Sumit’s golden hat-trick
Orissa POST
|October 01, 2025
Sumit Antil became the most successful Indian in the history of World Para Athletics Championships, clinching his third straight javelin title to help the country pocket two gold and as many silver on the most productive day here Tuesday.
Cheered on from the stands by two-time Olympic medallist Neeraj Chopra, 27-year-old Sumit Antil claimed the men's javelin F64 title with a championship-record throw of 71.37m on his fifth attempt, dominating a field he commanded throughout.
He bettered his own championships record of 70.83m set in the 2023 edition, but was nearly 2m away from his world record of 73.29m which he had set while winning the 2023 Asian Para Games gold. No Indian has won three gold in World Para Athletics Championships.
