Neeraj Chopra Is A 'cool Cat', Very Consistent, He Will Win The Gold, Says AFI Chief Sumariwalla
Olympic Gold Quest CEO Viren: Olympics, Asian, and World Championships gold medallist javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra is a 'cool cat', very consistent, and goes quietly about his job without taking too much pressure, says Athletics Federation of India (AFI) President Adille Sumariwalla about his star athlete's chances of retaining his gold medal in Paris Olympic Games.
Sumariwalla said whenever he runs into Neeraj and enquires about his preparations and chances, the first Indian to win an Olympic medal tells him not to worry.
"He just tells me. 'don't worry, I will do it' when I ask him about his preparations. He is a cool cat, very consistent. He knows that everyone expects him to win the gold medal in Paris but he will go about his preparations and deliver when it matters most," Sumariwalla said during a panel discussion about India's chances at the upcoming Paris Olympics organised by the Sports Journalists Association of Mumbai (SJAM) on the occasion of World Sports Journalists Day on Tuesday.
