India's javelin star Neeraj Chopra will return to action after a gap of a month at Lausanne Diamond League today. The Olympic champion was out of action due to a minor groin injury that he got during the World Championships. He had started off the event on a bad note with some terrible throws. In the 4th attempt, he gathered all his energy and threw 88.13m to secure a silver medal for himself, also his first in the World Championships. That was the same throw that got him the injury as well. It was only a day later that Neeraj announced that he will not be taking part in the Commonwealth Games 2022 to defend his gold medal in the mega event. The injury was minor but it could have further worsened had Neeraj not pulled out of CWG 2022. 

Not to forget, Neeraj has had a terrific season in 2022, which began in June. He started off his season at Paavo Nurmi Games afte rbeing out of action for 10 months and he started iff by breaking his own national record with a throw of 89.30m. He then clinched a gold medal at Kuortane Games and then at Stockholm Diamond League, threw his career's best 89.94m to come second behind his rival Anderson Peters. 

At the Lausanne Diamond League, Neeraj will be aiming to cross the 90m mark. That is something he has been eyeing for a long time and has marked an aim in this season as well. In Stockholm, he came very close to the 90m mark, missing the mark by 0.6 cms. Hopefully, he will be ableto cross the mark in Lausanne.
