  • She weighted 2 kilos more than allowed the day before, putting her over 50, even almost making it to 53 which would be 2 weight classes over.

    They put her in dehydration, diet, “trash bag” running to get all sweat out, a Sauna in the morning of the weight-in (but she wasn’t sweating anymore), they removed blood from her, and as a last measure, cut her hair.

    She failed.

    She needed IV injections right after the moment of the weight-in by the committee. She then was hospitalized and remains hospitalized. It seems that luckily she is fine.

    Disqualification is there to prevent countries pushing their athletes through these ordeals, which have long-term consequences on their health.
