Pakistan’s javelin thrower, Arshad Nadeem, has broken India’s Neeraj Chopra record of the longest javelin throw—82.23m— in the ongoing South Asian Games. Arshad Nadeem’s javelin throw of 86.29m not only registered him in the record books but also lead to his qualification for Tokyo Olympics.

The 22-years-old, previously a bronze medalist, won the gold medal with his longest-ever throw. The minimum entry standard of 85m throw in the Olympics for the men’s competition was surpassed by him with ease.

The Athletics Federation of India also congratulated Arshad Nadeem for his achievement.

Well done Sir, we need a lot more like you. Wish you all the success in future events as well.

Well done for qualifying. At first I was going to check what the world record throw is, but then I thought to myself how unfair it is to compare this guy to the worlds best. He hasn't had any of the equipment/opportunity/culture that those guys have.


For those interested, the world record is 98.48 m.
