Arshad Nadeem: A tale of quiet resolve behind monster 90m throws

When Pakistan's national sports board was deciding who to finance among the seven athletes bound for Paris Olympics, only Arshad Nadeem and his coach were deemed good enough for funds. Nadeem and his coach Salman Fayyaz Butt were the lucky ones to have their air tickets financed by PSB (Pakistan Sports Board). On Thursday, the 27-year-old from Khanewal village in Punjab region repaid the faith with an Olympic record and country's first individual gold at the biggest sporting stage on the planet.
