I did not try my best.The World Championship is scheduled to take place in Tokyo from 13 September to 21 September.Now when asked about his next goal that the 90 -meter mark has been closed, Chopra said, “My next goal is just 90 meters.

We are still working on some aspects.”Chopra credited the favorable conditions in Doha to help open the large throw and shared that Zelezney had predicted a 90 -meter attempt even before the competition.“When I was warm-up, my coach said that today is the day when I can throw 90 meters. Even after my 90 meters throw, he told me that I can throw 2-3 meters away.“The wind helps to ensure and the weather is slightly warm and it helps. This is the first competition of the year, so everyone came with a fresh mindset after a long time and is hungry inside for the throwing part.“I also told Julian (Weber) that we can throw 90 meters. I am happy for him too. We have tried a lot for 90 meters for so many years, and so we are happy. It is like a good push between us and in the next competition we will push each other again and throw forward.”

This was not the first time Chopra abolished the runner-up after a record throw.“This happened earlier also. When I threw an NR in Turku with more than 89 m, I finished second. In Stockholm DL, when I threw 89.94 meters, I was again again, so here too,” he said.Meanwhile, Weber, who first violated the 90 -meter mark, expressed happiness over the competition and the success of Chopra.“I didn’t know how it happened. I had a very good massage for my physiotherapist. It was fun today. Neeraj threw his first 90 meter plus and I moved beyond the mark in my last throw and it was perfect.“I was very happy for him. We have been fighting for 90 meters throw for a long time and we both achieved it today. So, it was very special for us.”Weber’s 91.06 meter effort – the best in the world so far this season – made them the 26th athlete to dissolve the iconic distance.Two -time world champion and Paris Olympic bronze medalist Anderson Peters of Granada finished third with the best of 84.65 meters, registered in his initial attempt.
