Neeraj Chopra has won his first gold medal of the season at the Kuortane Games with an 86.69m throw.

The Indian javelin thrower hit the mark in his very first attempt at the event, had a foul in his second attempt and endured a nasty slip in his third, following which he opted to skip the remaining two attempts.

While Trinidad and Tobago’s Keshorn Walcott (86.64m) bagged silver medal, Granada’s Anderson Peters (84.75m) won bronze.

Another Indian in the competition, Sandeep Chaudhary finished eighth with the highest throw of 60.35m.
