Thank you.

Neeraj Chopra belongs to a farmer family from the state of Haryana, India, and is 27 years old. During his early school days he worked hard on his fitness, and since winning the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics 2020, he has won gold in every major competition, which is an achievement for Indian athletes.
At the Asian Games in 2018, Neeraj won the gold medal with a throw of 88.06 meters. Neeraj is the first Indian to win gold at the Asian Games.
In the history of the Asian Games, India has only two medals in javelin throw. Neeraj broke his own record by throwing 88.07 meters in the Indian Grand Prix held in Patiala and created a new national record.

Two-time Olympic medalist 27-year-old Neeraj covered a distance of 90.23 meters in his third attempt at the Doha Diamond League and joined the list of many greats of the world who have thrown up to this distance.
Neeraj's best throw is yet to come. Being his fan, I am expecting better throws and medals from him in the future.

I love this guy... He is a rare talent, and I have followed him from time to time. Especially in the last year's Olympics, I saw he had a special bond with Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem. That's what Sports are, appreciating the rivals.
Thank you for your participation. Good luck!

I am a great fan of sports especially cricket, hockey and athletics ever since I was in 5th standard. I have played badminton and chess at higher level myself. But men like Chopra and Abhinav Bindra have brought glory to my country besides having a great sportsmanship. That's what make them unique. Thanks for picking my post. I congratulate everyone on the list and wishing to see more participation.
When discussing my all-time favourite athlete, I am confused between Muhammad Ashraful and Lionel Messi. Both of them are my favourites I don't know which I love more. Mohammad Ashraful, just because he is my countryman, I am putting him above Lionel Messi.
Mohammad Ashraful may be the first iconic cricketer of Bangladesh. A teenage boy, the youngest Test Centurion, emerged in the cricket world with his talent, skills, and techniques. A boy full of dreams. He was named as "Ashar-Ful" means "Flower of Hope" to the media of Bangladesh. He help Bangladesh recognized as a Team who can beat World Champions and other great team.
There are a lot to talk about him. But, I want to keep it simple and finish this here. Thank you.

Ha Ha... I thought you would talk about him, as he is your idol... One day, you can share a detailed article about Ashrafu.
Thanks for the participation.
Haha. Yes, I will. Thank you.
I love watching football, both local and international matches. Football creates a sense of belonging, improving relationships between two or more countries and making them stronger. My favorite athlete is Cristiano Ronaldo, known as CR7. He is a Portuguese professional player and was born on the 5th of February, 1985. CR7 has played for international clubs such as Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus. Currently, he plays for Al-Nassr Club in Saudi Arabia.
Cristiano Ronaldo was an amazing striker, as well as the captain of his club. Ronaldo has won several cups for the clubs he has been transferred to, and many people, like me, respect him due to his generosity. Research confirms that he doesn't drink alcohol and that there are no signs of tattoos on his body, which is why he usually donates blood to support sick people. Ronaldo has received the title of World’s Best Player from FIFA five times.

He is a generation player, an idol to thousands of people. I have read so many things about his dedication and commitment to the game. He is a living example of Hard work pays off.
Thanks for your participation!
I love the way he played on the field especially the dribble aspect which make him famous on the field. He built himself to the extent that he gain a lot from the skill he developed. He was among the highest goals scorer which make sure that the team he signed on would uplift the trophy.
