On the morning of August 15, Yidun had two events, namely the men's shot put qualifiers and the men's hammer qualifiers.

Among them, the men's shot put qualifiers started at 9:05, and Yi Dun went to the game inspection office at 8:40.

According to the previous order book, there were a total of 45 athletes participating in this men's shot put qualifying match.

But three athletes were directly disqualified. The reason is naturally because the pre-match stimulant test failed.

For events of the Olympic level, doping testing is extremely strict, with pre-match testing and post-match testing. The three players who were disqualified did not pass the pre-match testing.

There are three contestants, one of them is Russian, and the other two are Belarusian.

What is more embarrassing is that the strength of these three people is the most optimistic about winning gold before the game.

Without such three powerful competitors, many participating athletes are naturally happy.

I'm afraid even the remaining two Russian players and the only Belarusian players will not have any grief...

The 45 contestants were divided into two qualification groups, and Yi Dun was divided into Group B.

Because the shot put game requires a relatively small field, the game can be started at the same time, and there is no need to stagger the time like the hammer.

"Dear audience, welcome to watch today's men's shot put group qualifying match. In this game, our Chinese Olympic athlete Yi Dun will represent the Chinese team."

"We invited coach Li Meisu, the national team's shot put coach, to explain this shot put game to us." The CCTV host introduced Coach Li Meisu next to him before the game started.

"Guide Li, since Yi Dun joined the national team, he has been following you in training. How do you evaluate Yi Dun's current competitive state?" the host asked.

"Yidun, a young athlete, is to describe it in one sentence, that is, he is always ready. His competitive state will always remain at the peak. He is one of the hardest and most talented shot put players I have ever seen." Li Meisu praised Yidun with a smile.

"Do you think Yi Dun has a great chance of qualifying for today's qualifying match?" the host asked again.

"It must be no big problem. Yi Dun is very skilled in his current skills and tactics. It is unlikely that all three trial shots will fail, and he can also make stable results. It is definitely not a problem for the qualifying competition." Coach Li Meisu said confidently.

She is very confident about Yi Dun. Although she thinks Yi Dun has little hope of winning the gold medal, at least there is no problem in qualifying for this qualifying match.

"Okay, we have noticed that the Yidun draw has ended and the game is about to officially begin. Let's wait and see if Yidun's performance is in sight. I hope Yidun can achieve good results."

...

In the shot put field, Yi Dun looked at his signing position and was full of confusion. The No. 14 draw was another evil signing position.

However, this signing position is actually very good. It is not up or down, and it is very suitable for athletes to show their best strength.

Because it is a qualifying competition, athletes will definitely retain some strength. The thirteen players in front of Yi Dun had the first trial shot, and only one of them passed the qualifying standards.

Yi Dun noticed that this man was an American athlete named Adam Nelson, who was quite strong and his personal best record was far higher than Yi Dun's personal record.

According to pre-match predictions, Adam Nelson is the player with the greatest chance of winning the championship.

With this first shot surpassing the score, Adam Nelson actually had no need to try the shot next.

The purpose of the qualifying match is to get the qualification for the finals. Now that he has obtained all the qualifications, there is naturally no need to continue to invest.

This also shows the cruelty of track and field events.

It is already extremely difficult to meet the Olympic standards, but there is still a qualifying match.

Shot put, if you are not strong enough, even if you get the Olympic qualification, you will definitely not have the chance to enter the finals and can only mix in the qualifying round.

Yi Dun naturally has no worries about this. His shot put strength is enough to ensure a steady entry into the finals.

Soon, it was Yi Dun, who was the 14th pick, to appear.

Yi Dun took a deep breath and the result of this shot was even better than that of Adam Nelson.

Of course, this certainly does not mean that Yi Dun is stronger than Adam Nelson.

With a test shot, Yi Dun was directly qualified for the final, just like Adam Nelson.

The CCTV commentary room was filled with laughter.

"It seems that Coach Lee has a deep understanding of Yi Dun. Yi Dun currently ranks first in the qualifying tournament group and has already steadily qualified for the finals. Here we wish Yi Dun can continue to work hard in the finals and get good results." The host said with a smile.

"Guide Li, why don't you help us predict the prospects of the Yidun final?"

Li Meisu nodded, "We all know that Yi Dun has a strong strength in the decathlon event and is the first athlete in mankind to break through the 9100-point mark. However, Yi Dun's strength in shot put is not as good as that of the decathlon."

"I predict that Yi Dun will win at least one medal in the men's shot put final this time, breaking the history of the Chinese men's shot put Olympics without a card."

This was not because Li Meisu put a gild on Yi Dun's face, but that she really thought so.

Since the end of the last National Track and Field Grand Prix, Yi Dun's shot put strength has improved again, and Li Meisu must be impossible not to know.

According to Yi Dun's current extreme results and the men's shot put card scores in the Olympic Games, Yi Dun has a good chance to win medals.

"Okay, then let's borrow Ji Yan from Guidance Li, let's wait and see, and wait for Yi Dun to help us achieve a men's shot put zero breakthrough!"

...

Although it is only a qualifying match, the audience is still interested in watching it. Before, because the men's shot put in China was relatively weak, there was not much attention paid to men's shot put in China.

Now, due to Yi Dun, many people have watched a shot put game in full and found that the shot puts of this group of super strongmen are quite objectionable.

By the end of the qualifying round, the best results of the two teams were Polish player Tomash Mayevsky, who scored, and Yidun ranked second in all players.

As for Adam Nelson, he ranks third after Yidun.

Among the more than 40 contestants, a total of six of them have scored more than one result, and the remaining six places are added in sequence according to the results of everyone.
