Neeraj chopra javelin throw: Neeraj Chopra has suffered defeat in the second championship within 8 days. The amazing thing is that in an interval of about a week, he has to beat in front of the same athlete 2 times. Januj Kusochinski Memorial Tournament was played on Friday, in which India’s star athlete had to be content from second place. The athlete who defeated him is named Julian Weber, who also defeated Neeraj in the Doha Diamond League a few days ago.

Neeraj Chopra has been throwing spears away from 85 meters continuously, but in the tournament held last Friday, it was also very difficult for him to cover a distance of 85 meters. Neeraj’s first attempt was foul, while in the second attempt, he threw well 81.28 meters away. He also consulted his coach in the middle of the event, despite this, both of his efforts were foul and in the fifth attempt, he covered a distance of 81.40 meters.

Neeraj Chopra had killed his life in the sixth and final attempt, so that he could throw well 84.14 meters away. Neeraj was running third before the final attempt, but the 84.14 meter effort brought him to the second place. Julian Weber of Germany once again proved to be the ‘staunch rival’ of Neeraj Chopra. Weber threw a spear 86.12 meters away in his second attempt, due to which he finished first.

Arshad Nadeem of Pakistan is the athlete who deprived Chopra of the gold medal by throwing a javelin 92.97 meters away in the Paris Olympics. Actually Arshad Nadeem is not a staunch rival of Neeraj, but Julian Weber is getting this title. Julian Weber has defeated the Indian star twice within just 8 days.
