The 2012 IAAF Diamond League Eugene Station was held on June 2 at the Hayward Track and Field Stadium of the University of Oregon. The Huazhonghuajia Track and Field Team sent a 13-man lineup led by Liu Xiang to participate in the competition. Among them, the 110-meter hurdles, which attracted the most attention,
Liu Xiang will compete with four great players: Robles, Oliver, Merritt, and Richardson.
This competition is the fourth stop of this year’s Diamond League. There are 24 competitions in total, including 16 Diamond League events, 9 for men and 7 for women. The competition is divided into two days and the venue is the Hayward Track and Field of the University of Oregon.
After the Magic City Station and Rome Station, our country will continue to send players to participate in the competition.

Although it is not a diamond event, it is the first event to start on this site. Zhang Wenxiu, who just broke the Asian record for the 9th time in Germany, will participate. Her opponent is still the German star Hedler.
On the second day, there will be 16 events, including 14 diamond events. The most popular ones are undoubtedly the men's 110-meter hurdles, Liu Xiang, Robles, Oliver, Merritt, and Richardson, the five strongest athletes today.
Together, we will present a peak showdown for everyone, and this will also be the first preview of the London Olympics. Zheng Xingjuan will participate in the women's high jump competition. Competing with her is last year's Daegu World Championship champion, Russian star Qi Qi.
Cherova and German gay female player Friedrich; Lu Minjia participated in the women's long jump competition. Her opponents included the host country's famous player, two-time World Championships, and Indoor World Championship champion Rise.

[Chief track and field coach of the United States: Eugene’s 110-meter hurdles is the strongest competition in history!]
The official website of the Eugene Diamond League described it this way in the 110-meter hurdles preview report: "Which event in this year's Eugene event is the most entertaining and can inspire the most enthusiasm among the audience? Of course it is the men's 110-meter hurdles. In this newly renovated Oregon venue
At the starting line of the university's Hayward track and field, the five fastest men in the world's high hurdles events will gather together to perform fast and furious."
In the list of appearances, the five superstars Liu Xiang, Robles, Oliver, Richardson, and Merritt are impressively listed, plus the addition of Turner in the 110-meter hurdles at the Daegu World Championships last year and Eaton, the decathlon silver medalist...
...It can be said that this is not only a replica of last year's Daegu World Championships finals, but also to a certain extent, it is likely to be a preview of the London Olympics finals.
The recent results at the Kawasaki Grand Prix and the Diamond League Magic City Station have proven that Xiangfei's seven-step attack on the first hurdle has been increasingly perfected, and coupled with its outstanding sense of rhythm, it is still the "killer weapon" to disrupt opponents. However, this
The five top players are so close in strength that no one can predict who will be the winner after 13 seconds. Not to mention, in last year’s Eugene race, when Liu Xiang had already run a gold-rich result, Oliver didn’t expect it.
He won the championship with an even better time of 12.94 seconds. Before the 2008 Olympics, Liu Xiang was sent off for jumping the gun in the Eugene game...
Fortunately, Eugene brought more happy memories to Liu Xiang and accompanied him as he grew up.
When Liu Xiang was invited to compete for the first time, he defeated seven other American players, including Alan Johnson, Arnold, and Trammell. In 2006, Liu Xiang defeated Ducoure, Alan Johnson, and
Oliver. In 2007, Liu Xiang defeated Moore by a narrow margin and won the third championship. This time, whether he can regain his former style in the Tianwang Mountain battle depends on the next game.
American track and field head coach Alan Lanner said before the game: This may be the most valuable high hurdles competition in the world. Just like the Daegu World Championships, it would be incredible if there was not a big fight.
[Liu Xiang runs normally to prevent injuries and diseases. Sun Haiping: The competition will definitely be fierce.]
There are so many experts competing in the Eugene Station this time, and it is regarded by the outside world as a preview of the men's 110-meter hurdles final in the London Olympics. However, Sun Haiping, who has been reminding Liu Xiang to run more slowly recently, still seems very calm: "A Xiang, calm down and work hard."
Just perform well and treat the Eugene Station as a high-intensity training session. The most important thing is to pay attention to preventing injuries and diseases."
Sun Haiping said that after the Magic City match on the 19th, Liu Xiang's training situation remained good. Although the training intensity has been strengthened, his condition was maintained well and he was ready for the competition.
"All top players will come to this competition. The competition will definitely be fierce. There will be enough stimulation for every athlete and everyone will be very excited. Everyone is easily excited and wants to defeat their opponents." Sun Haiping
Yesterday, he said, "This is a good opportunity to test the results of recent training, and it is also a good opportunity to inspect the Olympic opponents. But Liu Xiang is an old athlete. He knows how to control his emotions and regulate his own rhythm to cope with the competition."
"Although we arrived at the competition venue 4 days early this time, the fatigue and jet lag of long-distance flights are not easy to eliminate, and will affect Liu Xiang's physical condition to a greater or lesser extent. In addition, we must also consider the weather conditions, especially the wind direction.
The problem is, if there is headwind, the results will be difficult to say.”
"After the Eugene race, we will go directly back to China to adjust training and prepare for the London Diamond League to be held on July 13-14 and the subsequent London Olympics."
Just when the entire Omi media was warming up for this Eugene battle, suddenly near the early morning of that night, a piece of news came, catching everyone off guard.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even Liu Xiang was a little stunned.
[Robles may miss the peak showdown of the Eugene station or his visa dream may be cut off. 】
According to Reuters, Robles may miss the 110-meter hurdles race in Eugene because he has not been able to obtain a visa.
This is the first time Robles has traveled to the United States to participate in a competition. The Eugene station competition is also regarded as a preview of the Olympic 110-meter hurdles final. Robles originally planned to fly to Eugene this Wednesday and take a good rest, but visa issues may prevent him from missing it.
Eugene station game. Robles originally wanted to show off his skills in the Diamond League in Eugene station, because Eugene station is a very important warm-up opportunity before the Olympic Games. According to his coach, Robles and his
Due to visa reasons, the coaching team was unable to make this trip to Eugene.
"It is impossible for us to participate in the Eugene race. Although the trip has been delayed, Robles is still one of the eight fastest people in the world," said his coach Santiago.
Robles originally wanted to show off his skills at the Eugene Station on June 2, but the visa issue caused a time conflict. Even if the visa was approved before then, they would not be able to rush to the United States before the game.
Robles' coach said. Robles' coach Santiago mentioned that it was a great pity that Robles could not participate, because this race includes some of the fastest hurdlers in the world.
Robles hopes to compete in the New York Grand Prix on June 9.
Saw this news from Reuters.
Liu Xiang was also a little confused.
He never expected that this guy Robles wouldn't come even if he said he couldn't come?
He has also prepared a preview for this Olympics. Before the Olympics, he will defeat all potential enemies with his own hands and establish his invincibility before going to London.
All that's left now is Robles.
If you say you can't come, you won't come?
As for the visa issue, that's nonsense. As a top athlete in a sport, someone has planned the entire trip. Moreover, the Eugene Station of the Diamond League is also the preview site for major competitions over the years. How could it not be prepared in advance?
Just like Su Shen, Liu Xiang and others, they had settled this matter long ago.
They don’t even need to manage this themselves, many people will handle it for them.
Therefore, this issue can only be deceived by laymen, and it will sound like a complete joke to insiders.
"You're right, Robles hasn't played against a famous player this year. This is the best opportunity. Will he... not come?" After Liu Xiang saw it himself, he went to the team to confirm it several times.
After hearing that the members of the Xiangzhi team responsible for external communication repeatedly confirmed that Robles was not coming, he was stunned for a long time...
There is always a feeling that after holding back a breath, the rightful owner does not come.
"Forget it, if he doesn't come, he won't come." Sun Haiping took the lead and said, "We just need to run our own course."
"And since he doesn't come, then there must be something wrong with him."
"It seems that the complaints and injuries reported some time ago are very likely to be true. It is because of poor condition that I don't want to come to the game at all."
"Is it an injury?" Liu Xiang heard this and suddenly felt something. Robles was so much younger than himself, so is he still suffering from this?
For professional athletes, injuries are as severe as a tiger's.
If he didn't come, Liu Xiang's duel pressure would suddenly be reduced a lot. In the state he was in in Magic City, there was probably no one except Oliver who could pose a threat. Richardson or Merritt would have been better first.
Let's talk about it after opening it for thirteen seconds.
Liu Xiang just shook his head slightly, then said he was tired and went to bed early.
What are you tired of?
Mainly because I'm tired.
If Robles doesn't come, he will have nowhere to use his energy.
Sun Haiping's idea is from the perspective of the coach and the team. He believes that it is a good thing that Roberts will not come.
It shows that the condition is really bad.
Or maybe he's just suffering from injuries.
Otherwise, the Olympics would not be so different as the Olympics were approaching.
Originally, he had seen the status of most people this year, except for one, Robles, who was still undecided.
It is also the most threatening one.
After all, he is the defending champion.
In fact, Sun Haiping was really scared at first, because the other side was setting off smoke bombs.
Deliberately paralyzed.
This kind of thing happens not once or twice in the track and field world.
But looking at it now, it probably isn't.
If Robles is out of form, Liu Xiang has a great chance of winning this year.
It can even be said that it skyrocketed all of a sudden.
The IAAF and major sports websites responded promptly to the question of who will win the 110-meter hurdles championship in this year's Olympic Games. After receiving Robles's decision to abandon the competition, they all unanimously increased Liu Xiang's probability of winning.
It instantly became the biggest hit.
none of them.
At this time, in the hotel where everyone was staying, Zhao Haohuan saw the news that Robles was not coming on the TV. He immediately turned his head and looked at Su Shen who was calmly drinking water next to him, and said in shock:
"I go."
"I really won't come."
"You guys are really amazing."
"Then it means he was really injured and has not recovered. Brother Xiang is... stable this year."
The excitement on Zhao Haohuan's face was no less than when he won the bronze medal in Daegu.
They all sincerely hope that Liu Xiang will have more things that belong to him this year.
Only Su Shen did not answer Zhao Haohuan's words immediately.
Instead, he looked at the TV and murmured to himself:
"Is it stable?"
"I hope so."
PS: Keep going~~~~~~~~~~ It’s a new month, let’s vote for Xiaozi Yibo~~~~~~~~Hehe~~~~~~~~~~~~
