World Athletics Championships: Annu Rani Qualifies For Javelin Throw Finals
A last attempt throw of 59.60m, though well below her season's best, ensured javelin thrower Annu Rani qualify for her second consecutive finals in the World Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Annu was on the verge of ending her campaign after starting with a foul throw and 55.35m in her second try but sent her spear to 40cm short of 60m in her third and final attempt on the fifth day of competitions in Eugene. She finished fifth in the Group B qualification round and made it to the finals as eighth best across the two groups.
