Former world javelin champion Julius Yego has set one major target for himself this year as he looks to regain his old form after struggling in recent years.
Former world javelin champion Julius Yego is keen to avoid lightning striking twice as he begins his 2025 season at the Doha Diamond League.
Yego had a hard time qualifying for the Paris 2024 Olympics, when he failed to hit the qualifying standard, only making it through the world rankings.
With the 2025 World Championships coming up in Tokyo, Japan in September, Yego needs to qualify again for what will be his seventh appearance at the global showpiece and he knows it will not be easy.

The 36-year-old has therefore set himself the target of making sure he hits the 85.5m mark that is required to nick a ticket to Tokyo, a difficult task that he was only able to manage twice last season, both at the Paris Olympics.
