Overview

• Neeraj Chopra achieved a career milestone by surpassing the 90m mark with a throw of 90.23m at the 2025 Doha Diamond League.
• His throw, which broke his previous personal best of 89.94m set in 2022, placed him among an elite global group of javelin throwers to cross the 90m threshold.
• Germany's Julian Weber edged out Chopra for first place with a 91.06m throw in the final round, leaving Chopra in second position.
• Chopra credited his coach Jan Železný and physio Ishaan Marwaha for their roles in helping him reach this landmark, describing it as 'just the beginning.'
• The achievement removes a longstanding mental hurdle for Chopra as he prepares for upcoming competitions, including the World Championships in Tokyo this September.
