It was his gold medal in Tokyo that gave us hope that Indians too could achieve the absolute peak in sporting glory. Since then, we have all had our eyes on Neeraj Chopra as he went from strength to strength. Wrapping up the 2024 season with a silver medal at the Diamond League in Brussels, Chopra took to Instagram to reflect on a challenging year. In a heartfelt post, he revealed how he competed in Belgium despite a fracture in his left hand’s fourth metacarpal.
Sharing not just his injury, Neeraj also touched upon how he learnt a lot from the 2024 season, including improvement, setbacks and strong mentality. With some time off before the new season, Chopra now has the opportunity to fully recover and reflect on his 2024 performance. His determination to improve despite his success is truly inspiring. My Kolkata wishes India’s Golden Boy a speedy recovery and an even more successful 2025. Check out his post for a glimpse into the mindset of a top-tier athlete.
