India&rsquo;s javelin champion Neeraj Chopra won the gold medal at the Kuortane Games in Finland with a throw of 86.69 metres on Saturday beating world champion Anderson Peters of Grenada and Trinidad and Tobago&#39;s Keshorn Walcott.</p>

Neeraj came up with his best throw in the very first attempt setting a mark that his rivals could not surpass. After a nasty slip due to the rainy conditions while executing his third throw, he decided not to go in for any further attempts.</p>

Walcott finished second with a throw of 86.64 metres and Peters came at the third spot with a best throw of 84.75 metres.</p>
<p>
This was Neeraj Chopra&rsquo;s second competition after winning the first Olympic gold medal in athletics at the Tokyo Olympics Games.</p>

The Indian army man won the silver medal earlier this week at the Paavo Nurmi Games, with a throw of 89.30 metres which also broke his own national record of 88.07 metres established in March last year.</p>
