Neeraj Chopra, Arshad Nadeem's Highly-Awaited Face-Off Won't Happen In August. Reason Is...

Indian's World Champion and Olympic gold medalist Neeraj Chopra has withdrawn from Silesia Diamond League, scheduled for August 16, with Pakistan's reigning Olympic champion Arshad Nadeem also being absence from the list for the meet to be held in Poland. The meet was expected to be the first clash between the Indian and Pakistani rivals since their Paris Olympics 2024 face-off, where Arshad outclassed Neeraj with a record-breaking throw that earned him a gold medal, while Neeraj had to stay content with silver, as per The high-profile clash, teased by event organisers back in July, was in doubt as Nadeem underwent a surgery in his right calf during last month. The Pakistani star was ruled out of the competition by his coach and does not appear in the list unveiled this week. On the other hand, the reason behind Neeraj's absence is unclear. The Indian superstar has enjoyed a spectacular start to the 2025 season. Chopra took the top honours in the inaugural edition of the Neeraj Chopra Classic, a competition named after him at Sri Kanteerava Outdoor Stadium in Bengaluru last month. The reigning javelin throw champion stood triumphant with 86.18m. Neeraj kickstarted with a win at the Potch Invitational in Potchefstroom, South Africa, in April and followed it up with a very special second-place finish at Doha Diamond League, where he crossed the 90-metre mark for the first time ever, with a throw of 90.23 m. He also went on to secure a second spot in the Janusz Kusocinski Memorial in Poland later that month and resumed his winning ways with back-to-back titles at Paris Diamond League and Ostrava Golden Spike this month, with best efforts of 88.16 m and 85.29 m. Most recently came his NC Classic triumph in front of his home crowd. Neeraj and Nadeem are both aiming to take part in World Athletics Championships scheduled for Tokyo from September 13-21. During the previous edition, Neeraj had finished ahead of Nadeem to win the gold, becoming the first-ever Indian to land a gold at the marquee event. Before the prestigious Tokyo meet, the Lausanne Diamond League on August 20 will be the last major athletics event where Neeraj could get some game time.

Neeraj Chopra Withdraws From Silesia Diamond League, Classic Clash With Arshad Nadeem Cancelled

Last Updated: Neeraj Chopra and Arshad Nadeem have withdrawn from Silesia Diamond League, disappointing fans hoping for an India-Pakistan face-off. In what has come as a major disappointment to athletics enthusiasts, double Olympic medallist Neeraj Chopra and Paris Olympics gold medallist Arshad Nadeem have both withdrawn from the upcoming Silesia Diamond League, thus dashing all hopes of an India-Pakistan face-off. Nadeem is missing the tournament after undergoing surgery on his right calf in July, with his coach confirming he has been ruled out. However, the reason for Neeraj's withdrawal remains unclear. The tournament was scheduled for Saturday, August 16, in Silesia, Poland. Nadeem claimed the Olympic gold with a huge throw of 92.97m, edging out Neeraj, who recorded a best of 89.45m to settle for silver. Neeraj kicked off the 2025 season well, starting with a win at the Potch Invitational in Potchefstroom, South Africa, in April. Neeraj then made history at the Doha Diamond League by finishing second and recording his first-ever throw beyond 90 meters, reaching 90.23m. Most recently, Neeraj claimed a win at the inaugural Neeraj Chopra Classic, held at Sri Kanteerava Outdoor Stadium in Bengaluru, a competition named in his honour. Nadeem was slated to compete at the Neeraj Chopra Classic in Bengaluru in July, but because of border tensions between India and Pakistan in May, he wasn't extended an invitation. Neeraj and Arshad are now gearing up for the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, all set to take place from September 13 to 21. Neeraj is the current javelin World Champion, having bagged the title in 2023 with a throw of 88.17m. Neeraj might feature at the Brussels Diamond League on August 22 as well. Meanwhile, after his historic Paris Olympics win, Nadeem expressed deep frustration over promises made by the Pakistan government that remain unfulfilled. Despite being the first Pakistani athlete to win a gold medal in track and field, Nadeem revealed that he has yet to receive key promised rewards, including land plots announced after his win. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Panchkula's Angad Cheema continues top form, wins PGTI's main tour title in Ahmedabad

Months after he won the Rs 2-crore Kapil Dev Grant Thornton Invitational 2025 at Bengaluru, Panchkula golfer Angad Cheema added another feather in his cap as he won his fourth professional and third PGTI main tour title in Ahmedabad on Friday. Cheema, 35, carded a final round score of two-under-70 and an overall score of 13-under-275 to edge out Noida golfer Amardeep Malik by four shots to win the Rs 1-crore Coal India Open played at Kensville Golf & Country Club in Ahmedabad. The golfer had won the Bengaluru title after the end of the first half of the PGTI calendar. 'Winning back-to-back PGTI titles is a special feeling. It gives me a lot of confidence for this year. I was all about winning and believing in myself this whole week and I am glad that I could win the title here. The course here was playing long as it was raining most of the time. The fairways were also slow and I had to adjust my game accordingly. To win the title here with a four-shot lead will give me a lot of confidence,' shared Cheema while speaking with The Indian Express from Ahmedabad. The Panchkula-based golfer, who had become the All India Amateur Champion by winning the 111th edition of the All India Amateur Golf Championship at Chandigarh Golf Club in 2012, started playing the sport at the age of 13 with his father Brigadier A S Cheema sending him to Army Golf Course at Wellington, a city where he was also posted during that time. In 2011, Cheema was a part of the Indian team that won a bronze medal in the Nomura Cup in Fiji after a gap of 18 years and was also instrumental in helping the Indian team win the SAARC Golf Championship in Jaipur the same year. He had won his first PGTI title as a professional in the form of Dialog Enterprise Invitational on the PGTI tour apart from winning the Jaipur PGTI Feeder Tour event the same year. Last year, the golfer won a PGTI title after a gap of 11 years when he had won the Vizag Open. Earlier in April this year, Cheema won the Kapil Dev Grant Thornton Invitational 2025 with a score of 20-under-196 after the end of three rounds. It was his biggest win in terms of prize money as he pocketed a cheque of Rs 30 lakh. Cheema said that winning the title at Vizag last year gave him a lot of boost in terms of motivation as well the winning edge on the professional circuit. 'Working with my coach Jesse Grewal and trainer Lavish Chaudhary also meant that I was in good shape. The Kapil Dev Grant Thornton Invitational was played under a new format with three rounds including 60 men and 12 women apart from amateur golfers, and the win was special in my career too as it came in a new format,' the golfer further said. Post the win in April, Cheema also played in one of the Final British Open Qualifiers at West Lancashire and finished tied 43rd. While Cheema currently does not have an Asian Tour or DP World Tour card, the PGTI title win this year means that he will most likely play in the DP World Tour's inaugural India Championship in October in Delhi — an event where five-time major winner Rory Mcllroy will also be playing. 'Playing in the British Open Final Qualifiers helped me a lot in terms of understanding the different conditions. I will be playing on the PGTI tour including the Trident Open to be played in Chandigarh in November later this year. I hope I will be able to play in the DP World Tour's inaugural India Championship in October too based on my PGTI Order of Merit points and I will then decide at the year end to go for Asian Tour or European Tour qualifying,' Cheema concluded.
