Chapter 1820 Semi-finals? Are they all death groups?
The Olympic Village Flower Gardener's track and field team lives in a building.
Although Yu Toyoki is not here, Yu Weili will go over and take charge of the overall situation. Chen Ding's victory celebration cannot be without the greatest leader, and Yu Weili is the biggest now.
So he stayed there all night.
Now here, only Yuan Guoqiang is in charge.
Isamu Toyoki is still on the plane, he won't arrive until tomorrow morning.
In the conference room, Yuan Guoqiang called over the five people who would be attending tomorrow's semi-finals, then took out the group list for tomorrow's semi-finals and said: "Okay, everyone is here, let's start directly. It's not a good time to do it today."
It’s too late, you all should have a good rest.”
After saying that, Yuan Guoqiang put tomorrow's semi-final grouping table on the table and said: "First is the women's group."
Group 1 Carmelita Jeter, Abiton Oyepitan, Olesya Pov, Rudy Zan Mirama, Wei Yongli, Veronica Campbell Brown, Luo
Sangela Santos, Laverne Jones Ferret.
Group 3: Blessing Okabare, Chen Juan, Tiana Madison, Muriel Ahure, Verena Sailor, Karen Stewart, Miriam Summar, Li
Na Sam.
"The competition format this year is different from that in 2008. I think everyone already knows this. The semi-finals in 2008 were two shots, but now it has been three shots in the semi-finals. If there are three shots, each group will only have two places to advance, and then
There are only two little ones left in total." Yuan Guoqiang looked at Chen Juan and Wei Yongli and said: "You two are not in a particularly good group."
"You could say bad luck."
"Wei Yongli, you have Jeter and Brown in your group. It goes without saying what the strength of these two people is. They both definitely want to advance directly, and your current strength is simply incomparable to these two. Facts
There is no way for the rest of the people in this group to compare with these two people, so it is inevitable for the remaining 6 of you to fight for Xiao Q." Yuan Guoqiang analyzed: "At present, even if there are still two Xiao Q's left,
, then you have to get at least fourth to be able to advance.”
"And you also have to consider the third-place results in other groups, so it's best to be third."
"If you finish third and still haven't advanced, it can only mean that it's fate."
"Just do your best."
Yuan Guoqiang still took care of Wei Yongli's emotions and said: "Of course, I think you don't have no chance at all. For example, Santos of Brazil, her career best score is 11.21. Her recent best score, if you don't take into account the super windy 11 in the preliminaries.
07 seconds, that only leaves the 11 seconds 21 she ran at the end of May. Considering the wind speed, I think you have a chance to beat it."
"Laverne, who is from the Virgin Islands, has the advantage of being older and rich in experience, but the disadvantage is that her physical function has begun to decline. But it can't be too big, because this year she also ran 11.18 seconds at 0 wind speed.
This result is second only to 2009, when he ran 11.13 seconds. However, on the eve of the Olympics, Ravi relied on a strong wind of more than 4 meters to open up 11 seconds and hit 10.91 seconds."
"If you take into account the speed barrier that Xiaotian mentioned, maybe he has improved after this one. It's hard to say. Because after this one, he has not participated in other competitions, and he also ran 11 in the last Olympic Games.
With a good result of 07 seconds, it’s hard to say whether he tried his best. Maybe he now has the ability to reach around 11.05 seconds, maybe it’s better, that’s not sure.”
"Olesia made a huge breakthrough in Yalta in June this year. She broke 11.10 seconds in one breath and ran to 11.08 seconds. And she also ran 11 seconds at the Uzbekistan Championships in the final against the wind.
11. It can be roughly estimated that he already had the ability to run within 11 seconds and 10 seconds at that time. The result he ran in the preliminaries this time was 11 seconds 18. Maybe there is still a lot of energy that has not been used."
"Rudy Mirama from Gabon is even more capable. He broke 11 seconds last year, and this year he even won 11 seconds 03 in Port of Spain, and ran again in the French Championships.
She clocked 11.03 seconds, which is quite strong. This year her coach also claimed that her goal is to hit 11 seconds. If she has such strength, it may be difficult for you to match her. The results in the preliminaries were due to the super wind speed.
I didn’t count, but I ran to 11.14 seconds easily.”
"Local player Oyepitan is also a 79-year veteran. The peak of his career was in 2004 when he ran 11.17 seconds. His subsequent results have been between 11.50 and 11.40 seconds.
time, but this year he suddenly hit 11.21 seconds in Florida, and I don’t know what his current state is. In the Eagle Championship, she got the promotion spot in 11.37 seconds with a tailwind."
Wei Yongli listened carefully to Yuan Guoqiang's introduction and analysis of these players, because she had not dealt with European players many times, which made Wei Yongli unfamiliar with many players.
Listen now.
Only then did I realize that most of these people's PBs were above me. Some of them even had much better results this season than me.
Looking at it this way...there are not a few people who have opened 11 seconds 10.
In this case, Wei Yongli would be under great pressure.
Don't mention the top three from this look.
Whether we can reach fourth place is a question.
This is why Yuan Guoqiang could only sigh slightly after seeing the list of Group 1. Wei Yongli can be said to be...
No chance at all.
As it stands, the top three are extremely difficult.
The fourth place is probably very difficult.
In this case, you ask him to fight for Xiao Q.
It is really difficult to force someone to do it.
Therefore, Yuan Guoqiang reported to the superiors from the beginning, saying that this group had little hope of advancing and should not put pressure on the athletes.
Wei Yongli looked at these people carefully and fell into deep thought.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yuan Guoqiang did not speak. This kind of thing can only be faced by the athletes themselves. There is no point in talking about it.
"Okay, let's take a look at the third group of the semi-finals." When Yuan Guoqiang said this, he looked up at Chen Juan on his right and said: "Although you are very strong and better than Ali, you want to be direct
To get the top two, I’m afraid it’s very stressful.”
"Because there are quite a few opponents in your group who have opened for 11 seconds."
"This, this, and this... may all be opened for 11 seconds, or even many times."
Chen Juan looked down and saw that there were indeed many powerful people. After changing to three groups, there were only two places left for direct promotion.
This means that the semifinals must not be taken lightly.
"Okabare, Ajuan, this person is your old rival. Although last year's Pb was only 11.08 seconds, today suddenly he made a huge leap forward. He has opened it many times this season.
11 seconds, even in the preliminaries, I ran a career-long time. The best result is somewhat similar to yours, 10 seconds 93, which is quite outstanding." Yuan Guoqiang looked at the information at hand and said: "Just what her coach said in front of the media.
From her performance in the preliminaries, it can be seen that she should still have some energy left."
"In this case, maybe she has the ability to hit 90 in 10 seconds at a good wind speed, or even within 90 in 10 seconds."
"Besides, she has some similarities with you mentally, and is even taller than you in height. This opponent may be one of the strongest competitors in your group."
Chen Juan watched Okabare's preliminaries and she was indeed very fierce.
Running on top of American player Madison.
Even in the Madison preliminaries, the time limit was 11 seconds, and I ran 10.97 seconds, but I was still one step behind.
This ability may be really impactful, and it may be 90 or less in 10 seconds.
"Although Madison used to be a long jumper, he is now very strong. He has never broken 11 seconds before. This year, he suddenly reached 10 seconds 90. In the U.S. Championships, he even output 11 seconds continuously.
The ability within seconds. This means that he has multiple gun systems and can easily stabilize within 11 seconds."
"It's hard to say whether she is capable of 90 seconds in 10 seconds, or even within 90 seconds in 10 seconds."
"Just these two people are enough to cause a headache."
Yuan Guoqiang is even a little regretful, because in the sprint competition, you need to run directly to the final two hours after finishing the semi-finals. If you consume too much in the semi-finals, even if you successfully enter the finals, you will not be able to do it due to physical limitations.
What better performance?
Although entering the Olympic finals is already a huge leap, with Chen Juan's current ability, everyone still hopes that she can go further in the Olympics.
Su Shen listened and thought to himself: Madison is not only able to get within 11 seconds with multiple shots.
This girl is capable of running 80 seconds in 10 seconds.
And her season included the strongest shot of her career. As of 2012, it was at the London Olympics, and it was created in this final.
This ability is quite powerful.
If you ignore her or underestimate her because she is a long jumper, then you will definitely get a slap in the face.
"There is also a player from Cote d'Ivoire who is not weak. Although he has never broken 11 seconds before, he has already broken 11 seconds in this preliminaries. This sudden performance in the Olympics broke his career Pb.
Players are the most difficult to judge." Yuan Guoqiang flipped over and said: "And she also ran 0 wind speed for 11 seconds in this year's Diamond League. This is enough to show that given some wind, she should be able to run within 11 seconds.
"
"Including her, there are four people here who can enter 11 seconds. Not to mention the veteran who may be the strongest among them, Stewart. This Jamaican athlete has already run 10.75 seconds in 2009, which was the best result last year.
There are also 10 seconds of 87.”
"Including her, there are five players here who can beat 11 seconds."
"The rest of the players are similar to Sumal. Although they have not reached 11 seconds, they are still hovering around 11 seconds."
"Verena Sailor, this year she also pushed her Pb to 11.05 seconds."
"The one who is really weaker may be Lithuania's Lina. Even if she gave up her career in the preliminaries, with a best time of 11.19 seconds, it is nothing more than that and will not pose any threat."
"But even if we don't consider it, the next three people, Ajuan, your group can open 11 seconds, and you will have five in this season."
"There are even a few with higher Pb than you."
"I think you should just go for Xiao Q. It might be more than worth it to waste a lot of energy just for the top two."
Yuan Guoqiang This is also pertinent advice.
Just look at the lineup on paper.
Among these five people, Chen Juan is not ranked in the front. There are at least three or four who are equal to her PB.
In this environment, you want to strive for the top two to advance directly.
Probably not a particularly good choice.
When Su Shen wanted to talk at this time, he just wanted to point out that some people might not be in good condition, similar to his "talk therapy" with Hu Kai in 2008.
But who knew that the next second after Yuan Guoqiang finished speaking, Chen Juan, a girl who was half a year younger than Su Shen, opened her mouth and gave her own answer——
"No need, Director Yuan."
Chen Juan looked at this lineup and could still laugh. She said calmly: "I'll just fight for the top two."
"If you can't get through here."
"I don't think I have any chance of doing well in the finals."
"But you don't have an advantage on paper lineup..."
Before Yuan Guoqiang finished speaking, Su Shen answered this time: "Sister Juan, think about it. Even if you get good results in the semifinals and enter the finals, it is very likely that your physical fitness will also affect the finals."
"Well, I've already thought about it, Brother Tim."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "For this shot, just go for the top two."
"Perhaps as Director Yuan said, some of them still retain their strength, but..."
The corners of Chen Juan's mouth curled up slightly unconsciously, like a string of willow buds: "Why did I try my best in the preliminaries?"
"And the wind speed in London is so good this time. If I don't fight for it, who knows if there will be such a good opportunity in the next Olympics."
Hearing this, Su Shen also laughed.
He knew that Chen Juan must have also discovered the problem of wind speed in the Olympic Games.
And I also want to consciously use it here.
This is progress.
As long as she makes good use of it, Chen Juan will not have a chance to enter the finals, nor will she have a chance to rush to the front.
Because the so-called five players within 11 seconds...
Apart from Chen Juan, there are only two people who can really perform in this scene.
In other words, Stewart and Ahure didn't run very well in the semifinals. No one was able to open 11 seconds.
Look at it this way, in a real sense.
Chen Juan wants to break into the top two.
Get the big Q spot for direct promotion.
Just killing Madison or Okabare is enough.
In fact, Madison and Su Shen know that in the final, she ran the best time in her career, with a score of 10.85 seconds. This means that she was just running under pressure in the preliminaries and semi-finals.
You really made her anxious, and she easily broke 90 in 10 seconds for you to see.
Then what you really want to kill is actually your old rival, Okabare.
Because that's all she's capable of with this one shot.
The current Okabare does not have the ability to open 11 seconds with multiple shots. This is why she cannot open 11 seconds in the finals.
Compared to Madison, kill Okabare first.
That's the best way to advance.
This is also the important point that Su Shen has always arranged for the confrontation between Okabare and Chen Juan.
This is to prevent the two people from going head-to-head in this London Olympics.
Now it seems as expected.
"Brother Xiao Tian, do you think I can do it?" Chen Juan actually knew that asking at this time was just for psychological comfort, but she still wanted to ask.
Because of what came out of this man's mouth.
It has an inexplicable power to calm people's hearts.
"I think……"
"you can."
Su Shen smiled and said: "Perform yourself well and there will be no problem in the finals."
"Oh, there's one more thing, don't forget."
"What?" Chen Juan and Yuan Guoqiang both turned their heads back and looked at Su Shen.
"Don't run too fast in the semifinals."
"Save some energy."
"The final is the time to explode with all your strength."
Well.
Yuan Guoqiang:......
I bet what I said before was all in vain.
There are so many people who can open up 11 seconds, but you say you shouldn’t run too fast in the semifinals?
This encouragement is probably a bit too much.
Su Shen doesn't care what other people think now.
He only knew that there was light in Chen Juan's eyes.
