India’s star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra finally succeeded in crossing the 90 meter barrier this year, but he could not defend his title in the World Championships. Neeraj achieved the standard distance of 90 meters in javelin throw in Doha Diamond League. Neeraj threw his javelin to 90.23 meters and became the third player from Asia and 25th overall to do so. But he also felt disappointed by failing to win a medal in the final of the World Championships in Tokyo this year.
