Budapest, Hungary – World Athletics Vice President Adille Sumariwalla has voiced his strong support for India’s star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra ahead of the upcoming World Athletics Championships. Sumariwalla lauded Chopra’s consistent ability to perform under pressure, dubbing him India’s “golden arm” and emphasizing his impressive mental strength and technical prowess.
Neeraj Chopra, the gold medalist from the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, is regarded as one of the leading contenders in the men’s javelin event scheduled in Budapest this month. Sumariwalla, also a key figure in Indian athletics administration, expressed confidence that Chopra will represent India with distinction on the global stage.
During a press conference, Sumariwalla stated, “Neeraj has this unique quality where he really performs when he has to perform.” He added, “His training, focus, and determination make him a serious medal candidate. We believe he will deliver another spectacular performance this year.“
Chopra’s preparation for the championships has been closely watched by sports enthusiasts across India. After participating in a series of competitions leading up to the event, Chopra’s recent throws indicate he’s reaching peak form. His personal best throw of 89.94 meters, achieved in 2022, underscores his status as a formidable opponent in any tournament.
The World Athletics Championships is one of the most prestigious events in the athletics calendar, featuring elite javelin throwers from around the globe. For Chopra, the championship presents a chance to reinforce his stature as one of the world’s best and to claim a major title outside of the Olympics.
Social media fans have expressed great enthusiasm and confidence in Chopra’s abilities, hoping for him to secure another historic medal and further elevate India’s presence in international track and field events. In recent global competitions, Chopra has consistently reached the finals and challenged the reigning champions.
The upcoming performance of Neeraj Chopra is critical not only for his own career but also for India’s ambitions in international athletics. Sumariwalla’s endorsement adds a significant layer of motivation as Chopra prepares to take center stage in Hungary.
