It was a night that Neeraj Chopra would not like to remember, at least not by the standards that he has set in recent times. In the run up to the World Athletics Championships next month in Tokyo, the two-time Olympic medalist and reigning world champion, Neeraj Chopra, on Thursday (August 28) finished second with a throw of 85.01m at the Diamond League Final, which was held at Zurich’s Letzigrund Stadium. Germany's Julian Weber was in sensational form as he came first with a huge throw of 91.51m. Keshorn Walcott came in at third with a throw of 84.95m. Notably, Neeraj Chopra had three consecutive foul throws.
