Ritu Phogat — Official Ambassador of Parimatch

Ritu Phogat is one of India’s most inspiring athletes, a woman who redefined what it means to be a fighter. Born into the iconic Phogat family of Haryana, she began wrestling at the age of eight under the guidance of her father, Mahavir Singh Phogat. Her early years were filled with intense training and victories that shaped her into a national champion.
In 2016, she won gold at the Commonwealth Wrestling Championship and followed it with a silver medal at the Under-23 World Championships. Instead of settling, Ritu chose a new challenge and entered the world of mixed martial arts. By joining ONE Championship and training at Evolve MMA in Singapore, she carried the spirit of India into global combat sports.
Her first fight ended in victory within minutes, showcasing the trademark grit that defines her career. Today, she continues her journey toward becoming India’s first female MMA world champion. With Parimatch, she stands as a symbol of strength and self-belief, proving that dedication can break any barrier.

Ritu Phogat dominated the Indian wrestling scene before going international, winning gold and silver at major tournaments. Her achievements made her one of the most sought-after athletes in the Professional Wrestling League.
Leaving wrestling at the peak of her career, Ritu decided to take up MMA, which surprised many but inspired countless people. Her debut at the ONE Championship Age of Dragons tournament in Beijing was a statement of intent and ended in a dominant victory by technical knockout. Since then, she has continued to grow, adding striking and wrestling to her already impressive wrestling base.
The story of Ritu resonates deeply with young Indians, especially women who dream of breaking into professional sports. Her collaboration with Parimatch is a celebration of courage, self-discipline, and the desire to achieve more than anyone expects.
