He started with a foul, before the big throw in his 2nd attempt. With the men's and women's javelin throw event happening simultaneously, Neeraj Chopra had to wait quite a bit before his trophy could be confirmed.
Olympic silver medalist Jakub Vadlejch of the Czech Republic finished on 2nd place with a best javlin throw of 86.94m. Rounding off the podium places was Julian Weber of Germany, with a best javlin throw of 83.73m.
Neeraj Chopra had started his 2022 season late, after nearly a year out post the Olympics.
