From the CITIUS MAG preview of the Zurich Diamond League Final: “Julian Weber and Neeraj Chopra showed everyone just how exciting their matchups can be in Doha earlier this summer, where the German downed the defending World champion with sequential PBs of 91.06m and 90.23m. Three months later, the pair are poised for another battle and expectations are deservedly high. Weber is coming off the second-best performance of his life in Brussels, an 89.65m bomb, and the only black mark on his record this year is a narrow loss to Chopra in Paris. India’s prodigal son hasn’t competed in nearly two months, with his last meet being the aptly named Neeraj Chopra Classic in Bengaluru. That could be looked at as a point of concern, but he had gone about the same span without competing directly before Worlds in 2023 and the Olympics last year, and those meets both turned out just fine. Despite how good Weber v. Chopra will end up being, it’d be unwise to completely overlook Anderson Peters. The defending champ has had a down year, but he just recorded his best mark in over three months in Brussels.” Read more here: https://citiusmag.com/articles/zurich-diamond-league-final-2025-preview
