On August 6, India’s Golden Boy Neeraj Chopra secured his spot in the Men’s Javelin Throw final at the 2024 Olympics. With his first attempt in the qualifying round, Neeraj launched a massive 89.34-meter throw, easily surpassing the 84-meter qualification mark. His throw was the best among all athletes, solidifying his position as a top contender for the gold medal.

Nine athletes secured direct qualification by surpassing the 84-meter mark, while the remaining three entered the 12-man final based on their positions within the top 12. Unfortunately, Kishore Kumar Jena, India’s second athlete in the event, couldn’t qualify for the final, with his best throw at 80.73 meters.

The final of the Javelin Throw event is scheduled for August 8. In Paris, the event will kick off at 8:25 PM, which translates to 11:55 PM Indian time.
