Tajinderpal Singh Toor clinched the gold medal with a throw of 20.51 metres, marking only his second 20m-plus outdoor throw in the last two and a half years.
The performance signals a positive step in Toor’s return to form after a challenging period. Earlier this season, he had also secured silver at the Asian Indoor Championships with a throw of 20.05 metres.
Meanwhile, Samardeep Gill, who impressed with strong performances last year, endured a difficult outing and finished 11th with 16.88 metres, continuing a tough start to his 2026 season.
