New Delhi. Players who do not fit the rules and regulations of any sport are often excluded from competitions, but have you ever heard of a player being excluded because of her beauty, and that too from a sporting event like the Olympics? Yes, something similar has happened in the ongoing Olympics in Paris where a different ‘game’ is going on. 20-year-old female swimmer Luana Alonso of Paraguay was asked to return to her country from the Olympic Village just because she is very beautiful. The reason given behind this is that Luana Alonso’s beauty was distracting other players.
Immediately after being eliminated from the Paris Olympics, Luana Alonso announced her retirement from swimming. Now various discussions are going on about her retirement. Some media reports are claiming that some players of her country had complained to the officials about Luana’s beauty. According to The Sun’s report, Luana left her team and went to visit Disneyland Paris. Also, she was wearing her own clothes instead of the official kit. Due to this, action was taken against her.
However, later Luana denied this through a social media post and said that she has not been removed from anywhere. Let us tell you that just yesterday, Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified from the Olympics due to her excess weight. Vinesh had reached the final of the women’s 50 kg weight category, but on the day of the final, her weight was found to be 100 grams more and she was disqualified.
