Neeraj Chopra mother reply

Neeraj Chopra, the shining star of Indian athletics, has now etched his name as a world champion. A historic moment occurred late on Sunday night at the National Athletics Complex in Budapest. Chopra’s javelin flew through the air and touched down at an incredible distance of 88.17 meters on his second try.

Chopra was without a doubt the favorite going into the World Championship final. He qualified with just one try after launching a season-best throw of 88.77 meters during the qualification round. As the qualifying standard for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris is 85.50 meters, this throw also guaranteed him that spot. In the ranks of the competition, Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem claimed the second position, trailing behind Neeraj Chopra.
