**New Delhi, India** – Olympic gold medalist and world champion javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra has surprised fans by announcing his marriage to Himani Mor. The 27-year-old athlete revealed the news on social media Sunday, sharing photos from a private ceremony attended by close family and friends earlier this week.
Chopra, who is the first Indian to win an Olympic medal in athletics, described the occasion as the start of “a new chapter” with his family. His bride, 25-year-old Himani Mor, is a former tennis player from Haryana, the same state as Chopra. Mor, who last competed in 2017, is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Sports Management and Administration in the United States.
A family member confirmed that a larger reception is planned for the couple in the near future. This marks the second high-profile wedding in Indian sports in recent months, following the marriage of Olympic medalist PV Sindhu in December. Chopra’s impressive achievements include gold medals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, the 2022 World Athletics Championships, and the 2018 Commonwealth Games. He also won silver at Paris 2024.
