India’s ‘Golden Boy’ Neeraj Chopra is now fully fit. His German coach Klaus Bartowitz has said. The Javelin thrower is hoping for another gold medal for India at the Paris Olympics. Naturally, Neeraj’s injury became a concern. But now the news that Neeraj is fully fit has come to the Indian team a big relief. The Paris Olympics are just a few days away. This is good news for Indian sports fans.
Neeraj withdrew from the Ostrava Golden Spike tournament as a precautionary measure due to thigh pain. Neeraj then made a strong comeback at the Pavo Nurmi Games by winning the gold medal with a javelin throw of 85.97m. After that once again Neeraj decided not to play in the Paris Diamond League. Dismissing all concerns, Neeraj’s German coach said that Neeraj is now busy preparing for the Paris Olympics.
Looking at Neeraj Chopra’s fitness, his season has not been perfect. The 26-year-old Neeraj, who created history by winning a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics, is once again the country’s best contender for the top podium spot at the Paris Olympics starting on July 26. The javelin event at the Paris Olympics will begin on August 6 with the qualifying round.
There are still two weeks left for the qualifiers to begin. Bartonitz has been associated with Neeraj for almost five years. Bartonitz said things are now on track. Everything is going according to plan. The thigh injury is not a problem at the moment, she is fine. Hope it stays like this until the Olympics.
India hopes for more medals in Paris Olympics
With two weeks to go before the javelin event at the Olympics, the level of training has been stepped up. None of the top javelin throwers have excelled this season and Bartonitz, as usual, said he would not overestimate Neeraj’s medal chances.
The Olympics have so much at stake and so much pressure that anything can happen. It is difficult to predict medals based on statistics. All the top players are preparing their best. They want to do their best in Paris and win a medal. Like him, we can claim that Neeraj can win.
