Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Neeraj Chopra was not fully fit at this time last year. Due to this, he could not participate in the Doha Diamond League, but Neeraj is not only fully fit this year but is going to start the season at the Doha Diamond League itself. Neeraj said on Sunday that his aim this year is to win the gold at the World Championship while keeping himself completely fit. He is going to try to stop the discussions about the distance of 90 metres this time. However, he is not putting much pressure on himself in this regard.
I didn't get much time for preparations last time. Neeraj says that compared to last year, he is well prepared this year. Last year, he also started the season with the Paavo Nurmi Games held in Finland in June. He was not ready in the middle of last year in terms of fitness, strength, and technique. There was not much time for preparations, but this time it is not like that. He is not only fully fit but is about to start the season on time. This is the reason why he is going to be seen playing in the Doha Diamond League, which will be held on May 5, where triple jumper Aldos Paul is also going to participate with him.
Reports say that Neeraj, who is preparing at the Gloria Sports Arena in Antalya (Turkey), says that he wants to win the World Championship gold, but there is no pressure for it, be it gold or silver. Win it now or win it later. This session is long for him, so he is trying to be technically efficient this time.
