1, 92.97, 116: the best numbers from Neeraj vs Nadeem in the Paris Olympics javelin final

Neeraj Chopra reinforced his Indian sports GOAT status by winning silver at the Paris Olympics on Thursday, making him the only Indian athlete with an individual Olympic gold and silver. Neeraj produced his career's second-best throw but even that wasn't good enough for the Olympic gold as Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem shattered the Olympic record for the gold. Fifth-placed Julius Yego's best was better than what Neeraj threw for the gold in Tokyo.
