The double Olympic medalist Neera Chopra will be in Poland on Friday, May 23, just a few days after the first time in her career outperformed 90 meters. Neera is about to compete in Orlen Memorial Janusza Kusocinskiego in Chorzw, a world athletic continental tour.
It will compete for the highest honor next to Julian Weber, because the Indo-German rivalry is ready to continue to follow their exciting duel in Diamond League at the beginning of this month. Neera finally interrupted the long -term barrier of 90 meters Throw in Doha and release its spear 90.23 MV of the starry field. The silver medalist of the Olympic Games in Paris, however, was closely expelled by Weber, who during his last attempt to win with a stunning effort by 91.06 m. For the first time, this meant that the European champion broke even 90 meters.
The former world champion Anderson Peters will also introduce the fields in Chorzw. Grenadian, who won bronze at the Paris Olympic Games, secured third place in Doha with the best throw of 85.64 m.
The local favorite Marcin Krukowski, who boasts the personal best of 89.55 m, will also be among the best jobs on Friday.
When and where to look at Neera Chopra near Orlen Memorial in Poland
The competition of men for Javelin is scheduled to start at 18:15 local time (21:15 ist) on Friday, May 23. There will be no television broadcasting of the event in India, but live streaming will be available at https://sport.tvp.pl.
Neeraj was originally designed to participate in the opening Neer Chopra Classic, world athletics approved by Javelin’s meeting, on Saturday. However, this event was postponed after a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir and subsequent cross -border tension with Pakistan.
As a result, Neera was a late addition to the ORLEN Memorial Janusza Kusocinskiego, one of the longest athletic competitions in Europe.
Thought about his throwing 90 m plus in Doha, Neera said it was as if the weight was raised from his shoulders. He also stressed his goal to maintain consistency and was to repeatedly overcome the 90 -meter brand in the coming months. His partnership with the legendary coach Jan Elezn paid dividends. In fact, Elezn holds a record at the Orlen memorial with a throwing 91.50 m.
“I know I can throw better. And this year I will,” Neera said in Doha. “I wanted to see the way to 90 meters. Now that I saw her I will improve. I was constantly throwing 88, 89. I’m sure I can now throw 90 and beyond now.”
