Regarding Su Rui's achievements today, it can be regarded as a historic moment.

If it weren't for him breaking Sun Yan's three-year Asian record in today's competition, it is very likely that this Asian record has not changed for three years, but in the next few years, it may be difficult for any athlete to break this Asian record.

Even if you include Sun Yan, the Asian record setter, it is also difficult to break this Asian record set in three years.

Because, in the men's swimming 400-meter freestyle, Asian swimmers have not shown this potential at present, and even Sun Yan himself has not performed very well in this event, and has not been able to reach the best condition, and it is impossible to break this Asian record, let alone other swimmers.

So, if it weren't for Su Rui setting a new Asian record today, the Asian record for the men's 400m freestyle swimming might have remained unchanged for more than six years.

It's just that, from this point of view, Sun Yan is indeed very strong, the Asian record created three years ago has not been broken by anyone, and this is not his best advantage project, even if it is not the best project, he can still do this level, and he is worthy of being the first person in the national swimming world.

Therefore, when Su Rui set a new Asian record with a time of 3:40.08, everyone was shocked.

You must know that the difference between the Asian record and the world record in the men's swimming 400m freestyle is not too big, only a very small gap.

The men's 400m freestyle record was set by a German athlete at the 2009 Rome Perfection Swimming Championships with a time of 3:40.07, which has been held since 2009.

The record of 3:40.07 is not much different from the 3:40.14 set by Sun Yan in 2012, and the difference is only 0.14 seconds, which is an extremely small result.

Perhaps, if Sun Yan had specialized in the 400-meter freestyle before, he might have been able to break the record.

And now, Su Rui, who broke the Asian record held by Sun Yan, has a score of 3:40.08, which is 0.01 seconds slower than 3:40.07, and the gap is even smaller, and the time to blink may be more than 0.01 seconds.

Therefore, Su Rui's 3:40.08 is indeed a very good result.

The most important thing is that he is still on the rise, everyone knows that he has not been in swimming for long, as long as he persists, there will definitely be progress in the future, that is, he will create even better results than this in the future, at least 0.01 seconds better, there is no problem at all, which means that he has the hope of breaking this record in the future, which is the most exciting thing.

Therefore, when the results were announced, the scene suddenly boiled, and the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than before.

When sitting in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast, when they heard the host say that Su Rui's score was only 0.01 seconds slower than the Zhenjie record, the audience couldn't help but shout, and some people jumped with excitement.

Although Su Rui has not broken the record now, his time, which is only 0.01 seconds slower than the Asian record, is actually the best time in the world now, the best result since 2009. The host in front of the camera said.

Indeed, after the 2009 Rome Perfection Swimming Championships, the German set a record of 3:40.07, and no one else swam better in the 400m freestyle, not even the German himself, who has not reached 3:40.07 since setting this record.

In a sense, Su Rui's current results are already the best in the world, and he is the most powerful athlete in the current 400-meter freestyle.

Because of this, his result is very significant, not just a victory and a gold medal, but also represents the strongest athlete in the 400m freestyle event, which is a sign that he is expected to break the record.

For this achievement, Su Rui didn't have much reaction at the beginning.

Because, he believes that he can do this result, 3:40.08, he has long been sure that he can do it, how can he be surprised, the only thing that surprised him is that he won Sun Yan.

Before this, Su Rui had already won a lot of good results, but these results did not make him as excited as winning Sun Yan.

Although he has always been very confident in his ability and thinks that he can surpass Sun Yan, but at this moment, he is still excited, and he can't help but feel incredible, making it difficult for him to digest this result.

In the Zhenguo swimming world, Sun Yan's achievements are too dazzling, Zhenjie's swimming project is the second in history, and freestyle is the first person in history, this unprecedented achievement will always make people have a kind of difficult to surpass, even unsurpassable psychology, thinking that Sun Yan is an opponent who is impossible to defeat, impossible to reach the height he has reached.

And Su Rui thought like this before, even if the 400-meter freestyle is not Sun Yan's best advantage event, but in this event, winning Sun Yan still makes him feel excited, and it is hard to believe that this is true, even if this result is made by him, it is still unbelievable.

Because of this, he was not too surprised to break the Asian record, but only shocked that he could beat Sun Yan, which is what he really felt pleasantly surprised.

Of course, when Su Rui later knew that his result was only 0.01 seconds behind the current record, he was a little regretful.

This regret comes from the fact that he could have broken the record and made better results, but he didn't do it, which is why there is regret, not because his strength can't do this, but because he didn't do it, so he will have regrets.

If he can't break the record because he can't reach it, Su Rui has nothing to say, at most, he will just work harder in the future and strive to break this record, but now he didn't do it because he has the strength, this is a completely different concept, and it is normal to have a little regret.

If Su Rui goes all out, there is indeed hope to break this record.

Because, this time of 3:40.08 is not his limit, he can still do better, but he didn't do it.
