Pakistan’s top javelin thrower, Arshad Nadeem, expressed his satisfaction after finishing in fourth place at the Paris Diamond League on Sunday.
Nadeem, while talking to a local media channel, stated that he is pleased with his return to the field after a year and is preparing for the upcoming Paris Olympics.
“Hopefully, I’ll be able to do my best at the Olympics,” he said.
Arshad Nadeem will return to Pakistan and train under his coach Salman Butt before returning to Paris to participate in the Olympics.
“God willing, I’ll use these two weeks of training to make up for any deficiencies,” Nadeem added.
The star athlete kicked off in Diamond League with a 74.11-meter throw on his first attempt, followed by an 80.28-meter throw on the second try.
The star athlete’s third throw went for 82.71 meters, which placed him in the top three, however, he was surpassed by the Czech Republic’s Jacob Vadlejch, who threw at 85.04.
Nadeem needed a big throw in his fifth attempt to trump Vadlejch, but he failed to do so, achieving an 84.21-meter throw, thus ending in fourth position.
Germany’s Weber Julian won the gold medal in the javelin throw competition, courtesy of an 85.91-meter throw, which he achieved in his fifth attempt.
