Chopra's NR throw enough for gold in 2 of last 4 Olympics
Indian javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra on Friday broke his own national record (NR) by clearing a distance of 87.43m at the Diamond League in Doha. The 87.43-m distance was more than what the gold medalists of 2004 Athens (86.50m) andÂ 2012 London (84.58m) Olympics had managed. Last month, Chopra had become the first Indian to win javelin gold at CWG.
