Ostrava Golden Spike: Neeraj Chopra wins – Highlights

Thank you for joining!

That's all we have from men's javelin throw at the 2025 Ostrava Golden Spike – a World Athletics Continental Gold Tour event.

Neeraj Chopra did not have the best of starts to the competition, fouling his first attempt. But he displayed immense consistency and took the lead after the third round of throws with an attempt of 85.29m.

There was no chasing him down after that as he registered his second consecutive win ahead of Douw Smit (84.12m) and Anderson Peters (83.63m).

Thank you for joining into our coverage. See you next time!
