Diamond League Paris 2024 Live Streaming: When And Where To Watch Kishore Jena In Javelin Throw Action
Why will Neeraj Chopra not participate in Diamond League Paris 2024? When will the event be held and where to live stream it? Find all answers in our report
Athletes will gain invaluable exposure to conditions and try to acclimatize themselves before they return for the quadrennial sports extravaganza, later in the month. India's golden spearhead Neeraj Chopra, however, will not take part in the virtual 'dress rehearsal'.
Reigning Olympic and world champion Neeraj is not a part of the entry list for the Paris Diamond League men’s javelin throw competition. That is because he had not included it in his calendar of events, and is currently gearing up for Paris 2024.
“Just to clarify: the Paris Diamond League wasn't part of my competition calendar this season, so I haven't 'withdrawn' from it,” Neeraj Chopra wrote on social media. “I'm focusing on getting ready for the Olympic Games.”
Nevertheless, Neeraj’s compatriot and colleague Kishore Jena will compete at the javelin throw event. Jena, who bagged silver medal at the Hangzhou Asian Games, will be hoping to strike form before making his Olympic debut in Paris.
Elsewhere, world record-holders Faith Kipyegon (women's 1500m) and Mondo Duplantis (men’s pole vault) are among the star athletes who’ll be in action at what is known as the Meeting de Paris.
