Pakistan's Olympic gold-medallist javelin thrower Arshad Nadeem will skip the Diamond League meet in Lausanne this month to focus on preparing for another international event and the Asian Games in Japan this year.<\/p>\n
Arshad\u2019s long-time coach, Salman Butt, said the javelin thrower was presently training in Lahore but would soon leave for South Africa, where he will train for a few weeks under his coach, Terseus Liebenberg, and local trainers.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has decided against competing in the Diamond League meet this month as he wants to be ready for the Asian Games,\u201d Butt said.<\/p>\n
Arshad didn\u2019t qualify for the top eight in the finals of the recent Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, where Sri Lanka\u2019s Rumesh Tharanga Pathirage eventually took the top spot with a throw of 89.75 metres, while India\u2019s Neeraj Chopra and Yash Vir Singh took the second and third spots respectively.<\/p>\n
