Chapter 201: The Bronze Medal Arrives (If the Covenant Alliance Adds 9)

The schedule ends on August 16, and on the 17th, Eden will usher in the second final event, which is the hammer throw final.

At around 6:50 p.m., Yi Dun finished checking in and waited for 20 minutes to officially start the hammer throw final.

There were 12 contestants, including three Asians, namely China's Eden, Japan's Hiroshi Murofushi and Tajikistan's Zanalov.

The remaining nine players are all from Europe and the United States, and the strange thing is that there are no American players participating in this hammer throw.

Although Eden won Hiroharu Murofushi at the Osaka Grand Prix last time, the Osaka Grand Prix is certainly not a level event from the Olympics.

In the Osaka Grand Prix, after removing Edom, the strongest is Hiroharu Murofushi.

And the current strength of Hiroharu Murofushi is not outstanding in this Olympic Games.

Therefore, winning Hiroharu Murofushi does not mean that Yi Dun will be able to win a medal 100%.

One of the advantages of EDUN is that it never sets its own tone too high.

Of course, this is not entirely an advantage, and sometimes, it is better for people to be more ambitious.

Hiroshi Murofushi was in a complicated mood, and he didn't pay attention to Yi Dun, when it came to the stage of the Olympic Games, who still had the heart to tear up, they were all focused on the gold medal.

Yi Dun is the same, looking at the players around him, thinking about whether he has a chance to win a medal today.

At the end of the draw, Eden drew the eighth pick, a pretty good position.

That room Fu Guangzhi was not very lucky, and he directly drew the No. 1 lottery and was the first to appear.

Of the twelve, three of them broke the 84-metre record by career, with Hiroharu Murofushi being one and two Belarusians.

There were two other people in the back who recorded more than 83 meters, one Polish and the other Finn.

Eden's personal record is 81.47m at the Osaka Grand Prix, which is among the 12 competitors, which belongs to the level of not slipping, neither up nor down.

However, even if Yi Dun's personal record is not slipping, it does not mean that he can only get a mid-slip result in this hammer throw.

Take Hiroshi Murofushi as an example, his personal record naturally wants to beat Yi Dun, but now his strength is not as good as Yi Dun.

There must be some situations like Hiroharu Murofushi, so Yi Dun feels that even if he doesn't win a medal, he won't fall out of the top five.

……

The result of Hiroharu Murofushi's first throw came out, only 79.47 meters, which is certainly not very bad, but counting on this result, there is definitely no chance of winning a medal.

The next few competitors took on the pitch in turn, and the best Slovak runner threw 80.75m.

Yi Dun played the eighth game, and the first throw was 80.28 meters, which made Yi Dun shake his head dissatisfied.

But when all the players finished their first throws, Yi Dun had a smile on his face.

His poor score of 80.28 meters temporarily ranked second, except for himself and the Slovak athletes, no other player has scored more than 80 ......

There were two people who made mistakes and did not score, and the player who had the result, the weakest Tajikistani player, actually threw a score of 72.97 meters, which was quite embarrassing.

The first throw is temporarily ranked second, which must be a good sign, and Yi Dun wondered if the performance of today's hammer throw players would be as bad as the shot put game last night, and if so, he might be able to score another silver medal.

However, the next second throw directly poured cold water on Yi Dun.

The Slovak player threw a direct throw of 82.02 meters, which is already 100% able to help him win a medal.

Slovakia and the Czech Republic used to be a country, and it was a socialist country, but then it was divided, and the Czech Republic had a population of 10 million, and Slovakia was even smaller, with a population of only five or six million.

The population is not as large as Songyang City, but it is not easy to produce a world-class player with such a small population.

In addition to the Slovak athlete, a Belarusian athlete threw 81.61m, squeezing out Eden in second place.

Yi Dun's second throw was a little better than the first throw, with a score of 81.09m, temporarily ranking third.

Hungary was fourth with 80.96m, while Hiroharu Murofushi was fifth with 80.71m.

The current situation is similar to what Yi Dun thought, he can safely enter the top five, but the gold medal is definitely not playing.

His current personal record is 81.47m, and there are already two people who have thrown more than 81.47m.

However, it is consoling that Eden is still in third place and has a chance to win the bronze medal.

In the next third throw, many players played a little badly, only the Slovak player scored over 80, and the others were under 80 meters.

Yi Dun made a direct mistake in the third throw, and no results were recorded.

At the end of the three trial throws, four players were eliminated, and there were still eight players left on the field.

The next three shots will decide the outcome of today's game.

Half of the players were thrown in the fourth throw, and Yi Dun chuckled in his heart, and another Belarusian player threw 81.51 meters, which directly squeezed Yi Dun from the third position.

Eden's fourth throw was not impressive, with only 81.07m on the score.

Even if the Slovak and two Belarusians don't improve their scores, if Eden can't throw more than 81.51m in the next two throws, he will miss out on the medal.

In the fifth throw, everyone played poorly, and Yi Dun was no exception, this time he only threw 79.81 meters.

"The situation of the game on the spot, a little unfavorable to Yi Dun, there is still one last chance left, if Yi Dun can not throw more than 81 meters 51 meters, then Yi Dun will take measures to win the chance to win the medal." The CCTV host said with a solemn face.

Today's CCTV invited the guest speaker is Bi Zhong, the previous domestic men's shot put record holder of Yi Dun, he set a domestic record of 77.04 meters in 1989, if it were not Yi Dun, it is estimated that this record can be maintained for at least twenty or thirty years......

"The situation is indeed a little unfavorable for Yidun, whose personal record is 81.47m, and now we can only hope that Yidun can break his personal limit in the last throw."

"But let's not put too much pressure on Yi Dun, even if he can't win a medal this time, Yi Dun has actually made Olympic history in men's hammer throw."

"He is the first Chinese athlete to reach the Olympic men's hammer throw final." Bi Zhong said with a look of hope.

As a veteran athlete who has been retired for many years, he naturally hopes that Yi Dun can bring an Olympic medal to the Chinese men's hammer throw.

……

At the beginning of the sixth throw, the results of several players before Yi Dun were not good, after all, when it came to the sixth throw, it was difficult to throw too bright results.

The Slovak and the two Belarusians have made all six throws, and the results have been fixed and nothing will change.

As for the Japanese player Hiroharu Murofushi, he also finished with six throws, and he definitely has no chance of winning a medal, and even the top five is relatively hanging.

When it was Yi Dun's turn to play, Yi Dun took a deep breath, whether he could win a medal or not, whether he could achieve a breakthrough in the men's hammer throw, it depended on the next shot.

"Ho!"

"Ah......h

The Belarusian player, who is temporarily ranked third, is nervously waiting for the results of Eden to be released.

At present, the situation is very clear, and he definitely has no chance to be in the top two, and whether he can keep the third place depends on Yi Dun's performance.

Moments later, the surveyor gave a surprising result.

"81.51 meters!"

It turned out to be exactly the same as the Belarusian player's result!

Yi Dun was also dumbfounded, although this kind of thing has not happened once or twice in history, but it really happened to him, it still feels quite amazing.

Same best result as the third-ranked Belarusian?!

Yi Dun hurriedly thought about his second best result, his second best result was 81.09m, but what about the Belarusian athletes?

80 meters 87!

Yi Dun was overjoyed, his second best result was better than that of the Belarusian player, wouldn't he be able to win the bronze medal?!
