“…… The men's 200m world record was set by American sprinter Michael Johnson in 19.32 seconds at the Atlanta 1996 Olympics. The men's 200m record at the World Championships is 19.75 seconds set by Suzu at the 2005 World Championships, and the original record is 19.79 seconds set by Michael Johnson in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1995.

After Suzu broke the men's 100m world record, a reporter contacted Michael Johnson and asked him what he thought about his world record being broken.

Michael Johnson once joked that even if Suzu broke his 200m world record, he still had a 400m world record.

In addition, in the second group of the semi-finals, Suzu and Tyson Gay were placed in a group and they will meet in the semi-finals in advance. Su Zu still can't be careless in the face of the challenge of Tyson Gay, who is very meticulous in preparing for this World Championships, and is a very domineering athlete with outstanding psychological quality.

In a way, Guy also inherited the essence of the American athletes who came before him, which I mentioned before, that is, 'who else can I be', from the bottom of my heart I think that I am the best in the world, or that you can beat me, but it is impossible to scare me into shrinking my hands and feet. This is a tradition for American athletes.

In the course of the development of the sprinting career in the past ten years, the American sprinting career has also had waves of ups and downs in talent, but his spirit has run through.

For example, Lewis to Green, then to Gatling to now Guy; They grew up in a high-level and fierce competition in the local area, or a brutal atmosphere. Their innate psychological strengths or self-confidence are slowly cultivated from an early age.

This kind of self-confidence can also be said to be self-interested, very, very self-ego, even arrogant, but often in the most critical and important occasions, this factor becomes a kind of domineering, a kind of oppressive domineering.

At this highest level, at the top of the competition, the players will have an aura when they stand on the lap, which is something intangible, you can press your opponent and you can be pressed by your opponent, these are things that they can feel themselves, and Guy has inherited the tradition of American athletes very well......

In the 200m event, in addition to Tyson Gay, Jamaican young player Usain Bolt is also an extremely strong player. He broke the Jamaican national men's 200m record this year.

Today is the men's 200m semi-finals, tomorrow is the men's 200m final, and from the current form of qualification, the United States and Jamaica have an absolute advantage.

Suzu is likely to be besieged by two, or even two, more American and Jamaican players in the final......"

At 22:15 local time on the evening of August 29, at 21:15 Beijing time, CCTV Channel 5 began to broadcast the men's 200m semifinals live. Because the World Championships did not broadcast the preliminaries and semifinals, on-site commentator Yang Jian quickly analyzed the approximate form of the men's 200 meters.

At this time, the broadcast camera was already focused on the eight runners who appeared on the track, the second was Patrick Johnson of Australia, the third was Kuranti Martina of the Netherlands Antilles, the fourth was Rodney Martin of the United States, the fifth was Brian Tingay of Zimbabwe, the sixth was Jamaica's Usain Bolt, the seventh Wallace Spirmon, the eighth was Francis Obikviru, and the ninth Poland was Marchin Jedrushinski.

The main focus will be on Usain Bolt, who ran the third-best time in the men's 200m this year, but Wallace Spearmon and veteran Obikviru are also expected.

As the time approached, the on-site starter gave the players a password to take their places.

After a gunshot, the first group of the men's 200m semifinals officially began.

In the first shot, the eight runners started smoothly, and there was no rush to run.

Bolt was in lane six, and despite being the slowest in reaction time, he accelerated quickly from the start and established an advantage before entering the corner.

After several years of training by Glenn Mills, Usain Bolt at this time has shown a rapid increase in terms of tournament experience, mental level, and physical muscle strength.

Especially after entering 2007, he put aside the psychological burden of running 400 meters at the same time, and he showed amazing progress in the sprint running.

In this group of races, Bolt's left lace even fell loose during the run, but this did not affect his performance, and with a long lead, Bolt unloaded 50 meters back, but still won the group with a time of 20.03 seconds.

Wallace Spearmon finished second in the group with a sprint run after a modest start, while Martin of the United States and Martina of the Netherlands Antilles also qualified for the final in third and fourth places in the group, with the latter setting a new national record of 20.20 seconds.

"Jamaica is such a talent in athletics! This Usain Bolt remembered as the 200m record holder at the 2004 World Championships, right? ”

On the sidelines, Feng Shuyong looked at the tall black young man who easily won the first place in the semi-final group, and sighed softly.

As the leader of a track and field team, there are many things that need to be coordinated and balanced. But as long as there is a Suzu competition, he will basically put other things aside first and make a special trip to see the game.

The first gold medal at this World Championships was Su Zu's men's 100m, followed by two more promising ones in the men's 200m and men's 110m hurdles.

Compared to the previous edition, there is little hope of breaking through the total number of gold medals, but at present, the growth of young athletes in some sports is not bad.

"It has something to do with race, this is a racial talent, black people are especially capable of running." Standing behind Feng Shuyong was a Sven man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a white shirt.

"Not exactly." Feng Shuyong glanced lightly at the deputy director from the General Administration, and then said, "Director Luo has been to Jamaica for exchange and study before, the local environmental conditions are actually very ordinary, but the track and field atmosphere is very good, it can be said that the young generation regards track and field as a way to change the fate of life, especially in sprint events, Jamaica has produced more and more good players over the years." ”

"Oh, really?" Sven gently pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Is that a bit of South American football?" ”

"The support of the policy, the vigorous popularization and promotion, this is the top priority in the selection of talents." Feng Shuyong nodded, "Now our track and field events are supported by Su Zu and Liu Yangyu, but if the two of them retire...... You also know that the career of a sprint athlete is very short, and you still need to pay attention to the cultivation of successor talents......"

"Coach Feng's words are what they should mean, in recent years, I have also seen the domestic track and field fever and selected a lot of talents, which should be like this."

Sven Man nodded, looked at the players in the first group in the arena and left, and continued, "The second group is Su Zu is going to play, right?" ”

"Well, Suzu and Tyson Gay are both in this group, but this is a semi-final after all, and both of them should be there for the purpose of appearing, so they will have reservations." Speaking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Feng Shuyong's mouth, "You don't know, Su Zu was a stunned young man at the beginning, basically he has been fighting with all his strength since the preliminaries and rematches, and he has matured in the past few years, and he will begin to pay attention to conserving his physical strength." ”

While the two were talking, the runners in the second group of the men's 200m semifinals had already appeared at the starting line.

When Suzu and Tyson Gay stood in the fifth and sixth lanes respectively, the audience burst into cheers and loud whistles almost one after another, throughout the audience.

After defending his men's 100m title, Suzu faces the biggest challenger of this year's in-form Tyson Gay, who has been foretold over and over again before the race and will be one of the themes of almost the entire World Championships.

From the men's 100m on the first day, to the men's 200m now, and the men's 4×100m relay on the penultimate day. It can be said that the competition with top sprinters such as Suzu, Guy and Powell has become the most eye-catching signature of this World Championships.

Standing in front of the starting line, Su Zu shrugged his shoulders and breathed gently, adjusting his state.

Compared with the Athens Olympics and the World Championships in Helsinki, he has been in the past few years, whether it is physical fitness, competition experience, or the state and confidence of facing various athletes.

Victory after victory, record after record, has built up enough confidence for him to face any opponent.

And with the accumulation of game experience, he can also have a more reasonable distribution of physical fitness when dealing with the game.

The goal of this game is to qualify, and running in the top four is not much of a problem for him, of course, if he can, he will adjust his position reasonably and strive for more advantageous lanes.

Of the eight runners in the second group of the men's 200m semi-finals, the second lane was Jamaica's Marvin Anderson, the third lane was Antigua and Barbuda Bundanlen Christine, the fourth lane was Ireland's Paul Hansen, the fifth lane was Suzu, the sixth lane was Tyson Gay, the seventh lane was Greece's Anastasias Gossis, the eighth lane was Belgium's Christophe Beyens, and the ninth lane was Christopher Williams.

After the gunshots rang out, Jamaica's Anderson had a good start in the acceleration phase, his reaction speed was the slowest among the eight runners, but he performed extremely well in the acceleration phase of the start, and the acceleration in the first 30 meters of the corner dominated the advantage.

But in the midway running stage, Su Zu quickly caught up with the absolute strength gap. Tyson Gay, on the other hand, went into the straight stage in the corner and built a second-place lead right behind Suzu.

In the final 50 meters, Suzu and Tyson Gay both had noticeable releases, but both ran into the 20-second mark to advance to the final as first and second in their group.

Two Jamaican athletes, Marvin Anderson and Christopher Williams, finished third and fourth, respectively, and the top eight finalists in the men's 200m were officially announced.

As most people expected, the men's 200m final saw Suzu and the Netherlands Antilles' Kuranti Martina face three Americans and three Jamaicans.
