Indian javelin thrower inspires nation
AMAZING ARM. Neeraj Chopra of India competes in the men’s javelin throw final at the World Athletics Championships on July 23, 2022 in Eugene, Oregon. There was no grand plan that launched Chopra on the path to be-
coming an Olympic champion javelin thrower, only a simple suggestion. Pudgy and pampered — his description — as a kid growing up in the northern part of India, Chopra’s uncle suggested one day that he head out to a nearby
stadium to get some exercise. It was there that Chopra first saw the javelin. Chopra won a silver medal at the championships held in Eugene last month. See story on page 14. (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel)
