New Delhi: Olympic medalist Neeraj Chopra is unlikely to compete in the upcoming Rome Diamond League javelin event scheduled for next month. The uncertainty surrounds his recovery, as he is still dealing with a persistent back injury. Due to fitness concerns, Neeraj’s name has not been included in the initial entry list for the prestigious tournament set to take place in Italy on June 4.
If he misses the event, it will come as disappointing news for his fans and athletics enthusiasts. Neeraj has been struggling with fitness-related issues since last year’s World Championships and is currently undergoing rehabilitation in Turkey. At present, his primary focus remains on regaining full fitness before returning to competitive action.
