World Champion Anderson Peters: India's Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra and Asian Games silver medallist Kishore Kumar Jena will be kicking off their 2024 outdoor season in the third meet of the Wanda Diamond League 2024 set to take place at the Qatar Sports Club, Doha, Qatar, on Friday.

The premier athletics meet will feature champions competing across 14 Diamond disciplines, with 2020 Olympics gold medallist and reigning World and Asian Games men's javelin throw champion Neeraj Chopra as the favourite to start his season on a winning note.

Chopra will be joined by countryman Kishore Jena in the men's javelin competition, along with familiar names such as former World Champion Anderson Peters (Grenada) and Tokyo 2020 silver medallist Jakub Vadlejch (Czech Republic). Chopra won the 2022 Diamond League series but finished as runner-up to Vadlejch last season.
