Chapter 156: Tang Hao, who is that?

In the 100 meters ahead, Tang Hao did not rush like the championship because he had to carry out the 4X100m relay preliminaries in the afternoon. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In contrast, Tunisian Merori was a striking performer, leading the way from the start of the first place and opening up half a gap to second place.

Tang Hao threw the fourth place in the group at this time.

"This Merori is really strong, and it looks like he will end up in the top five finalists!"

Sun Yang was still on the scene at this time, and I don't know if he will make tactical adjustments to the finals in the evening after seeing the state of this player. ”

Tang Hao is still trying to catch up, and it is very promising to enter the finals in the evening. ”

"It's hard to say, the performance of the players in this competition is quite good, even Park Tae-hwan is now only ranked 5th among all the players, although Tang Hao has performed well in the championship before, but the swimmer's performance is very good, and today he doesn't seem to be in the best condition. ”

After the game started, the commentators on the sidelines also discussed the form on the field.

"Come on!"

Seeing Tang Hao in a backward position, the audience who supported him on the sidelines couldn't help but cheer for him loudly.

In the pool, Tang Hao is swimming in the most labor-saving way at this time, his water frequency is significantly less than others 4 times, this water frequency is generally only used in the 800-meter race, but with the power of the white stripes in the waves, he still maintains the distance between him and other players, and is even slowly catching up.

Hearing the crowd cheering for him, he began to increase the frequency of his water after turning around after 200 meters, from 4 to the normal 6.

The effect of this change is quite obvious, and when the audience can see it, Tang Hao began to catch up.

"Tang Hao is accelerating! It seems that he is retaining his physical strength in the first half!" The commentator on the sidelines said excitedly, although he had some doubts about Tang Hao's performance before, but after seeing Tang Hao accelerate, he still seemed very excited.

"He overtook third Australian John Williams!"

"He's still accelerating, he's overtaken second Canadian George Wells!"

"He's chasing the last opponent in the group, Merori! Oh my God!" As Tang Hao surpassed his opponents one by one, the commentator was climaxing one after another.

"It seems that our Tang Hao played a psychological war with his opponent, not only deceived the opponent, but even we were deceived. The commentator also laughed at this time.

Tang Hao in the pool also seemed very excited at this time, not because he had overtaken his opponents one after another during this time, but because after such a period of time, he found that his level had made a qualitative leap from the championship.

Originally, he chose to upgrade the power of the white stripes in the waves in order to better grasp the frequency of 9 water strokes, but after the upgrade, his water skiing distance and physical fitness have been greatly improved, and at this time, even if it is the same 6 water strokes as others, it feels much easier.

Merori led the first 250 meters, and when he turned his head, he was surprised to find that the runner across the road from him had caught up with him.

And when he turned around at 300 meters, he found that the runner was Chinese, and the surprise in his heart was even stronger.

There are very few well-known swimmers in China, and the freestyle is even less pitiful, if you have to talk about it, Sun Yang, who likes to play in the backcourt, is one of the best, which is also the only opponent Merori cares about, in fact, he doesn't know the name of the Chinese player who is chasing him little by little.

But after feeling the threat, he chose to start accelerating in advance, and the frequency of water was significantly faster.

In the last 100 meters, Merori tried his best, and finally led Tang Hao to touch the wall with one hand, and after touching the wall, the whole person almost collapsed directly in the pool.

Tang Hao was not red and his heart was not beating, and when he turned around in the last 50 meters, he already knew that he had won the final place in the evening in advance, so he chose to retain his strength.

Wait until the player's results are displayed on the display.

Merori finished fourth in 3:45.11 as the race was over.

Tang Hao's time was 3:45.31, ranking fifth among all the players.

Counting Sun Yang, who was the first in the preliminaries, in this way, the 400-meter freestyle has two Chinese athletes who broke into the final in the evening together.

Such a result also made the audience look forward to the evening game.

The swimming competition schedule was packed with a tight schedule at 12:30 p.m., followed by the 4x100m freestyle heats.

There are two groups in the preliminary round, and the top four groups advance to the finals.

This time in the 100-meter relay, the Chinese team sent the best quartet at the moment, Ning Zetao, Lu Zhibin, Sun Yang and Tang Hao.

In the end, with the excellent performance of Sun Yang and Tang Hao in the second half, the Chinese team ranked fourth in the group and advanced to the final in the evening with an overall score of 7th.

Because the women's 400 and 4x100 freestyle did not make it to the finals, the men's two events are in the spotlight.

Different from the relatively dull situation of the game during the day, at night, the atmosphere in the whole stadium has changed a lot, the biggest difference is the media, the media from various countries came to the stadium early, and all kinds of broadcasts were also in place for the first time.

There is only one reason for this apparent change, as the final in the evening will result in four gold medals on the first day of competition.

The Chinese media was also very excited at this time, because the first final in the evening was the 400m freestyle, which was the Chinese team's biggest hope for a sprint medal or even a gold medal.

Because the competition ended early in the afternoon, many players went to the pool early to get used to the venue.

It wasn't until an hour before the game that they came up from the pool.

This was the last chance for pre-match media interviews, and as soon as the players came up, the media flocked to them.

Germany's Paul Biedermann, the world record holder in the 400m freestyle, was the first to go ashore, and as soon as he got up, he was surrounded by reporters.

"Paul, how do you feel that you will be greeted with a double bag from Park Tae-hwan and Sun Yang tonight?" asked the first Chinese reporter to seize the advantageous position.

"Sun played very well in the preliminaries this morning, Park played average in the morning, but in the final he will definitely play well, but no matter who the opponent is, my goal is the same as before I came here, for this gold medal. Biederman seems to enjoy the spotlight as well, laughing.

"Do you have any impression of another Chinese athlete Ri Tian, who beat Sun Yang in the recent championship and swam 3 minutes and 45 seconds in the preliminaries. Another Chinese reporter asked.

"Jesus (Jesus is the same word as Ritian)?" Biederman looked dazed.

"Day and day. The reporter emphasized again, and seeing that Biddleman still didn't react, he finally spoke, "Tang Hao." ”

"Tang Hao?" Biederman shook his head, "Who is that?" (To be continued.) )
