While headlines screamed ‘silver’, the real drama unfolded with Yash Vir Singh, a 24-year-old debutant, launching his javelin 85.41m in his final throw; a personal best; to grab bronze. He wasn’t even in medal contention until that moment. For Chopra, it was a season-best 85.83m; for Singh, it was a career-defining moment. Two Indians, one podium. And what makes it even sweeter? Chopra himself said it reminded him of the Hangzhou Asian Games; where he and Kishore Jena made it a 1-2 finish. This isn’t just about medals. It’s about legacy. About a new generation stepping up. Singh didn’t just make it to the podium; he forced his way onto it when it mattered most. And that’s the kind of resilience that doesn’t fade after the Games. India’s javelin future? It’s not just safe. It’s soaring.
