Wrestling is a sport played between two players. The players fight unarmed with each other. In wrestling, a player is declared winner when he pins the opponent down. Wrestling is one of the most demanding athletic sports physically and mentally.
Wrestling is one of the events that have been included in the schedule of the modern Summer Games since 1896, held in Athens. Since then, from the very first modern Summer Games wrestling has been held in every Summer Olympics except the 1900 Games and has made a permanent place in the Olympics program. In the Olympic Games, men compete in two disciplines, Greco-Roman and freestyle, while the women's events are in freestyle only.
