Following in Bolt's footsteps

Chapter 294 Coleman:?

Xie Zhenye really made a good start.

Wang Yu of the men's high jump event guarded the "broad airspace" of China's high jump alone, facing the repeated attacks of Australian star Stark, European Championship champion Pribilka, World Championship third runner-up Ghazal, and Olympic third runner-up Bondarenko. He stuck to it.

In the IAAF Indoor Tour Finals at the beginning of this year, Wang Yu set a new national indoor record for men's high jump with a score of 2 meters.

This time his result was 2 meters. Although he was still far from his best result, his opponents were also in poor condition.

Maxim Nedaseko of Belarus and neutral athlete Ilya Ivanyuk also jumped out of a height of 2 meters, but Wang Yu passed with one stroke, and Nedaseko and Ivanyuk were third The pole was skipped, so Wang Yu successfully guarded the "airspace" of the Modu Stadium.

In the women's 11 meters, Jamaican star Elaine Thompson performed abnormally and ranked third with only 14 seconds. Liang Xiaojing ran 11 seconds to create a personal PB.

At 19:25, the men's 110-meter hurdles, a reserved event of the Diamond League Magic City Station, began.

This event, which is permanently reserved by Liu Xiang, attracts many masters to participate every year. The competition record is also Liu Xiang's 2012 seconds in the rain in 12, which has not been broken so far.

Although Liu Xiang officially retired in 2015, in fact he has no competition record since the London Olympics, and his younger brother Xie Wenjun succeeded Liu Xiang as the leader of the Chinese men's 2013m hurdles in 110.

2013年13秒28、2014年13秒23，连续两年刷新PB，让人们一度以为谢文君真的能像刘翔一样成为世界顶级的110米跨栏运动员。

But in the next few years, he never broke the barrier of 13 seconds, especially on the eve of the Rio Olympics, the congenital bone fracture and waist injury recurred, which made him only run 30 seconds in the preliminaries and missed the final.

In 2018, Xie Wenjun was unwilling to hover beyond 13 seconds. Following Liu Xiang, he offered to change the eight-step hurdle to seven-step hurdle. He followed Renault and Andres to train successively. When he and Wei Yongli were training in Europe last year, the coach of him and Wei Yongli was Renault.

Jakarta Asian Games, 13 seconds 34; Doha Asian Championships, 13 seconds 21; two champions heralded his return.

"boom--!"

Yang Jian: "The competition has begun! Seven steps to the first hurdle, Xie Wenjun's first hurdle was done well, very smooth."

"McLeod is in the lead in the first 50 meters, Xie Wenjun is accelerating in the future, and is currently in second place. Is there any chance?!"

"In the last column, Xie Wenjun sprinted! Xie Wenjun won the second place, and McLeod won the championship in 13 seconds, achieving the achievement of four consecutive championships in the Diamond League Magic City Station."

"Xie Wenjun is not too far behind McLeod. This time should be around 13 seconds and 20 seconds! A new personal best time! 13 years old, two personal best times in one month. Career persistence and His firm belief and pursuit of his dream have rewarded his hard work, congratulations to Xie Wenjun!"

At 19:50, the men's long jump and men's javelin were also over. The next event was what audiences in China and even the world were looking forward to. The long guns and short guns were directly aimed at the 9 players who were already in the [-]-meter starting area.

Yang Jian: "Next, the last event of today's Magic City Diamond League is also the event that everyone is most looking forward to-men's 100 meters. Let us meet the 9 athletes who participated-"

"Track 1, Chinese player Wu Zhiqiang. Wu Zhiqiang ushered in an explosive start this year. He won the Asian Games at the Doha Asian Championships with a time of 10 seconds and refreshed his personal best time."

"In the second track, the 2-meter model worker that everyone is very familiar with, Mike Rogers from the country, Rogers is really a model of dedication. He ran a full 15 shots in the indoor race, and he has already run in the Osaka Invitational on the 6th. 16 shots, worthy of the name of [model worker].”

"In the third track, the player from England, Prescord, has a personal best of 3 seconds in Eugene last year."

“第4道，来自霉国的短跑领军人物——克里斯蒂安·科尔曼。科尔曼今年是23岁，2018年的巴黎和布鲁塞尔两站中他先后跑出了9秒79和9秒76，是历史上第九位跑进9秒80的运动员。”

"The fifth track next to him is suitable for Su Bingtian, who has a similar style to him. Last year, Su Bingtian ran super performances of 5 seconds, 9 seconds, and 90 seconds. Two extremely promising players lined up together. I believe It will be very exciting!"

"The 6th track is Lyles from the bad country. He was the men's 200-meter champion in the U.S. Championships last year. He is actually a 100-meter athlete. Participating in the [-]-meter race should be to improve his future ability."

“第7道，伦敦世锦赛冠军、2017/2018钻石联赛年度总冠军、个人历史第二成绩9秒66的缔造者、中国的红色闪电——吴子义！”

The cheers when Su Bingtian was introduced were strong enough, but the audience in the Shanghai Stadium could really understand what it means to be "deafening". The whole stadium was shocked!
"The 8th track is Akani Sibini from South Africa, and the 9th track is Isaia Yang from the United States."

"The men's 9m world best time this season is 94 seconds. I believe this time will be refreshed after this race, but the final result will only be known after the gun is fired. It may be 9 seconds. 8, maybe 9 seconds 7, let's wait and see"

Behind the starting block, the 9 runners were ready, and the live camera was undoubtedly patrolling back and forth on lanes 4, 5, 6, and 7. After the starter gave the "On your marks" command, it even gave Wu Ziyi a long shot. Up to 10 seconds of close-up.

The players stepped on the starting block one after another. At this time, the audience in the stadium basically stopped making noise, and the whole stadium became quiet, creating a relatively good environment for the players to start and listen to the gun.

"Set—"

"boom--!!"

When the starting gun fired, Wu Ziyi's start was very conservative, and the starting reaction was 0.179 seconds, which was still slow for Wu Ziyi's level.

But this season he has set a "game mode" for himself, conservative in the future and sprint in the back, which is for the sake of his body.

Although last year's performance was very good, the continuous high-intensity competition made his physical wear and tear increase sharply. Wu Ziyi can feel that his physical condition is still at its peak, but the last thing he wants to see is to get injured at this juncture and delay his impact. high historical level.

Starting conservatively, Wu Ziyi was already trying his best to control his explosiveness, but he didn't expect that someone could be as slow as him, and it was Noah Lyles beside him.

Wu Ziyi didn't need to look to know that Coleman and Su Bingtian in the 4th and 5th lanes were engaged in a fierce forward confrontation, and the shadowless feet of the two were hitting the ground at a very high frequency at this time, in order to gain sufficient forward advantage.

Unexpectedly, autumn harvests and winter storage, winter turns to spring, and it will be summer in another month. Lyles's future ability still has not improved, which makes Wu Ziyi quite disappointed.

At 30 meters, Su Bingtian and Coleman were neck and neck, leading the other players present by a huge advantage. Apart from the veteran Mike Rogers, the closest player was Prescord. They were half behind the Suco combination at this time position.

Although Wu Ziyi used a conservative running method, he still couldn't hold back. At this time, he was one position behind the Su Ke combination and was in the third echelon.Lyles and Sibney's prospects were in a mess, and they were actually pulled away by a full two positions by the Su Ke combination.

Oh, and Isaiah Young who is three positions behind, this man can be buried
"The race has started! Su Bingtian and Coleman both start very fast. They are neck and neck in the first 30 meters. Did Wu Ziyi not perform well?"

Yang Jian, who was explaining, was trembling. After all, in his impression last year, Wu Ziyi did not lose to Coleman even in the first 30 meters. It is really out of the question to fall behind by a position like this. than he expected.

Many spectators at the scene were also exclaiming, especially some fans of Wu Ziyi temporarily stopped cheering. They thought that Wu Ziyi would become stronger at the beginning of the new season. Many fans thought before the game that he would directly complain to Tyson Gay launched an impact on the record of 2009 seconds set in 9, but he did not expect this to be the case.

哪怕是不太了解田径的云观众都能看出来，这种前30米发挥别说冲击9秒69了，就是9秒8也不一定跑的进啊。

Randy on the sidelines was indeed very relaxed. He knew Wu Ziyi's plan, and he also very much agreed with Wu Ziyi's approach. It is very rare for an athlete to consciously release water to protect his body.

Moreover, Wu Ziyi has the courage to execute it, which shows that he is very confident in his own strength. The last athlete Randy knows to do this is Usain Bolt.

However, unlike Bolt's release of water in the later stage, Wu Ziyi chose to release water in the future. This method is actually very "dangerous" because the release of water in the future is more uncontrollable than the release of water in the later stage, especially with the extreme future types like Su Bingtian and Coleman. In the competition of players, it is easy to fall behind too much in the future and cannot recover in the future.

But to think about it in another way, if he can recover even when he has not fully exerted his future, it will better reflect his physical condition.

40 meters, 50 meters, 60 meters.
The players on the field continued to accelerate after entering the midway running stage, and they were about to enter or have already entered a state of extreme speed when they reached the 60-meter area.

The atmosphere on the court became hot again, because after 30 meters, Wu Ziyi seemed to "recover" his rhythm again, and began to pull back the previous gap bit by bit. When he came to the 60-meter position, he was still far away from Su Bingtian. half body.

At this time, Coleman was still in the lead. Within the 30-meter interval, he began to gradually get rid of Su Bingtian and confirmed his own leading edge. Lyles and Sibney on the 8th and 9th lanes finally "woke up". He began to make continuous efforts to tie Prescord.

70 meters, 80 meters, 90 meters.
The picture in the memory of the audience finally came back. Wu Ziyi, who entered the state of extreme speed, was chasing at a frighteningly fast speed.

After 70 meters, he tied with Su Bingtian, and after 80 meters, he tied with Coleman. The rest of the distance is naturally settled. Although the situation in the future is a bit surprising, the final outcome is nothing more than Wu Ziyi's future. Hermann came in second.

Right?
"Su Bingtian followed Coleman's rhythm closely, but was still opened up a little bit."

"Wu Ziyi started to accelerate! With extreme speed, Su Bingtian and Coleman were overtaken successively, and Wu Ziyi crossed the finish line first!"

"9 seconds 81, although the process was a bit tortuous, it is actually 9 seconds faster than last year's 82 seconds 0.01 in Shanghai. Coleman lost to Wu Ziyi again, and it seems that there is another player in the inner lane. The later journey is overtaken.”

Lyles, who crossed the finish line, was a little happy, because he turned his head to look at Wu Ziyi and Coleman when he pressed the line. Wu Ziyi took the lead, so he could just see Coleman's line.

Although not sure, Lyles felt that he should have it.

The replay was given on the big screen. Although it was very close, Lyles was obviously a fist ahead.

"Oh——! Lyles won No.2. This is really a surprise. I think Coleman's mood should be very complicated. It's okay to lose to Wu Ziyi, after all, he has lost many times. I didn't expect to be killed by Lyles in the last three steps, this would be hard for any athlete."
