Neeraj Chopra Wins Silver in Men's Javelin Throw at CWG 2026

Neeraj Chopra won silver in the men's javelin throw final at the Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow. The result adds another major medal to his growing collection on the global stage.

Chopra has been the dominant force in Indian javelin for years. He holds the Olympic gold from Tokyo 2020, the Olympic silver from Paris 2024, and the World Championship gold from 2025. A Commonwealth Games podium finish extends that run of consistency across every major event he competes in.

The men's javelin throw has become one of India's most reliable medal events at international meets, largely due to Chopra's presence. His silver in Glasgow keeps that streak alive and adds to India's athletics tally at these Games.

Fellow Indian thrower Yash Vir Singh also medalled in the same event, taking bronze, giving India a strong 1-2 finish in the men's javelin at CWG 2026.
