Neeraj Chopra’s unprecedented javelin throw storms as the season’s best effort of 89.34m in the Paris Olympic games that qualifies him into the Finals at his very first attempt. Neeraj is looked upon to bring Gold for the country for the second time. Besides, Vinesh Phogat faces off an outstanding match against world champion Yui Susaki.

Yui Susaki is recorded to have consecutive international win in wrestling. It is the Indian wrestler Vinesh who brought a break to Susaki’s winning reign. Vinesh turned emotional and bursted into tears after defeating Susaki with her strategic encounter scoring 2-3. Vinesh reached the semis as she defeated Ukraine’s Oksana Livach by 7-5 in the quarter finals.

Neeraj Chopra comments on Vinesh’s win against Susaki as “unreal”; he finds it quite overwhelming to defeat a four times world champion and prays for her of winning a medal, as he says after his game.
