HIGHLIGHTS | Diamond League 2024: Neeraj Chopra Comes 2nd, Peter Finishes 1st With 90.16 Throw

Check Highlights from Neeraj Chopra's Javelin Throw Event at Lausanne Diamond League 2024.

India's javelin throw star Neeraj Chopra took part in the Lausanne Diamond League 2024 athletics event in Switzerland on Friday and finished second. Anderson Peters came first with a throw of 90.16 meters. Javelin field at the Diamond League was full of stars as the top six ranked in the recent Olympics competed against each other. It was not an easy job for Neeraj to finish first following his groin injury but he still did pretty well. Pakistan's golden boy Arshad Nadeem who won gold medal at the recent Paris Olympics 2024 skipped the meet.
