Neeraj Chopra continued to break new grounds as he clinched the only gold medal missing in his decorated trophy cabinet but most of his compatriots flattered to deceive once again at the World Athletics Championships. Indian athletes have won a total of three medals at the marquee event so far, with Chopra accounting for two of those - one silver and one gold. Legendary long jumper Anju Bobby George had won a bronze in the 2003 edition. On Sunday night, the man with the gold arm scripted history again as hurled the javelin to a distance of 88.17m to become the first Indian to win the coveted yellow metal in World Athletics Championships.
