Beach wrestling at the 2019 World Beach Games

Beach wrestling at the 2019 World Beach Games in Doha, Qatar was held on 14 and 15 October 2019.[1] The competitions were held on Katara Beach.

In February 2021, the gold medal won by Pouya Rahmani of Iran (men's +90 kg) and the silver medal won by Mercy Genesis of Nigeria (women's 50 kg) were forfeited due to anti-doping rule violations.[2][3] The Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) subsequently reallocated the medals.[2]
