Neeraj Chopra illuminated the night sky in Budapest by winning the gold medal in the men’s javelin throw event at the World Athletics Championships.
Neeraj with his historic gold helped India leave a mark in the medals tally as the country finished the championship with just one medal and stood 18th in the table.
A gold in the men’s javelin throw was India’s only medal as Neeraj became the first Indian athlete to become a World Champion.
Neeraj Chopra wants to have fun as he takes on the world again
While Neeraj’s show with the spear was the highlight, the Indian men’s 4x400m relay team scripted a new Asian record while Parul Chaudhary, in the 3000m steeplechase event, broke the national record and went past the entry standard for the Paris Olympics.
While there were some major disappointments, the Indian athletics contingent did give its best in the Championships that were held from August 19-27.
