DAEGU, South Korea - With two Olympic gold medals, two European Championships titles and a world crown, Andreas Thorkildsen of Norway has done about all you can in javelin. But he still yearns for more.
Taking part in his fifth World Championships, the 29-year-old is relentlessly chasing another title.
"I want to win. Everybody has to go through qualifying on Thursday and hopefully I will get ready to move forward to Saturday," Thorkildsen said on Tuesday, two days before the men's javelin qualification.
