Doha: Competing at last year's World Championships with a back injury was not a good decision, conceded seasoned Indian javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra before assuring that he "feels fit" as he gears up for a delayed start to his season at the Doha Diamond League here on Friday.
Chopra finished a disappointing eighth in the Tokyo World Championships in September 2025 with a modest throw of 84. 03m. He revealed after the event that he was carrying a lower back injury. It took time for him to recover and he had to delay the start of the ongoing season.
