Monkey Off His Back: Neeraj Chopra Finally Breaches 90m Mark, Finishes 2nd In Doha Diamond League Meet (ld)
Daimond League YouTube Channel: India’s star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra delivered a stellar performance at the Doha Diamond League, finishing second with a massive throw of 90.23 meters — his first-ever mark beyond the 90-metre barrier. Germany’s Julian Weber clinched the top spot with an impressive throw of 91.06 metres, narrowly edging out Chopra in a high-quality contest.
It turned out to be a magical night for India's golden boy as Chopra achieved something that fans and pundits have been waiting years to witness, breaking the fabled 90-metre barrier in javelin throw, eventually finishing second in the Doha Diamond League meet on Friday.
At the 2025 Doha Diamond League, two-time Olympic medallist Chopra hurled his javelin to a stunning distance of 90.23 meters on his third attempt, instantly taking the lead and electrifying the atmosphere in the stadium. This made him the first Indian javelin thrower to cross the 90m mark in a world-level competition and is also a new National Record for India, as Chopra improved on his existing record of 89.94m set in June 2022 at Stockholm.
