Arshad Nadeem on Thursday, uplifted the nation with a historic medal in the ongoing Games. He broke the all-time Olympic record with a 92.97m throw in his second attempt which was enough for him to clinch the Gold.

For the historic achievement, Mr Salman Iqbal congratulated Arshad Nadeem and announced to reward him with an apartment in ARY Laguna.

“Congratulations to Arshad Nadeem for winning the gold medal for Pakistan,” said Mr Salman Iqbal.

Arshad had an unwanted start to the Paris Olympics final as he failed to make a mark in his first attempt which was deemed as “No Throw”.

He, however, made an astounding recovery and fired in a massive 92.97m throw.

His biggest rival India’s Neeraj Chopra secured the silver medal with an 89.45m throw in his second attempt while all of his other attempts were deemed as “No Throw”.

Anderson Peters of Grenada clinched the bronze medal with his longest throw of 88.54 m.

All 12 participants were to throw three times in the first stage, after which the top eight athletes had three more throws.

For the unversed, Arshad Nadeem qualified in the final round of the Javelin throw on Tuesday with an 86.59-meter throw in his first attempt during the qualification round.

The final of the Javelin Throw event was telecasted live on Pakistan’s first HD Sports Channel A Sports and also streamed live on ARY ZAP.
