What a day this has been!

2 events of Indian interest and 3 Indians qualify for the Final. Quite some day for Indian athletics - might be one of the better ones in history. 

Neeraj Chopra started it off when he reached the Hayward field at 5:35am and packed his back to leave at 5:36am. While the Olympic champion made it without breaking a sweat, the inexperienced Rohit Yadav and Eldhose Paul had their nerves tested.

Results

Neeraj Chopra qualifies for Javelin Throw final with only throw of 88.39m.

Rohit Yadav qualifies for Javelin Throw final with best of 80.42m.

Eldhose Paul becomes first Indian to reach Triple Jump with a best of 16.68m.
