king of sprint

Chapter 325 New York Super Grand Prix

When Rousseau came off the court, he happened to pass Guyi shoulder to shoulder.

Guy frowned slightly looking at the 9 seconds.

From the 2007 World Championships, when the news of Rousseau's 'injury' came out, Guy still watched Rousseau's performance drop from the world's top level to the world's lowest level. Even A·F terminated the contract with Rousseau. It seems that Rousseau's performance has been irreversible ,hopeless.

So what's going on with this 9 seconds?

Guy felt puzzled and cared.

On the [-]-meter track, no one can ignore Rousseau.

Gay is eager to have another peak duel with Rousseau and win it. After all, in the just-concluded U.S. Olympic Trials, Gay ran a magical 9-meter time of 68 seconds. Proof that Guy is in good shape.

After walking on the runway, Guy restrained his emotions.

Snapped!
The starting gun sounds.

Amidst the cheers of the audience, Gay ran a time of 9 seconds as if demonstrating with Rousseau, reaching the finish line far ahead of other competitors.

When crossing the finish line, Guy looked at Rousseau on the sidelines as if in a demonstration, and Rousseau smiled and applauded, indicating that Guy ran well.

……

The 100-meter final of the New York Super Grand Prix was officially held at 15:30 in the afternoon.

Originally, this game attracted many media reporters, but in the interval between the qualifiers and the finals, a large number of reporters came to the scene. They only wanted to know that Rousseau's world-class speed seemed to be back.

And this kind of Rousseau is facing an opponent who just ran 9 seconds 68 in the National Olympic Trials. Doesn't this kind of matchup make track and field fans excited and looking forward to it?
With much anticipation, the 100-meter final started on time.

今年国际田联关于赛道的安排，已经使用了新规则，预选赛成绩排名前4的选手，用抽签的方式决定3、4、5、6道的归属，后4则用抽签来决定1、2、7、8道。

Rousseau was lucky, and he drew 5, while Guy drew 6, and the two sides were next to each other.

The [-]-meter track is a straight track, and the allocation of the track has little impact on the players, so this allocation does not matter.

Before the game started, Guy seemed a little excited and nervous. Compared with Guy, Rousseau's mood was more stable.

It is understandable that Gay has always been a challenger to Rousseau. It is a good sign for Gay to have a chance to beat Rousseau when he is at his best before the 2008 Olympic Games.

Guy had to cherish this opportunity.

As for Rousseau, Rousseau was thinking of Usain...

……

Snapped!
The starting gun sounds.

Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of spectators and the cameras of countless reporters, the contestants rushed out of the starting line.

In order to capture a shot, the reporters will bet on who will win the championship, and then point the camera at the end of the track. After all, it is only a few seconds to decide the result of the race, and it is too late to move the camera direction.

This time in the finals, the track arrangement of the contestants was more friendly to the reporters. They all focused their cameras between the 5th and 6th lanes, and whoever crossed the line first could be captured by the camera.

So they saw that in this 100-meter final, Rousseau and Gay competed fiercely.

At the start, Rousseau was a little slower than Gai. This is the most different thing about Rousseau from before. Before that, Rousseau’s start was extremely stable and terribly stable. Afterwards, Rousseau's entire running habits changed.

What was the result?

Gay's lead over Rousseau lasted for the first half, but Rousseau was biting hard at the back. Both of them were fast. In the first half, they showed the suppression of world-class sprinters by world-class trappers, and the two formed an independent cluster , ahead of everyone.

After running on the way, Rousseau's height advantage was revealed, and he began to overtake Guy little by little. This kind of running method of using absolute strength to overtake the opponent is full of excitement for the audience, but for the overtaken For the players, it was full of despair.

Guy experienced this 'despair' only in Rousseau and Usain.

He thought he could beat it.

But I didn't expect that when I faced Rousseau again, I would still have to face these.

He gritted his teeth, stared wide-eyed, his cheeks swayed left and right with fierce steps, and chased Rousseau with all his strength.

There was no live broadcast of this match. If there was a live broadcast, the host must be full of wonder and emotion at this moment. It is really rare for such a fierce duel to break out in the final of a super grand prix.

In a blink of an eye, Rousseau and Gay had entered the last 20 meters almost side by side. Gay had entered the inertial stall state ahead of time because he was chasing too hard, but he still tried his best to maintain his top speed.

At this moment, Rousseau raised his speed sharply, and began to steadily surpass Gay with a relative advantage.

How is it possible... Guy was horrified to find that Rousseau was still able to maintain a high speed on the way at this moment, and his stalls were slower and less than in the previous confrontations.

At this moment, Guy had the feeling of facing Usain, and Usain was like this, striding his long legs in the last part of the [-] meters, easily overtaking all the competitors.

No!

Can't lose!
Guy continued to push forward desperately.

But still can only watch Rousseau gradually leave him behind.

Then, with a pain in his thigh, Guy fell to the ground, falling in high-speed movement, like a rubber band stretched to the limit was snapped, completely out of control.

……

When Rousseau crossed the line, he felt a "bang" behind him. He turned his head in surprise, and saw Gay fall to the ground.

……

The medical staff immediately entered the track to diagnose Gay's injury. Gay's coach and the organizing committee members gathered together, making it impossible for Rousseau to tell how Gay's condition was.

However, after all the dust settled, Rousseau saw Gay sitting in a wheelchair, his whole body seemed to have lost his vitality, slumped there, and was pushed out of the field by his coach.

"Gay is injured, his thigh is strained." Lu Jinrong told Rousseau, with a feeling of "thing hurts its kind" in his tone, because just ten months ago, Rousseau also left the game because of such an injury.

But now there is only one and a half months before the Olympic Games, can Guy recover from his injury?I'm afraid it will be difficult. Even if the injury is healed, it will be a huge challenge to recover to the peak performance, which means that this injury will make Gay lose the Olympic Games.

And how many times can an athlete have the opportunity to participate in the Olympic Games in his life?
Rousseau was also very emotional.

However, everyone was more excited, because in this final, Rousseau ran a time of 9 seconds.

　Two more~
