On the 11th day of the Paris 2024 Olympics, India’s javelin thrower Kishore Jena faced a challenging qualification round.
Qualification Round Details:
- Attempt 1: 80.73 meters
- Attempt 2: Did not register (X)
- Attempt 3: 80.21 meters
Current Status:
- Rank: #7 in Group A
- Qualification Requirement: To advance, Jena needs to be among the top 12 across both qualification groups. The standard qualification mark is set at 84 meters.
Jena’s performance did not meet the qualification standard of 84 meters, and his best throw of 80.73 meters places him in a precarious position. As he awaits the results from the other group, his chances of advancing will depend on how the remaining competitors perform.
