The well-known and talented Olympic gold medalist, Neeraj Chopra, has been named brand ambassador by Switzerland Tourism.
In this development, the athlete will promote the sporty, stunning and adventurous outdoors of Switzerland to Indian travellers.
After clinching the prestigious Diamond League trophy in Zurich earlier this year, Chopra along with his friends, who joined him in Switzerland went on a holiday.
Earlier this year in September, the Indian sports icon also donated his gold-winning javelin to the museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.
The museum was established in 1993 by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and it already consists of Mary Kom‘s gloves and Dhyan Chand’s hockey.
