2. Neeraj eyes 90m in first Diamond League meet of the season. The Doha Diamond League meet last year saw two javelin throwers get past the 90m mark. Grenada’s two-time world champion Anderson Peters recorded the fifth-longest throw in history (93.07m) while Tokyo Olympic silver medallist Jakib Vadlejch had a personal best of 90.88m. This time India’s Olympic Champion Neeraj Chopra will also be in the fray, hoping for a rub of the green in the desert city.
