The former Olympic champion has made a few changes and will be looking for a great 2025 comeback.
Former Olympic javelin champion Keshorn Walcott is looking forward to a resounding comeback in 2025, firing warnings to Julius Yego, Neeraj Chopra, and Arshad Nadeem among other javelin stars.
The Trinidadian javelin thrower has disclosed plans to bounce back to the top after a troubling season full of injuries. Walcott has made strategic changes as he looks to make a mark one more time, despite the tough competition that has risen in the recent past.
The 2025 World Championships will be the main event of the season and Walcott intends to make the team and try his luck to win the elusive medal.
Justin Gatlin waxes lyrical of MVP founding head coaches & brothers Stephen & Paul Francis, the masterminds behind churning out talents like Kishane Thompson, Shericka Jackson and more.
His 2024 was not perfect but he was adamant that it was what he could achieve at the time and despite the tons of challenges, he made the Olympic team and was able to get to the final where he finished seventh.
His fans were certainly disappointed but that does not bother him at the moment as he is burning the midnight oil to ensure everything is on course ahead of his season debut in 2025.
Walcott was once a top contender in the javelin, winning the gold medal at the 2012 London Olympic Games and a bronze at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games but he has since struggled to make an impact. He had surgery for an Achilles tendon injury, however, there might be a change in 2025.
“2024 was good. Starting out with the challenge of having surgery and going into the season with a bit of an unknown factor, I believe the season went as best as it could have gone,” Walcott said as quoted by Sports Max.
“I know everybody might have been disappointed, including myself, about not getting a medal at the Olympics, but, at the end of the day, I’m still proud about what was accomplished for the season,” he added.
He revealed the coaching changes he has made and noted that a lot has been happening since that, giving his fans hope ahead of the busy season.

Walcott expressed satisfaction in how things have been turning out and truly there will be significant changes when he shows up for events in 2025.
“I’ve included some additional coaching to my team. We have been making a lot of changes in terms of technical and overall training itself. The method has changed,” Walcott said.
“We’re just looking for a different overall season and result. Things have been going well, and I’m happy with training and the progress so far.”
