Paris Olympics silver medalist javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra stated that he was fully positive competing against Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem and believed that he could have broken the gold medalist’s Olympic record but somehow “his body didn’t allow.”

Chopra, who came into the final as the favourite with a brilliant effort of 89.34m in the



qualifying, threw the javelin to 89.45m, his second-best ever effort, a clear improvement on the 87.58m that bagged him the gold medal in Tokyo. But that did not prove enough for the reigning World Champion and Diamond League final winner as Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem, his good friend in the sport, upstaged him by setting the Olympic record to win the gold medal with a monster heave of 92.97m.
