On August 22, 2008, the penultimate day of the Peking Olympic Games, Zhang Huasong will participate in the men's 400-meter semi-finals and the men's pole vault final. Fastest updates

There were 24 participants in the 400m semi-finals, divided into three groups, with the top two in each group and the two best finishers in each group qualifying.

At 9:50 a.m., the 400m semifinals officially began.

In the first group, the personal best was better than Zhang's, and the first seed on the surface, Jeremy Variner, the most outstanding 400m athlete after Michael Johnson, advanced to the final with a time of 43.95 seconds, and the other direct qualifier was from the Bahamas.

In the second group, Lashawn Merritt, also from the Stars and Stripes, made the first cut, and the other player who qualified directly was from France.

The third group is Zhang Huasong's group!

The Stars and Stripes have always held a monopoly in the men's 400m, and there is also a rider from the Stars and Stripes in the third group, named David Neville.

However, in the contrast of Zhang Huasong, David Neville's speed seems so slow.

At the end of the match, David Neville was pulled away by Zhang Huasong, who topped the group by a huge margin and advanced.

In the end, Zhang Huasong ran a time of 43.62 seconds, which was already better than his personal best of 43.73 seconds at the Golden League in Oslo, and much faster than Jeremy Varina's 43.95 seconds in the first group.

Although Jeremy Varina's personal best is still better than Zhang Huasong's, many people already vaguely feel that Zhang Huasong may have a better chance of winning the 400m final at the Peking Olympics!

It's really Zhang Huasong's previous performance that was too shocking!

Every event has broken records to win the championship, and people have to imagine that Zhang Huasong may also break the record in the 400 meters to win the championship!

After the 400-meter semi-finals, domestic and foreign media released that Zhang Huasong once again advanced to the men's 400-meter final with the first place in the semi-finals, and also released a preview of the men's pole vault final in the evening.

This is Zhang Huasong's 7th final, which can be regarded as entering a critical node!

Before the Beiping Olympics, Mark Spitz's 7 gold medals in a single Olympic Games at the 1972 Munich Olympics in Germany was a monument that people can only look up to.

Especially in the modern era when competition is becoming more and more fierce and training is becoming more and more professional, it is not easy for an athlete to train to the peak in a project and win an Olympic gold medal.

Therefore, Phelps surpassed Mark Spitz to win 8 gold medals, which is called a myth, causing more than 300 million viewers around the world to tune in to watch the live broadcast of the match where he surpassed Mark Spitz.

However, Mark Spitz's seven gold medals in a single Olympic Games is, after all, a record that has been held for more than 30 years, and it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Although the 7-gold record is now in the past, it is quite admirable who can equal Mark Spitz's record.

In particular, when Phelps won his seventh gold medal, he only broke the Olympic record, not the world record.

This left enough highlights for Zhang Huasong's final tonight and attracted more viewers to watch the live broadcast!

If Zhang Huasong can break the record again and win the 7th gold medal, it seems to show that Zhang Huasong is better than Phelps, not just bullying Phelps with 10 events, only 8 events!

In the expectation of countless people, night falls, and the men's pole vault final is about to begin!

Before the start of the competition, Zhang Huasong upgraded his pole vaulting skills.

Zhang's previous pole vault skill was 6m, while the men's pole vault world record was 6.15m set by Ukraine's Sergey Bubka on February 21, 1993.

So, in order to break the record, Zhang Huasong upgraded his skill to 6.2 meters.

Then, at 19:55 on August 22, 2008, the men's pole vault final of the Peking Olympics officially began.

The 12 finalists were drawn to determine the order of appearance, and Zhang Huasong drew the first one!

If it's any other player, it's a bit of pressure to be ranked first!

But Zhang Huasong, with more and more record-breaking championships, is now no longer nervous and nervous when he started to participate in competitions.

Anyway, no matter how many appearances he ranks, he won't let the championship go by!

Zhang Huasong's first appearance naturally aroused the cheers of the audience, and the hearts of the audience were lifted at the beginning of the game!

In the previous long jump, three-level long jump, and high jump finals, Zhang Huasong locked the championship in the first attempt and broke the world record in the second attempt.

In these three finals, Zhang Huasong broke the record and won the championship in all two attempts, which was shocking.

So, in the pole vault, will Zhang Huasong choose an unattainable height to lock in the championship on the first attempt, and then break the record on the second attempt?

This way of winning the championship is so domineering, Zhang Huasong's fans and many neutral viewers love it! Many media have actually made such predictions before the start of the game, and the audience is quite looking forward to it!

Then, when the first starting height chosen by Zhang Huasong was announced, the audience suddenly showed such a smile and applauded.

Zhang Huasong chose a starting height of 6 meters, which is higher than his personal best of 5.95 meters at the World Indoor Championships in Valencia.

The height of the gold medal in the last Olympics was also 5.95 meters.

If Zhang Huasong can skip the 6-meter mark, the chances of winning the championship are already quite high!

Zhang Huasong's choice was the same as everyone guessed, the starting height was to try to lock in the championship, and then the second was about to hit the record, which made the audience very excited and stared intently at Zhang Huasong's game.

The height of 6 meters is a difficult height for other competitors to achieve, but it is easy for Zhang Huasong's system skills of 6.2 meters.

The stability of the system skills made Zhang Huasong easily jump over a height of 6 meters on his first attempt.

Seeing that Zhang Huasong successfully crossed the 6-meter-high crossbar and fell onto the mat behind, but the crossbar was not taken down by Zhang Huasong, the scene suddenly resounded with warm applause and cheers.

Many fans of Zhang Huasong and Chinese people shouted Zhang Huasong's name, worshiping Zhang Huasong's feat of almost locking the championship with one first attempt.

Even spectators, reporters, coaches, and athletes from other countries were impressed by Zhang Huasong's ability to jump over the 6-meter mark in one attempt.

At this height, although it cannot be said that the championship is absolutely locked, the odds of winning the championship are quite high.

This gold medal in the men's pole vault has almost been taken by Zhang Huasong.
