Pakistan's javelin star Arshad Nadeem broke the Olympic record before clinching the gold medal at the Paris Games last week.
Arshad's 92.97m attempt soared through the Parisian night sky, confirming Pakistan's first gold medal at the Olympics since 1984.
Less than a week after stunning the reigning champion Neeraj Chopra of India, Arshad has revealed that he had travelled to the Paris Olympics 2024 carrying an injury.
He made the revelation while speaking at the Prime Minister's office in Islamabad on Wednesday. "Just five minutes before I had to go to the call room (the room where athletes in track and field events gather before their names are announced and they appear on the track), I felt a pain.
