Mon Jan 20 08:47:14 UTC 2025: ## Olympian Neeraj Chopra Secretly Marries Tennis Player Himani Mor in Himachal Pradesh

**Sonipat, Haryana:** In a surprise announcement, Olympic gold medalist Neeraj Chopra revealed his marriage to Himani Mor, a tennis player from Sonipat, Haryana. The intimate wedding ceremony took place at a resort in Solan, Himachal Pradesh, between January 14th and 16th, with only 40-50 close family members in attendance.

Chopra, a resident of Panipat, Haryana, shared the news and photos on social media on Sunday evening, catching fans and even neighbors off guard. The low-key affair was kept secret, with no pre-wedding celebrations or post-wedding reception at the Chopra family home in Panipat. This secrecy, according to Himani’s mother, Meena Mor, was due to Himani’s need to return to the United States for her studies, prior to a deadline for international students.

Himani, a national and international-level tennis player, is the daughter of former State Bank of India employee Chand Ram Mor. Her father is known for establishing a sports stadium in their village, Ladsouli, where he coaches players in circle kabaddi. The couple’s families have reportedly known each other for 7-8 years.

Hints of the impending marriage had surfaced online several months ago, with a user on Reddit claiming to have heard about the union within Haryana’s sports community. The wedding was attended exclusively by immediate family members, with no photos shared on social media by attendees.

Chopra’s family confirmed the news, stating that the athlete himself preferred a private ceremony. Following the social media announcement, relatives and neighbors rushed to the Chopra’s home in Khandra village, Panipat, to offer congratulations. The couple has since left for their honeymoon and will host a reception upon their return to India.
