This impressive performance has reignited the nation’s hopes for an Olympic medal, which have been wavering in the face of tough international competition. Nadeem’s season-best throw, achieved on his first and only attempt in the qualifier, ranks him fourth heading into Thursday night’s finals. In the light of these circumstances, it is crucial for the government to acknowledge and harness the potential represented by athletes like Nadeem. The current state of Pakistan’s sports facilities and support systems leaves much to be desired. May Arshad Nadeem’s arm be strong, his aim true and may he soar above the competition to bring glory to Pakistan and achieve the Olympic gold!
