Seven days after breaking his personal record, Neeraj Chopra is set to be back in action at the Janusz Kusocinski Memorial 2025 on May 23.
The memorial is named after Polish long-distance runner Janusz Kusocinski, and this will be the 71st edition of the tournament. It is also part of the World Athletics Continental Tour (silver meet).
Chopra finally breached the 90m mark after long anticipation at the recent Doha Diamond League meet, but it still proved to be second best on the night. Germany's Julian Weber saved his best throw for the same event, throwing 91.60m in his final attempt.
