Neeraj Chopra Lausanne Diamond League Live Streaming: When and where to watch?

Neeraj Chopra, Lausanne Diamond League 2024: India’s javelin star Neeraj Chopra is back in action just two weeks after winning the Olympic silver medal, with his sights now set on victory at the Lausanne Diamond League. Here’s everything you need to know about Neeraj’s javelin throw event on Thursday, August 22.

Paris Olympics silver medallist Neeraj Chopra has confirmed his participation in the Lausanne Diamond League meet, scheduled for Thursday. Neeraj, who achieved a season-best throw of 89.45 metres in Paris, has only competed in one Diamond League event this season, in Doha, due to a groin injury.

The eleventh meeting of the 2024 Diamond League will take place on August 22, 2024, at the Stade Olympique de la Pontaise in Lausanne, Switzerland. This prestigious track-and-field event will feature multiple gold medallists from the Paris 2024 Olympics, including Neeraj Chopra, who recently secured a silver medal. With Olympic gold medallist Arshad Nadeem absent, Neeraj is considered the favourite to win in Switzerland. However, he will face stiff competition from five of the top six javelin throwers from the Paris Olympics, including bronze medallist Anderson Peters.

Additionally, Neeraj will be up against Jakub Vadlejch, who outperformed him in the Doha Diamond League earlier this year, and Julian Weber, who triumphed in the Paris Diamond League. Currently ranked fourth in the Diamond League standings, Neeraj aims to finish within the top six to secure a spot in the Diamond League Final in Brussels next month. The Lausanne event will also see the participation of several Olympic champions, including Armand Duplantis from Sweden, who is looking to extend his undefeated streak in international competitions. Sam Kendricks (USA) and Emmanouil Karalis (Greece), the silver and bronze medallists in the pole vault from Paris 2024, will also be in action.
