Julian Weber Wins Gold with 90.40m Javelin Throw

German athlete Julian Weber won the gold medal at the European Athletics Championships on August 16, 2026, with a massive throw of 90.40 meters.

Weber became only the second javelin thrower to cross the 90-meter mark this season, setting a new championship record in the process.

This performance establishes Weber as a top contender for the upcoming Lausanne Diamond League, where he is expected to face stiff competition from India's Neeraj Chopra.
