The men’s javelin final at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, set for Thursday September 18 at around 4:00 pm IST, features a highly anticipated showdown between defending world champion Neeraj Chopra (India) and Olympic champion Arshad Nadeem (Pakistan). Neeraj secured his spot with a first-throw qualification of 84.85 m, while Arshad, struggling initially, sealed his place with a final-round throw of 85.28 m. Joining them in the final are Julian Weber, Anderson Peters, Julius Yego, Dawid Wegner, Sachin Yadav (India) and others—totaling twelve athletes who advanced from a field of 37. Neeraj, having breached the 90m mark earlier in the season, is aiming for consistency and peak execution, whereas Arshad is looking to carry his late qualification momentum into the medal rounds.
