Never easy to return from injuries: Neeraj Chopra

Speaking at the National Games Sports Conclave along with PV Sindhu, Gagan Narang and Anju Bobby George, Neeraj said he too faced a situation when he felt all was lost, when he got injured twice. "When we get injured, we feel that everything is over.

I felt it when I got injured in 2019 ahead of the Worlds, but I came back. It happened again ahead of the CWG this year.

It was never easy both times. After injury, the athlete is forced to answer the question -to continue or not.

It all depends on how you answer the question. I decided to keep going both times," Neeraj said.

"At the early stage of an athlete's career, the role of coaches and trainers is very important. Knowledge of trainers and coaches comes in handy in avoiding injuries for the athletes."
