Syllable!

Match guns rang out.

The Olympic Stadium in Rome went from quiet to boiling in an instant, and on the starting line, all the runners suddenly started to run.

But after only a few steps, all the athletes suddenly stopped.

“…… Rush away! Leonard Scott just got a run! The American was obviously a little nervous, and in a race like this, it might be only a rush to get everyone's attention......

In front of the TV, the spectators, who were nervously watching the game, only saw a recall officer on the sidelines raise the flag, and then all the athletes slowed down and trotted a few steps back to the starting line.

On the field, Leonard Scott waved his hand vigorously, clearly unhappy with his rush, and his personal reaction time on the big screen was 0.989 seconds, which meant that he almost almost succeeded in the run.

Scott stood there and clenched his fists fiercely, and the athletes present could see that he was unwilling to rush away.

As a brother and alumnus of Justin Gatlin, both Leonard Scott and Gatlin were coaches at the University of Tennessee, but later went on a professional path. Scott's coach was replaced by John Smith, who coached Morris Green, and he is also relatively close to Morris Green in terms of technique and running style.

Scott's first half of the race was definitely at the top level in the world, and it was common for him to lead Gatlin, Suzu and Powell in many races, on the one hand, because of his extremely precise starting reaction and starting action.

In the 100m, there are always runners who are great in the first half of the race, but terrible in the second half. This is known abroad as the "Leonard Scott style".

At this moment, both Suzu and Asafa Powell suddenly became alert.

This match is really a match for the two of them.

Compete for the title to see who can break the world record, and the rest of the fighters will hardly be included in the opponents by the two at this stage.

After all, in addition to the current two, the only person in the world who can run the 9.80 second mark is the banned Justin Gatlin.

The moment Su Zu walked back to the starting line, he was a little nervous in his heart.

Although he is basically running with a gun now, at the moment when the gun sounds, the person is in a state of high concentration, and if he is not careful, he may run away.

The first chance to rush is gone, and you can't make any more mistakes.

Including the audience at the scene and in front of the TV, at this time, one by one poked their heads, grabbed their sleeves, and bit their lips, they were also quite nervous.

Everyone's attention to this game is Suzu and Powell, and it would be extremely disappointing if one of the two of them waited for the second shot to run away and be sent off early.

Even if any of the remaining players break the world record, without the showdown of the top players in the same division, such a match will definitely not be exciting enough.

What you want to see is not only record-breaking, but also the kind of competition between the best players!

Only this kind of contest has attracted the attention of countless people!

The nine players on the scene, at this moment, their mood became a little heavy, and the pressure of rushing to the top arena is the easiest to make the players feel unbalanced.

In the highly anticipated arena, everyone wants to play extraordinarily, but if you lose and get sent off, it's simply unacceptable.

For example, Obi Keviru, who has experienced being sent off in the Olympic final, has almost a shadow of this kind of scene.

The more you try to prove yourself and express yourself, the easier it is to make mistakes.

A rush like Leonard Scott is nothing short of normal in front of Suzu and Powell.

Who can face these two people and be completely indifferent?

This Golden League Rome matchup, to the present has gradually expanded its influence, is no less than the 05 World Championships 100-meter final, and even many "spinach" companies in Europe have opened from this game to a few years of World Cup, are the handicap of Suzu and Powell.

Back on the starting line, Su Zu took a long breath, looked up at the finish line in the distance, slowly leaned down again, and walked onto the starting track.

Like him, a heavy breath was heard.

Powell jumped lightly on the spot and moved his body, the more this kind of game, the more it tested his mental quality.

Just now, he started with a very fast reaction and a perfect start, but he only ran one or two dozen meters before he stopped. For athletes who are on constant tension, it is still necessary to adjust quickly to get back into the groove.

After all the runners were crouched over the starting gear again, the two IAAF staff checked the posture of all the runners and signaled to the starters on the sidelines.

“SET！” The voice of preparation rang out again.

The scene has returned to calm again from the uproar just now, and it is waiting with bated breath.

Syllable!

The starting gun rang out.

At this moment, Su Zu suddenly felt a figure around him suddenly fly out.

It was almost synchronized with the gunshot, even faster than the gunshot, and at the moment when Su Zu was just about to start, the figure had already rushed out.

Su Zu was stunned by the figure that suddenly ran out, and obviously, he was not alone.

Next to him, Asafa Powell was likewise greatly disturbed.

Who's this?!

Everyone at the scene and in front of the TV was in an uproar.

Because someone had already rushed to the first shot, most of the players in this shot became much more cautious.

Su Zu and Powell's starting reaction and starting speed are actually relatively similar, and in the start of this second shot, the psychology is actually similar.

It's all about stability, listening to the guns and running.

Both of them are at the top level, and if it is the first shot, they may still hold the pressure gun to run better and surpass each other, but the second shot, no matter what, will stabilize the mentality.

At this time, you can't be impatient, losing on the field, and being sent off because of the rush are completely different concepts.

However, the two of them did not rush to the people who cared about this Golden League, but some of the other players ran away after the first shot, and then ran away with the second shot.

And, it worked!

Almost as soon as Suzu and Asafa Powell had already started with several other players, the spurt shot distanced himself from the others.

He turned out to be – Leonard Scott!

Leonard Scott, who ran away with the first shot, withstood the huge pressure and ran again!

It was also a start, but Leonard Scott's starting reaction was at least 0.05 seconds faster than Suzu and Asafa Powell, and Scott's starting acceleration was amazing, and even Suzu and Powell were difficult to overtake each other in the first half of the race.

Not to mention, the other party occupies such a first-mover advantage.

It can be said that at the moment of start, the remaining eight runners were all disrupted by Scott.

By the time Suzu and Powell took their second step, Leonard Scott had already grabbed an advantage of almost two meters, and his speed was still increasing wildly.

Yang Jian, the on-site commentator, was so confused by this momentary change that he didn't react for a while, and only a strange voice came out of his throat before he spoke: "...... Scott again pressed the gun to run to take the lead......"

Although he was disrupted by the rhythm, Su Zu still adjusted as fast as he could. From the third step from the start, I was completely in the groove.

Powell, who was beside him, also did not give up, and both of them quickly adjusted their state and began to chase wildly.

"Oh-" An exclamation from the audience was heard almost across the TV screen.

On the field, two figures marched in unison, frantically chasing Leonard Scott, who ran in the first place.

In the 100-meter event, if the strength and level are close, the start can sometimes lock the winner.

But if it's not at a level, there's still a chance.

It's just that it's hard too!

Although it is impossible to visually see how much advantage Leonard Scott has won in this rush, when other runners such as Suzu and Powell started, when the gap with Scott was the largest, everyone on the scene could see it clearly, more than a meter away, maybe two meters?!

This can't be determined with the naked eye, and Su Zu can't be sure on the field, so he can only know by waiting for the video analysis after the game.

But after the gunshots rang out, it was impossible for the athletes to give up and leave the field if they were not injured!

Su Zu didn't know if the other competitors would, but from the moment he stepped onto the track, he never gave up on the idea of doing his best to compete just because his opponent had an advantage.

And Asafa Powell, if it were any other race, he might feel that Scott had too much advantage, too lazy to chase, and run casually.

But in this game, his opponent was Su Zu, and when Su Zu suddenly chased after him, he also broke out in his best state.

Thirty meters, fifty meters, seventy meters......

The cheers almost broke the roof.

They saw the sheer speed of two of the fastest men in the world.

At thirty meters, Suzu and Powell were still more than a meter away from Scott, but at fifty meters, the gap was already within one meter. Seventy meters, the gap between the two and Scott is less than half a meter......

The extreme speed of catching up is dizzying.

Only the comparison of other runners can vividly reflect how fast the two strongest people in today's sprint event are!

Leonard Scott, this year's indoor 60m champion, can run 9.95 seconds in the 100m. This is by no means a mediocre hand, but a small group of people who run the fastest in the world of athletics.

And now, in the face of Su Zu and Powell's pursuit, he can't even maintain the advantage he seized at the start moment until the end!

Eighty meters, ninety meters......

The finish line, getting closer.

On the straight runway, almost everyone is staring.

At a distance of 80 meters, the gap between Suzu and Powell and Scott narrowed again.

Two positions, one position......

The last ten meters......

Rush the line!

The spectators watched as almost three people crossed the finish line side by side, with a time of 9.94 seconds on the timing board!

Who wins the championship?!

On the track near the finish line, Suzu and Powell both slowed down, while Scott, who was in the sixth lane next to them, danced at this moment, and his face showed ecstasy.

"Didn't he win?"

"What's going on?"

Suzu and Powell looked at each other and looked at Scott with some puzzlement.

Powell is the fourth lane, and his position for Scott is not particularly clear because of Su Zu's block, but Su Zu can feel that he has surpassed Scott at the moment of the final line.

I can't say for sure how much, but it's definitely Scott in front.

Sure enough, more than ten seconds later, the big screen on the scene showed the results of the race just now and the picture of the last few people crossing the finish line.

1. Fifth lane, Su Zu, reaction 0.173 seconds, score 9.94 seconds (9.938);

2. Fourth lane, Asafa Powell, reaction 0.175 seconds, 9.95 seconds (9.946);

3. Sixth lane, Leonard Scott, reaction 0.107 seconds, 9.96 seconds (9.958);

……

At this time, in front of the finish line of the scene, many reporters had already gathered around and took pictures of Su Zu and Powell one after another.

In front of Scott, there are also many reporters with microphones interviewing him.

"Leonard, will you regret that you didn't win Suzu and Asafa Powell in the end, after all, it's just that little?"

Scott stood in front of the camera, in high spirits, grinning and laughing, "Why should I feel sorry, I think I've won ah sweetheart." ”

As he spoke, Scott pointed to Suzu and Powell next to him, "The two fastest runners in the world at the moment, they were going to break the record in this race, but I ruined their chances." ”

A day later, Scott's words were transmitted back to the United States, and many American netizens praised and left messages, "Scott, the new American hero!" ”

An American netizen left a message: "During the years of Justin Gatlin's ban, the American men's 100-meter dash reached its most severe moment, and Scott did a good job in Rome. He didn't let us see another world record that wasn't an American ......."
