Neeraj Chopra will look to continue the winning momentum as he takes part in the 64th Ostrava Golden Spike, a World Athletics Continental Tour (Gold level) meeting, on Tuesday (24 June). The two-time Olympic medallist, Neeraj, enters the athletic meet in the Czech Republic after winning the Paris Diamond League leg just a few days back.
The Tokyo Olympics gold medallist, Neeraj, won the Paris Diamond League with a throw of 88.16m, which came in his very first attempt. While he failed to improve it in his subsequent throws, the Indian star athlete will be happy with his first major competition win in 2025.
So far, he has competed in four events in 2025. He started by winning the Potchefstroom Invitational meet in South Africa with a throw of 84.52m. In his second competition of the year in Doha, Neeraj breached the 90m mark for the first time as he scripted a personal best throw of 90.23m. The competition, however, was won by Germany’s Julian Weber, who threw 91.06m.
Weber will not be a part of the Ostrava Golden Spike event, but Neeraj will face tough competition from Thomas Rohler and Anderson Peters.
