Chapter 1019: The Peak Turns Around
In the individual medley, which stroke can stand out?
Su Rui didn't know about this question, even so many professionals had not yet achieved results, and it was even more impossible for him to have an answer.
However, for him, if he doesn't know what swimming style to get a better result in the individual medley, then what he will do is to be good at all swimming strokes, then he can ensure that he will not lose.
In the individual medley, Su Rui is no stranger, he has also participated in this kind of competition before.
In fact, Ye Wenxiang's good at the event is also the individual medley, and the achievements she has achieved are all brought about by the individual medley, leaving a mark on the history of the individual medley.
If Ye Wenxiang's results do not regress and still maintain her previous results, then she will be the most dazzling presence and the most intense stroke in the individual medley.
It's a pity that Ye Wenxiang fell from the Temple of Heaven for various reasons.
However, Su Rui believes that Ye Wenxiang can get up, she will stand taller, even higher than before, her current age is confidence, and her young age means that anything is possible, and she will not be able to fall down.
He believes that Ye Wenxiang can create another glory in the individual medley, and he also believes that he can achieve good results in the individual medley.
Since this 200-meter individual medley is the last final Su Rui will participate in today, after this competition, he will not have to compete again today.
In this way, in this final, he can no longer have reservations, but can break out with all his might.
In fact, Su Rui did the same in the final.
In the first three swimming styles, his performance is not bad, but he is not the most dazzling, he is considered to be in the upper middle level.
Originally, everyone was full of expectations for Su Rui, in the first three finals, he won the championship strongly, won three gold medals, and created an incredible miracle, everyone naturally hoped that he could create another miracle in today's last final, win the championship again, and get four gold medals in one day.
In the first three finals, his performance was amazing, and everyone was full of confidence in him.
As a result, almost everyone thinks that Su Rui will perform very well in the 200m individual medley final and will not disappoint everyone.
It's just that after the start of the game, his performance was not bad, but it also did not meet everyone's expectations.
At the beginning, everyone thought that Su Rui would lead all the way and then win the championship, but after the game started, it was discovered that he had not achieved this level.
In the first stroke, that is, the butterfly, Su Rui did not lead all the way, but only maintained the second position.
Of course, the second place is not bad, and it is also possible that the latecomer will prevail and successfully surpass the first place, which is not impossible, and everyone has not completely lost hope, or thinks that he can win.
But after 50 meters, after completing the butterfly, the athlete also switched to the backstroke.
And Su Rui is the same, but in this backstroke, not only did he not surpass the opponent in front of him as everyone expected, but fell behind a little and came to the third place, and he was getting farther and farther away from winning the championship.
In the third stroke, the breaststroke, he performed the same, even if he did not fall behind again, but he did not advance, and he was still in third place.
So, when everyone saw this situation, they couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
It's just that everyone is a little disappointed, but they don't think that Su Rui did a bad job, even if he can't win the championship, everyone can still understand him.
After all, before the 200m individual medley, he had already competed in three finals in a row, winning one after another.
In this level of competition, everyone knows how physically demanding and energetic it is, and one final is enough to make people tired enough, not to mention participating in three finals in a row, which is a great test of physical strength, and most athletes can't support such a big consumption.
And Su Rui not only participated in three finals in a row, but also won the championship, but everyone knows that his consumption is very large.
In this case, his state will inevitably decline, even if the level is high, but without the support of physical strength, it is difficult to play a good result, then in today's fourth final, he can't win the championship, not too good performance, in fact, it is normal.
Because of this, everyone can be considerate of Su Rui, even if he will be disappointed because he can't win the championship, but he will not blame him for it.
For everyone, his performance was good enough, so good that everyone had nothing to say, even if he didn't win the individual medley, it was nothing, at least it didn't affect him, he did very well.
It's just that Su Rui really can't win the championship?
In the first three strokes, his performance was indeed not the best, but he did not lag too far behind the other athletes, and he still followed the second place closely, and was not too far from the first place.
In other words, Su Rui can still catch up with the two opponents in front of him, even if he is behind now, there is still hope to do it.
Sure enough, in the fourth and final stroke, freestyle, he began to prove his strength to everyone.
In the freestyle, Su Rui only used only ten meters to catch up with the second place, and successfully surpassed it, so that he could replace it.
Then, he used a distance of 10 meters to catch up with the first place, and in the next 10 meters, he successfully left the runner behind.
This means that in the last twenty meters, Su Rui is already in the lead, and it is still an absolute lead, and the opponents behind have no chance to catch up with him again, but the distance between them is getting bigger and bigger.
In fact, although he is behind in the first three swimming styles, it does not mean that he is inferior to others.
The main reason is that Su Rui prefers freestyle, so he wants to save his physical strength until the end before exploding, and he will lag behind others in the first three swimming styles, if he adopts a balanced strategy, then in the four swimming styles, he can lead all the way, which is no longer in doubt.
It's just that he prefers freestyle and prefers to burst out with all his might when he is not restrained, which is more interesting.
Because of this, in this 200-meter individual medley, there will be such a change of peaks and turns, so that everyone from full of hope to disappointment, and from disappointment, suddenly surprised, ups and downs, let everyone experience an extremely wonderful game, but also amazed by his performance.
