India Can Win More Than One Javelin Medal At Paris Olympics, Says Kishore Jena
The Summer Olympic Games: Rising javelin throw star Kishore Kumar Jena, who will start his outdoor season from the Diamond League in Doha in May, has said that he "doesn’t see Neeraj Chopra as a rival".
The Summer Olympic Games are just a little more than 130 days away and Jena is working hard towards making it a memorable outing for the country along with Olympic and world champion Neeraj Chopra. Jena, who is currently training at the National Institute of Sports (NIS) in Patiala, said, "India can win more than one javelin medal in Paris".
Jena has been making headlines ever since he went toe-to-toe with Neeraj Chopra at the world athletics meet in Budapest last year. For the first time in the history of the Asian Games, Chopra and Kishore Kumar Jena made it a javelin one-two in Hangzhou 2023. Having qualified for Paris, Jena feels medal prospects in javelin are not only limited to Chopra.
