Neeraj Chopra Unhappy Despite Winning Golden Spike Title. Here's Why

Neeraj Chopra may have clinched the Golden Spike title in his maiden appearance at the meet, but the former Olympic champion was far from satisfied with his performance. Chopra's best throw of 85.29m was enough to secure the win in a nine-man field at the World Athletics Continental Tour Gold event here on Tuesday. "I am not that happy with my performance today, but I am very happy with the trophy I won," said Chopra. "I used to watch this meeting a lot as a kid. I watched people like Jan Zelezny and Usain Bolt winning the Golden Spike and I dreamt of winning one as well. Now the dream has come true," the double Olympic-medallist added. Though he led the field, Chopra admitted he fell short of his own expectations, especially in front of a packed crowd. "I know the javelin throw is very popular in Czechia. The amount of support we were getting from the crowd was crazy. I just wish I could have performed better for them," said Chopra, who breached the elusive 90m mark during his second place finish in Doha Diamond League in May. Chopra recorded his winning effort in the third round after opening with a foul and a second throw of 83.45m. He followed up with 82.17m and 81.01m before another foul in the final round. Despite a modest mark by his high standards, the 27-year-old continued his strong form this season, coming off a Diamond League win in Paris just days earlier. His next outing will be at the NC Classic in Bengaluru on July 5, where Anderson Peters and Thomas Rohler are also expected to compete.

Neeraj Chopra triumphs at Ostrava but feels performance fell short

Neeraj Chopra secured the Golden Spike title in his debut appearance at the event, but the former Olympic champion expressed mixed feelings about his performance. Chopra's best throw of 85.29 meters was enough to claim victory in a field of nine competitors at the World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meet on Tuesday. Neeraj pleased with win, not performance 'While I'm pleased to have won the trophy, I'm not entirely satisfied with how I performed today,' Chopra said. 'I used to watch this competition as a youngster, admiring legends like Jan Zelezny and Usain Bolt win the Golden Spike. It was always my dream to achieve the same, and now that dream has come true,' added the two-time Olympic medallist. 'Javelin is hugely popular here in Czechia, and the crowd support was incredible. I just wish I could have delivered a better performance for them,' he admitted. Chopra had crossed the 90-meter mark during his runner-up finish at the Doha Diamond League in May. He secured his winning throw in the third round after opening with a foul and an 83.45m second attempt. Subsequent throws measured 82.17m and 81.01m, followed by another foul in the final round. Despite not hitting his usual marks, the 27-year-old remains in strong form this season, coming off a recent Diamond League victory in Paris. Chopra's next competition will be the NC Classic in Bengaluru on July 5, where he is expected to face rivals Anderson Peters and Thomas Rohler.

'I Am Not That Happy': Neeraj Chopra Admits To Below-Par Performance In Ostrava

Last Updated: Neeraj Chopra won Ostrava Golden Spike with an 85.29m throw, but was not satisfied with his performance, aiming for better results at the World Championship. Double Olympic medallist Neeraj Chopra has said that although he is very happy with his win at the Ostrava Golden Spike event on Tuesday, he isn't very happy with his performance, which saw him manage a throw of 85.29m to bag the title, way below his personal best of 90.23m, that he bagged last month in Doha. While Neeraj finished at the top, South Africa's Douw Smit finished second with an 84.12m throw, while Grenada's Anderson Peters was third with 83.63. Germany's Thomas Rohler finished a surprising seventh with 79.18m in a nine-man field. Neeraj's best throw of 85.29m was enough to bag the victory over his eight opponents at the World Athletics Continental Tour Gold event in Ostrava. 'I am not that happy with my performance today, but I am very happy with the trophy I won. I used to watch this meeting a lot as a kid. I watched people like Jan Zelezny and Usain Bolt winning the Golden Spike, and I dreamt of winning one as well," Neeraj said after the event. Though he led the charts, the two-time Olympic medallist admitted that he fell short of his expectations in front of a packed crowd. 'I know the javelin throw is very popular in Czechia. The amount of support we were getting from the crowd was crazy. I just wish I could have performed better for them," Neeraj said. The two-time Olympic medallist recorded his winning effort in the third round after opening with a foul and a second throw of 83.45m. Neeraj followed up with 82.17m and 81.01m before another foul in the last round. Despite a modest mark by his high standards, he continued his strong form this season, coming off a Diamond League victory in Paris just days earlier. Neeraj's next outing will be at the NC Classic in Bengaluru on Saturday, July 5, where Peters and Rohler are expected to compete as well. Unwilling to put himself under pressure of regular 90m throws, Neeraj had said that he had a good feeling about the Golden Spike Athletics meet in Ostrava as he builds up for his ultimate goal this year, a top finish at the World Championship in Tokyo.
