full name ? most Indians in UWW database are listed with just one name making it impossible for people like me to recognize who is who

Vicky chahar is the better known of the two, was earlier wrestling in 92 in seniors......Bronze at Cadet Asian in 2016, Won Senior Asia silver 2019 in China. He has also won Bronze in Junior World Championship 2019 Tallinn Estonia aug, 2022 Asian bronze.... Vicky hooda who is selected for 92 is almost unknown but wrestled well in trials but the opposition was very week...

so the Vicky who won bronze at the Asian Champs couple months ago at 92kg is now moved up to 97kg ? and you have a new Vicky (Vicky Hooda) at 92kg in his international debut ?

 

I'm sure most people will make a mistake recognizing these guys. I won't be among them

The wrestling world championship is an Important championship for india.. Our best Olympic sport...... For me points of interest 

 

1) historically  india has been averaging 1-2 medals per competition.... But in 2019 we were able to get 5 medals ( 4 FS, 1 W) .... This competition will give us a sense of where we stand .......is there a genuine improvement ( in juniors and cadets last 4-5 years there has been a huge improvement, we have been ranking 1/2/3 regularly) 

 

This time our medal chances would be in men freestyle... 

 

free style with ravi kumar ( oly silver medallist) in 57 free, pankaj ( 61 free) - no major senior achievements but defeated rahul aware ( world champ bronze and ravinder dahiya ( u-23 silver) in trials

Bajrang ( 65 free) 3 time world champ medallist, naveen 70 free - (world junior silver) , 74 free- sagar jaglan ( world junior bronze) , 97 free - viky ( world junior bronze) 

 

.... Unfortunately our 86 free deepak ( world champ silver) is injured 🤕... Or he would be a medal prospect.... 

 

In women's free..... 

 

Vinesh 53 ( world champ bronze) , 

 

 

2) will we get a gold medal, we have just one gold around 10 years ago with sushil in 66 Free....

what a terrible first day. nobody in the semifinal we lost 3 close (and winnable) matches. none of our wrestlers look in good shape.  looks like the team title is already gone
