feeling. I was feeling strong and confident before the event and after the first
throw I was sure I could go farther, he said.Chopra began strongly with a throw
of 79.66m, leading the game. While South Africas Johan Groblers attempt of 80.59
briefly took away his lead, the 19-year-old settled for a comfortable lead post
his next throw of 86.48m. He finished the round with a third throw of 78.36m.He
had previously made the cut for the finals with his throw of 78.20m in the
qualification round.When the spear left my hand on that second throw, I had a
feeling that this was a special throw, said Chopra. I dont think I expected it
to go over 86 meters but since the last couple of months, I have worked hard on
my fitness, my technique and it all paid off today.He now ranks eighth amongst
all throwers this year, moving ahead of Olympic gold medalist Keshorn Walcott of
Trinidad and Tobago, whose best this year has been a throw of 86.35m.Chopra,
however, missed his shot at Rio as his throw - much higher than the Olympic
standard of 83m - came after the cut-off date of 11 July.
