Ostrava, Czech Republic – June 24, 2025: Indian javelin star Neeraj Chopra is set to compete at the Ostrava Golden Spike 2025 today. The event is a World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meet. Chopra, a two-time Olympic medalist, is fresh off his Paris Diamond League win. He will face strong competition, including Rio 2016 champion Thomas Rohler from Germany.
The meet holds special meaning. Chopra’s coach, Czech javelin legend Jan Zelezny, is the tournament director. Zelezny holds the meet record with a 94.64m throw. Chopra, who broke the 90m barrier this season, aims to impress on his coach’s home turf.
The nine-man field includes Grenada’s Anderson Peters, a two-time world champion. Chopra missed the last two editions due to injuries. This is his first time competing at the Golden Spike. He hopes to continue his strong 2025 season.
