How will the 20-year-old fare against the best of the best? Let's find out.
Good evening! Just a few days after his eyeball-grabbing performance at the Commonwealth Games, Neeraj Chopra is back in action at the Doha Diamond League.
India's Neeraj Chopra will be in action on May 4 in the Doha Diamond League. After wowing audiences in Gold Coast with his performances, where he claimed the Gold Medal by throwing a distance of 86.47m, this will be the first time Neeraj will take the field again.
Neeraj will be competing against the likes of reigning Olympic champion Thomas Rohler of Germany, world champion Johannes Vetter, also of Germany, and world silver-medallist and 2018 Diamond League champion Jakub Vadlejch of Czech Republic. The competition is much tougher than Gold Coast.
Can the 20-year-old do it again? It promises to be an exciting contest. Stay tuned
