Chapter 547 Im going to beat you upright this time!
Basically, the seeded players had a smooth first day of competition.
There is not much to say about the semi-finals, basically everyone advanced smoothly.
But at this time, an interesting "international incident" occurred——
Our former world champion and American flying star whose world record was canceled, Mr. Justin Gatlin, received a guest invitation from CNN.
When Gatlin heard this, he thought, "If you have money, why are you waiting? It hasn't been opened in a few years, so hurry up."
He is "flustered" even if he rests on his laurels every day.
But when I went there, I discovered that there was another person who had been invited, and this person was a fellow American sprinter who was more famous than him, Maurice Green.
Gatlin was actually a little depressed, because in front of Green, he was somewhat inferior, at most he was on an equal footing.
But he didn't want to think about it either.
This is a 60-meter indoor competition. If it really makes a big fuss, how can we not ask Green? His 60-meter is much more famous than Gatlin. After all, he is the first person in history to achieve PB in indoor competition. Just this name alone
The head is enough to scare people.
In TV shows, Americans typically start by beeping to warm up.
Moreover, the track and field competition is too short. If you don’t warm up and talk about something, the cost will be too high.
"So Justin, do you think Powell will win this time?" Female host Kelly is one of CNN's ace hosts. She can be called CNN's snake oil. She can basically talk about anything and can pick up any conversation.
"Yes, there is no doubt about Powell's strength. Except for our American track and field team, I don't think anyone can beat him now." After Gatlin finished speaking, Kelly asked: "But now the data shows that Su's PB is 60 meters.
History second.”
"6.40s means nothing." Gatlin said: "It's just that we didn't specialize in 60 meters before. If we did, 60 meters would definitely be in the hands of those of us who can run the fastest 100 meters. In fact, even if it is 6.39
s, I think Powell can also break easily. Look at several people, including me, who have 6.30 times in the 60-meter section. So you know, data doesn’t mean everything.”
When these words came out, Green was not happy.
Why is my record so easy?
Besides, the script he got today was originally intended to be a devil's advocate, otherwise, there would be nothing interesting about it.
That is not topical content that can increase eye-catching content.
You have to admit that although everyone says that "vomiting" is not a good idea, in fact it has been proven that "voicing" topics are easy to attract people to discuss and attract traffic. Therefore, whether it is a TV station or in the future,
The Internet oligarchs have tried and tested their methods time and time again. Even if there is no topic, they will ask the "50 Cent Party" to forcefully stir up some topics.
"I think Justin's words are still too one-sided." Maurice Green said: "I think that although the 60 meters and 100 meters are both extreme sprints, the running methods and rhythms are still slightly different. Justin has only run the 60 meters for two years.
meters, it’s still too little, and I have no experience. First of all, there is no wind in the indoor competition, so it’s not that you can’t watch the 60-meter section, but it depends on light wind or zero wind. Many people’s high-speed results are all different at a glance.
If the wind speed exceeds one meter outdoors, it cannot be that fast indoors."
"Second point, I think that although this Eastern boy's overall 100-meter performance is not that outstanding, his future is already qualified to compete with anyone in the world. 6.40s, to be honest, even my peak
I can’t say that I’m 100% sure of winning, but if it were Justin, I probably wouldn’t be able to outrun him now.”
It seems to be a joke, saying that Gatlin is now suspended and cannot compete, and his condition must have declined, but in fact...
How could it not be an irony?
You have to know that the American track and field team is never monolithic.
Gatlin looked at Green, his eyes flickered, and said, "Oh? Maurice, do you think that Eastern kid can beat the world record holder Asafa Powell?"
Green also has a tough character. If you put it that way, he refuses to bow his head. In terms of honor, he is no worse than Gatlin, and even has a slight surplus in total: "What I want to correct Justin is... Asafa is 100 meters long.
The world record holder, but he is not the 60-meter world record holder. The 60-meter world record is still in the United States."
This seems to be saying, you dominate me as the 60-meter record holder.
"So you support Su? Don't support Powell?" Gatlin stared at Green and said.
Green didn't give in at all. He looked over and said: "Yes, I think Su's 60m is no worse than anyone in the world now. He has this competitiveness, 6.40s, but not everyone can run it."
.”
"Okay, let's make a bet. I bet that Powell will win, and whoever loses will get the keyboard." Gatlin said aggressively: "How about it?"
"Haha, I remember you still owe Su a piece of keyboard, right?" Green suddenly poked Gatlin's "sore spot". The last time he had a big mouth, Su Shen slapped him hard with his strength. This is
The pain he always felt.
Now that Green mentioned it, he became a little "angry".
"It seems like you like to eat keyboards. Well, I'll play with you." Green said, "I still don't believe that Powell can definitely beat Su."
Although Green is angry and doesn't get along well with Gatlin, he is not stupid either. He actually knows very well...
For a person like Powell who rarely participates in indoor competitions, if he suddenly runs 60 meters, although his physical strength is definitely on the line, his sense of rhythm and comprehensive performance are definitely not as good as when he runs 100 meters. Because the body's subconscious and default allocation will not let him
He gets into his best form at 60 meters.
In addition, Powell's mentality is often broken, and he is known as "the originator of giving up." Together, Su Shen is not a sure loser.
The two people looked at each other and were about to "fight". The host Kelly seemed to wake up and interrupted the two of them: "Gentlemen, be a gentleman. With so many people watching, our CNN ratings
Not low."
"Well, since you two support different camps, let us prove it with reality."
"The semi-finals are about to begin, which may help us find the answer."
It will definitely be easy to advance to the semi-finals. Four shots are really boring these days, so it is not unreasonable to take three shots in the future. Because in the semi-finals, many seed players will definitely encounter them. For example, Su Shen's group is a typical example, and
It can be called...
Death group.
They were actually grouped together with Guy, Scott, and Andre Essien, who was competing again.
One of these four people is the champion of the IAAF World Championships in Moscow, one is the silver medalist in the World Athletics Finals, one is the current second best player in the world, and the other is the runner-up of the IAAF World Championships in Moscow. These four people alone are like gods fighting.
Secondly, some people also came in, such as Harry Aguinis Arrieti, World Championship gold medalist, World Championship bronze medalist, World Indoor Championship silver medalist, Kim Collins...
To be honest, every time our players "win the lottery" in the semi-finals so easily, sometimes even Yuan Guoqiang has to wonder if there is something "tricky" going on.
Otherwise, the sprinters in our flower gardening family must be too destined to be part of this "death group" of Lao Shizi.
Bolt and the others who were far away in Jamaica saw the specific names of the groups printed on the TV screen. Even Mills shook his head and said that Su Shen's luck was really bad. If this group wants to break out, it is bound to be consumed.
A lot of physical fitness, and this time the Birmingham Indoor Competition has been temporarily changed to four shots, so there will be no chance of only one shot in the final.
All these are a kind of "weakening" and "blow" in a different direction to Su Shen, who lacks the hard power of 100 meters.
Mills believes that after the competition, there are only a few hours to adjust before the finals begin. For the members of the "death group", it is really...
Too bad.
Sometimes there is a bit of "luck" in track and field. There is no way around it. In fact, many capable athletes have overworked themselves in the semi-finals, and in the end unfortunately missed the finals and medals. It can even be said that basically every year's competition,
This is more or less the case. If Su Shen was in another group, it might actually be easy to break through, but in this group, the pressure might be a bit too much.
Mills even deduced that Little Q would probably come out of this group.
After listening to Mills' analysis, Bolt turned to look at the TV and said silently in his heart -
Su, although Coach Mills is very good and rarely makes wrong predictions, but... I still believe you can create miracles.
After all, you are my friend, Usain Bolt.
Birmingham Indoors Live.
Su Shen had already said goodbye to Yuan Guoqiang and the others and entered the inspection area, which was filled with great masters from the third group.
Especially Scott, when he saw Su Shen coming in, he immediately shouted "God help me".
Last time he was blocked from the finals by Su Shen in the first round, so...
He also wants to get it back.
Let Su Shen also taste the feeling of being isolated from the finals.
Su Shencai is too lazy to pay attention to him. This kind of person will become more and more energetic the more you pay attention to him. Only by slapping him in the face with strength will he become honest.
Su Shen is in the fifth lane. Next to him is "old enemy" Leonard Scott and the other is Tyson Gay.
This grouping is really "hot".
The two "ten-breakers" from last year are standing next to him, and they are both American athletes. They seem to be making themselves a dumpling. You have to know that there were only six ten-breakers in 2006, and now both of them are.
Standing next to Su Shen.
This row of noodles is really...
That's enough.
Tianchao Sports Channel.
The familiar voice of Yang Jian came from inside, and he was explaining passionately: "Hello, audience friends, this is Tianchao Sports Channel. Welcome everyone to come back to watch the men's 60-meter semifinals of the Birmingham Indoor Championships."
"There were so many people registered for the Birmingham Indoor Games this time, so there were 4 shots in total. This is why Liu Xiang's team has finished the 60-meter sprint, and they are still in the semifinals."
After the explanation, Yang Jian immediately said: "Let me give you a brief introduction to this shot. Our young player Su Shen is in the fifth lane. His grade is pretty good. The players in this group are a little stronger."
"There are Gay, who ran 9.80 times several times last year, Leonard Scott, who is known as the 'Ten Breaker' and a promising runner, and Andre Essien, Su Shen's old rival, plus
Between Harry Agchinis Arrieti and Kim Collins, the competition for this group’s results is probably going to be quite fierce.”
"Yang Jian is right. The strength of the group this time is not optimistic. I counted several people and estimated that they can run away for 6.50 seconds! Even if this strong lineup is placed in the previous competitions of the 60-meter competition, no matter how big or small, it is still the best.
It's a luxurious lineup." Chen Haijian said: "I just hope that Su Shen can relax his mind, stabilize his rhythm, and not be disrupted by the two "ten-breakers" around him.
"It depends on Su Shen's own performance. We all hope that he can withstand this kind of pressure and show his performance in the previous three indoor matches."
"Yes, if Su Shen can show the state and competitive spirit of the previous stops, there is still hope of successfully breaking through." At this point, Chen Haijian actually has half a sentence left to say, that is...
Even if the breakout is successful, I'm afraid there will still be a lot of "loss".
I'm afraid it will be difficult when the finals come.
But now is not the time to talk about this. If you can't get out of the semi-finals, naturally you don't have to think about the finals.
Many domestic track and field fans shook their heads when they saw this grouping, and they all felt that Su Shen's grouping was too bad.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After running four indoor competitions, he was actually divided into two "death groups". He really forced Su Shen to be the "god of death in the death group".
Su Shen felt the change in the surrounding atmosphere. He had to say that Birmingham was indeed a wonderful site.
There have been many wonderful indoor duels in this place.
but……
Su Shen knew that since he had gradually recovered his super-prospective ability, it was estimated that...
All super showdowns in this place in the future will be related to me.
Touching the newly renovated venue and new runway in Birmingham, Su Shen only felt...
Um.
These evil capitalists have finally done some "good things". This kind of runway is obviously easier to succeed than the domestic one.
Su Shen stood in front of his starting block. He had just finished adjusting when a voice came from beside him.
Su Shen knew who it was without even looking back.
"China Su, I didn't expect to meet you in the semi-finals this time. It is indeed God's blessing." Leonard Scott smiled fiercely and said: "Don't wait until you are blasted by my powerful activation!
After all, I have been practicing hard all winter for today."
"It won't be fun if you get out too early."
Su Shen glanced at him, paused, and then said, "I kindly remind you."
"Don't compete with me. Don't be stupid."
"What did you say?" Scott said angrily.
"Because I want it this time."
"I'll blow you up in a dignified way."
After Su Shen said this, not to mention Scott, even Guy next to him was a little stunned.
These words...
It was actually said by an Oriental boy who was not yet eighteen years old.
Simply.
A bit domineering.
Scott's future is promising.
Even if it’s yourself.
I don’t dare to say this either.
PS: Work overtime and try to break out tomorrow!!! Woohoo~~~~~~~
