Sangeeta began with a crushing defeat by fall but bounced back with a win in her second bout. She lost her semifinal but won the bronze play-off 6-2 against young Hungarian Viktoria Borsos, the U-20 World Championship silver medallist. Sangeeta, who won the National Championship in the 62kg last year, began with a defeat by fall against American Jennifer Page Rogers.<\/p>\n<p>The contest lasted just 80 seconds with the American pulling away with a right leg attack that led to a take-down and multiple rolls. Eventually, the American got herself in a position to pin Sangeeta.<\/p>\n<p>In her next bout against America&#8217;s Brenda Olivia Reyna, the Indian managed to shake off rust and was quick with her movement. She went into the break with a 4-2 lead and kept consolidating to finally win the bout by technical superiority.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"hi\">\u0906\u092a \u0938\u092d\u0940 \u0915\u0947 \u092c\u0927\u093e\u0908 \u0915\u0947 \u0938\u0902\u0926\u0947\u0936 \u092e\u0941\u091d \u0924\u0915 \u092a\u0939\u0941\u0901\u091a \u0930\u0939\u0947 \u0939\u0948\u0902 \u0907\u0938 \u092a\u0932 \u092a\u0930 \u092c\u0939\u0941\u0924 \u092d\u093e\u0935\u0941\u0915 \u0939\u0942\u0901\u0964<\/p>\n<p>\u0906\u092a \u0938\u092d\u0940 \u0915\u093e \u092c\u0939\u0941\u0924 \u092c\u0939\u0941\u0924 \u0936\u0941\u0915\u094d\u0930\u093f\u092f\u093e\u0964 \u092f\u0939 \u092e\u0947\u0921\u0932 \u0938\u093f\u0930\u094d\u092b\u093c \u092e\u0947\u0930\u093e \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u0939\u0948\u0964 \u0938\u092c \u0906\u092a \u0938\u092d\u0940 \u0915\u093e \u092e\u0947\u0921\u0932 \u0939\u0948<\/p>\n<p>\u092e\u0948\u0902 \u0907\u0938 \u092e\u0947\u0921\u0932 \u0915\u094b \u0926\u0941\u0928\u093f\u092f\u093e \u0915\u0940 \u0909\u0928 \u0938\u092d\u0940 \u0938\u0902\u0918\u0930\u094d\u0937\u0936\u0940\u0932 \u092e\u0939\u093f\u0932\u093e\u0913\u0902 \u0915\u094b \u0938\u092e\u0930\u094d\u092a\u093f\u0924 \u0915\u0930\u0924\u0940 \u0939\u0942\u0901 \u091c\u094b \u092e\u0939\u093f\u0932\u093e\u0913\u0902 \u0915\u0947 \u0935\u093f\u0930\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927 \u0939\u0941\u090f \u0905\u092a\u0930\u093e\u0927\u094b\u0902 \u0915\u0947 \u0916\u093c\u093f\u0932\u093e\u092b\u093c \u0938\u0902\u0918\u0930\u094d\u0937\u0930\u0924 \u0939\u0948\u0902\u0964\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FyJnqhaHVZ\">pic.twitter.com\/FyJnqhaHVZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sangeeta Phogat (@sangeeta_phogat) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sangeeta_phogat\/status\/1680266499166961665?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 15, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>One win and one defeat in six-wrestler draw put her in the semifinal against Poland&#8217;s Magdalena Urszula Glodek.<\/p>\n<p>Sangeeta initiated double-leg attacks but lacked power to convert those moves into points.
