Silver Medal

Neeraj Chopra can't improve on his 88.13m in his final attempt in the men's javelin throw. He still creates history becoming the first Indian man to win a medal at the World Championships. He takes silver behind Anderson Peters who retains the world title he won in 2019.

Record-Breaker

Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra becomes first Indian man to medal at World Championships. His best throw of 88.13 came in his fourth attempt, on a day Anderson Peters bossed the field with three 90m+ throws. On not his best day, Neeraj still walks away with a silver. #WCHOregon22 pic.twitter.com/JZHSPUI1LX
