Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem declines Neeraj Chopra’s invite to compete in NC Classic javelin event

Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem declines Neeraj Chopra’s invite to compete in NC Classic javelin event

The Hindu

Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem declines Neeraj Chopra's NC Classic invite due to Asian Athletics Championships training schedule.

Pakistan’s Olympic champion Arshad Nadeem on Wednesday said he has declined Neeraj Chopra's invitation to compete in the NC Classic javelin event in Bengaluru on May 24 as that will clash with his training schedule for the upcoming Asian Athletics Championships.

Nadeem, however, said he was grateful to Chopra for inviting him for the event.

“The (NC) Classic event is from 20th May (May 24) whereas I am scheduled to leave for Korea on 22nd May for the Asian Athletics Championship,” Nadeem said.

He said he had been training hard for the Asian Championship which will be held in Gumi, South Korea, from May 27 to 31.

On Monday, Chopra had said that he had sent invitation to Nadeem to compete in the inaugural event which the Indian superstar is hosting.

"I have sent invitation to Arshad and he said he will get back to me after discussing with his coach. As of now he is yet to confirm participation," Chopra told reporters in a virtual media interaction on Monday.

Nadeem had clinched gold in the 2024 Paris Games with an Olympic record throw of 92.97m, beating Chopra who could manage 89.45m to win the silver.
