Annu Rani, India’s reigning Asian Games champion, won the women’s javelin throw event at the International Wiesław Maniak Memorial in Poland with a season-best throw of 62.59 metres. Her performance outclassed Turkey’s Eda Tugsuz and Australia’s Lianna Davidson, who took silver and bronze, respectively. Rani’s first throw of 60.96m had already secured her the lead, and her second throw extended it to a new season-best. This victory places her among the world’s top 15 female javelin throwers in 2025 and boosts her chances of qualifying for the upcoming World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.
