Neeraj Chopra finishes silver in Poland with an 84.14m jump, once again falling short of Julian Weber from Germany. Hamstring up, but that grit is what will keep the going for longer time India’s javelin man misses in 85m crawl.
A Rainy Day, A Silver Lining
Deep in Poland, enveloped by the dense layer of the grey sky at the post-rain chill in the heart of India, once again Olympics Champion Neeraj Chopra asserted his calibre of greatness on the World. At the Silesian Stadium, 27 years old in action for the illustrious Orlen Janusz Kusociński Memorial javelin showdown; he took the silver with 8 metres and 14 tenths despite not being the engine.
From Struggle to Surge in the Final Round
Chopra was not quite through the gates during the event. With three fouls out of his six so far, it was hard to believe this could be done. Having started 81.28m and 81.80m earlier in his rounds, Neeraj will only delight you in third going into the final throw. Champions never quit, they conquer. He let loose his final javelin in one swift motion flying it 84.14 m to move into second position and hanging on to take silver by a hair.
Julian Weber Outpaces Chopra Again
German Julian Weber, who almost beat Neeraj in Diamond League Doha last week continued winning streak. Commanding throw of 86.12 meters in the second round, Weber again kept Chopra off the summit stand Another Grenadian two-time world champion Anderson Peters was not far behind with 83.24m to repeat the bronze medal he won in Doha.

A Dip in Distance, Not in Determination
This was, for Neeraj Chopra — his first sub-85-metre finish since he won 81.67 at Federation Cup Bhubaneswar in 2024. This is a big difference when you contrast it with his recent 90.23m personal best in Doha just a few weeks ago which broke against his limitations. Weber had still come out on top 91.06 in the end though Weber had beat him by a hair.
