Chapter 341: 100 meters and 200 meters

"Friends from the audience, this is Su Feng. Even at the World Championships and in the preliminaries, it is difficult to meet his opponents.

The second group of athletes below has begun to enter. This group includes another famous player from my country, Zhang Peimeng. With his strength, it should not be a problem to enter the semi-finals."

As he said that, Su Feng and others had already exited, while Zhang Peimeng and seven other people had already entered the runway.

The famous player in Zhang Peimeng's group is Tyson Gay, but apart from him, the remaining players are inferior to Zhang Peimeng. As long as they perform normally, entering the semi-finals will not be a problem.

The result was the same. Tyson Gay took first place with a time of 10.01 seconds, and Zhang Peimeng ranked second with a time of 10.04 seconds.

Immediately, groups of players came on stage, and Gatlin and other famous players were promoted without exception.

In the seventh group, Su Bingtian came on stage.

The star player in his group is Carter from Jamaica.

Carter was once again led astray by Su Bingtian's fast pace and ability in the first half, and finally won the first place with a time of 9.96 seconds, while Su Bingtian ranked second with a time of 9.99 seconds.

Because of Su Bingtian's leadership, the performance of this seventh group was generally better than the first five groups, second only to Su Feng's first group.

However, Su Feng didn't do it deliberately. In fact, he had already held back the time of 9.92 seconds and ran, and let it go for a full 20 meters. Any more would not be appropriate.

Then the eighth group of games ended, and Blake, as the seed player, also successfully advanced.

In the ninth group, as soon as Bolt appeared on the stage, he almost enjoyed the same treatment as Su Feng, and overwhelming cheers swept over him.

And Bolt lived up to expectations, running 9.90 seconds, the highest time in the preliminaries, to advance to the semi-finals.

August 11, 7:45 pm, Luzhniki Stadium.

In Moscow, even summer nights seem a bit too cool.

But at this time, the atmosphere in the stadium was extremely hot.

After all, the men's 200m preliminaries, one of the highlights of this competition, are about to begin.

The two superstars Su Feng and Usain Bolt, as well as top players such as Gatlin Powell, will appear again and once again stage a feast of speed. How can this not make the audience excited?

"Come on!" At the entrance of the corridor, Su Feng patted Chen Zhilong's shoulder and then stepped back. As for Zhang Paimeng next to him, Su Feng was too lazy to say anything.

This time the Chinese team competed in the 200 meters.

As one of China's top three athletes, Su Bingtian gave up the 200-meter race in order to hit the 100-meter race with all his strength.

Moreover, he rarely ran 200 meters during competitions, so he was not qualified.

On the other hand, Chen Zhilong, who used to be the top player of the Chinese team, was second only to Su Feng in speed before Zhang Peimeng and others got up, and could only rush and bump into each other.

Under the influence of so many years of relay, my strength in the 200-meter curve has greatly increased. This time I unexpectedly ran an A-standard result in the World Championships and qualified for the competition.

A total of 56 people from all over the world participated in this 200-meter race.

Divided into 7 groups of 8 people each, the top three will advance to the semi-finals.

In addition to Zhang Peimeng, Chen Zhilong's group also includes Mitchell from the US team and the famous Tyson Gay.

Su Feng remembered that Mitchell was the third runner-up in the 200 meters at the World Championships.

Chen Zhilong's situation is not optimistic.

The final result was not beyond Su Feng's expectation.

Tyson Gay, Mitchell and Zhang Peimeng qualified, while Chen Zhilong ranked sixth and failed to advance.

"In this competition, Chen Zhilong, a meritorious veteran of the Chinese relay team, has tried his best. It can be said that it is an honor to lose. I think back then, the Chinese team did not even have the A standard in the 200 meters.

Up to now, some athletes have begun to strategically abandon the 200-meter race. The strength of my country's track and field is indeed improving rapidly.

At the same time, we congratulate Zhang Peimeng for becoming the first athlete besides Su Feng to advance to the semi-finals in the men's 100m and 200m World Championships."

After the game between Zhang Peimeng and Chen Zhilong, Su Feng appeared in the third group.

There was still the same huge cheers as always.

As the absolute seed, Su Feng finally finished first in the group with a time of 19.99 seconds, the first to break 20 in the 200m preliminaries.

The second place in the group was 20.15 seconds, and the gap can be imagined.

Subsequently, Bolt appeared in the fifth group.

Maybe it was due to the distance between him and Su Feng, or maybe it was the excitement of the cheering from the audience.

Bolt immediately set off the competition by running a time of 19.80 seconds in the preliminaries, and was also scheduled to take first place in the 200-meter preliminaries.

After the 100-meter and 200-meter preliminaries on this day, there were basically no upsets, and all the popular seeded athletes qualified.

On the other hand, the Jamaican player Will did not fall behind in the competition with Powell, which made people shine.

On the morning of August 12, Su Feng did not have a game. In addition to training, he did learn some news about the Chinese team.

The women's 1500 meters and 5000 meters failed one after another.

Men's pole vault and long jump were also eliminated.

So far, the Chinese team still has zero medals.

Such a result, even if the Chinese team still had players like Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang who did not compete in the finals, it made the entire team feel anxious.

After all, it goes without saying that the two of them are strong, but the sprint event has too many variables, and both of them have their own strong opponents. Whether they can win the gold is still unknown.

The tension in the overall atmosphere made Su Feng and Liu Yuxiang a little nervous.

"I just said, I would rather participate in the Olympics than the World Championships. The pressure is too much." On the track, Liu Yuxiang complained to Su Feng after finishing a set of 110-meter hurdles.

When the Olympics come, this guy will say the opposite again.

The World Athletics Championships have less influence than the Olympic Games, but the Chinese team does not have many advantageous events, and there are too many expectations for the two.

In the Olympic Games, although the Chinese team has traditional advantageous events such as table tennis, the event itself has greater influence and naturally greater pressure.

In fact, neither of the two competitions was easy for them. Liu Yuxiang's complaints were just useless.

"Hey, where are you going?" Before Liu Yuxiang finished speaking, Su Feng rolled his eyes and turned around to leave. Liu Yuxiang, who had been holding back his words, suddenly felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense. I originally wanted to find some positive energy, but it seems you can't find it here. I'd better go back to training." Su Feng waved his hand and walked towards the place where he was training, leaving only

Give Liu Yuxiang a back view.

August 12 at 2:30 pm.

Men's 100m semi-finals.

Su Feng was assigned to the first group, and Zhang Paimeng was also there.

Also in the first group was Gatlin.

Seeing this grouping, Su Feng knew that Zhang Peimeng's promotion was not optimistic, and was even basically impossible.

Among the top two, including himself, Zhang Peimeng has no chance of winning.

However, for the current Zhang Paimeng, it is still possible to compete with Gatlin. After all, he is now among the top 20 in the world.

After the game started, it turned out to be a performance by Su Feng, Gatlin and Zhang Peimeng.

In the first thirty meters, only Gatlin and Zhang Peimeng could follow Su Feng firmly.

Thirty meters later, Su Feng started to accelerate on the way, and his absolute strength began to show.

The first to fall behind was Zhang Paimeng.

And Gatlin could no longer keep up with Su Feng when he was more than fifty meters away.

When Su Feng's speed reached its peak at more than sixty meters, the distance between the three people began to widen at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This extreme speed performance also made the knowledgeable audience at the scene start shouting with excitement!

In this world, there are only two people who can start to pull away from the Olympic champion Gatlin at 60 meters, and determine the outcome.

The speed performance of an Olympic champion playing a supporting role is something rarely seen in many years.

Some people have even predicted that after Su Feng and Bolt retire, it may be difficult to see this kind of scene in person again.

Considering that every athlete only has a limited career lifespan, watching such a peak competition is really a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

This time, because of Gatlin, Su Feng couldn't win as easily as he did in the preliminaries.

It wasn't until the last ten meters left that Su Feng began to relax a little and stopped sprinting at top speed. Although he was caught up a little by Gatlin, he still won the rematch in first place.

At the scene, after Su Feng and Gatlin crossed the line one after another, warm applause broke out.

This game is undoubtedly one of the most exciting games since the start of the World Championships and deserves the heartfelt applause of the audience.
