Neeraj Chopra: India’s golden boy Neeraj Chopra traded his javelin for a ping pong paddle in the middle of his Switzerland getaway. The Olympic medallist kicked off his scenic break in Zurich, getting into friendly matches and experiencing the thrill of paragliding amidst the picturesque landscapes.

After his disappointing eighth-place finish at the World Championships in Tokyo last month, Neeraj took a brief respite from his athletic pursuits and is enjoying a scenic break in Switzerland.

Neeraj jumped into a spontaneous game of table tennis and walked away with some wins. Afterwards he strolled along the Viadukt, Zurich’s artsy-cool repurposed railway line, before heading up the Freitag tower, a stacked shipping containers in Zurich-West, for city views that clearly left an impression.
