- It was a good qualifier and my goal was to only throw one throw and then be able to prepare for the final, says the Indian to SVT Sport after the first qualifying group, A.

If you throw this well in a qualifier - what can you do in a final?

- I can throw better even if all competition days are different.

I will do my best in the final.

How has the year been since you became Olympic champion?

- It has been good because in my country there are many young people who have started like me.

It has also been a good year for me as I broke my national record twice and today's throw was also good, says Chopra.
