World Athletics Championships: Neeraj Chopra qualified for the final in the first throw, 84.85 away
Indian players appeared in action on the fifth day of the World Athletics Championship 2025 in Tokyo. During this time, India’s star Neeraj Chopra has qualified for the final in his first throw in the Men’s Jeweln throw qualification round.
At the Jewelin throw qualification event, Neeraj Chopra threed 84.85 in his first attempt and qualified for the final. Let me tell you, it was 84.50 for qualifying and the defending champion easily crossed it.
During this time Neeraj is seen in the rhythm. The Indian superstar clash is now expected to be from Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem in the final. Both these athletes have been kept in different groups. The time to write history is near once again on the grounds of Tokyo. At the same time, Neeraj Chopra got a wild card for this event, he is in Group A with Diamond League Champion Germany’s Julian Weber.
Let me tell you that this is the same stadium in Tokyo where Neeraj won the historic gold in the Tokyo Olympics. Nadeem won the gold medal by an incredible throw of 92.97 meters at the Paris Olympics last year. While Neeraj was on a silver medal with a throw of 89.45 meters. If the current champion Neeraj manages to save the title here, he will only become the third athlete in history who has defended the spear throw world title.
Neeraj Chopra is locked in and ready to defend his world athletics championship Crown in Tokyo!
From a 57-day camp in czech republic under legend jan jelezny 🇨🇿 to smashing the 90m mark this year, Neeraj is sharper than ever.
