“…… The results came out, Suzu was second in the group, and the Portuguese star overtook him in the last moments. Europe's fastest runner is once again playing at his level after last year's final in Athens. But it doesn't matter, Suzu has already qualified for the final and we are looking forward to his performance in the same venue in two hours' time. The second group of the men's 100m semi-finals is on the field, so let's see what Justin Gatlin can do in this group. This is what Su Zu needs to challenge in the final. The first is Ronald from France......"

The live broadcast in front of the TV continued, and as the camera changed, the starting area of the men's 100-meter track at the Olympic Stadium, where the eight runners from the second group of the semi-finals had already appeared.

After the start of the second group of the semi-finals, Su Zu did not stay in the arena and continued to watch the second group of games. The weather is a bit shady, and Helsinki is a seaside city, so the sea breeze is strong at night. After the competition, Su Zu and Li Zhizhong, who were waiting for him on the sidelines, returned to a temporary lounge provided by the organizer in the stadium.

"I was a little careless just now, and I was about to put it a little bit in the end, but I didn't expect Obikviru to suddenly follow."

In the lounge, Su Zu put a blanket on his body, stood in the corner of the room, took a sip of saliva, and took the initiative to say to Li Zhizhong on the side.

"Really?" Li Zhizhong glanced at Su Zu, there was no slow-motion replay, and in the short time of the game, he couldn't see whether Su Zu hesitated in the end, but he had successfully advanced to the finals, and Lao Li was in a very good mood. smiled and said, "It's okay, just advance to the finals, pay attention to the finals." ”

The competitive spirit of an athlete is like this, even if they qualify for the final, as long as there is a game that feels like something unexpected is safe, they will be haunted.

Su Zu himself didn't realize this, the farther he went in the competitive field, the greater the change in mentality. But a coach like Lao Li has a clear insight on the side, and if he wants to win the championship and the first place, he can't win without this kind of heart.

After sitting in the lounge for a few minutes, soon there was a sound of footsteps, the door of the lounge was pushed open, and Zhang Pingqiu and Jiang Daheng walked in.

"Gatlin ran 9.99 seconds in the semi-finals, Ghana's Aziz Zachary in 10 seconds, Jamaica's Twight Thomas in 10.06 seconds, Jason Gardner in 10.08 seconds, this group is also a good result, there are four people who are under 10.10 seconds."

After Zhang Pingqiu came in, he told Li Zhizhong and Su Zu the details of the second group of matches below.

The results of the two semi-finals are out, and basically the entire finalist list has been decided. The top three teams from each semi-final group advance directly to the finals, while the other two spots are filled by the best two players.

"There are many newcomers who have emerged in this World Championships, and the level is not lower than that of the Olympic Games."

After hearing Zhang Pingqiu finish talking about the results of the second group, Li Zhizhong nodded, frowning slightly.

In the current form of athletics, the new generation of sprinters is growing rapidly, and even if there are many famous athletes like Asafa Powell absent at this World Championships, the results are definitely not bad.

Su Zu's eyes were a little solemn when he heard Gatling's results come out. Asafa Powell did not compete, Morris Green made an early name and although he has not yet retired, he has faded out after the Athens Olympics, and Justin Gatlin is Suzu's most important opponent.

Suzu won Justin Gatlin once in last year's Yokohama All-Star Game, but Suzu could not take the other side lightly, after all, there was a lot of performance in that tournament, and Gatlin may not be in the best form after Athens.

One of the '82 Three Heroes and one of the Five Sprinters, Justin Gatling is definitely one of the top sprinters on the planet, even though he has never broken a world record. But looking back on his previous life, he was banned for drug problems at the prime of his life, and he was still able to climb to the top again after his comeback and become a strong challenger for the Jamaican Lightning, which has to be shocking.

Moreover, Gatlin is also one of the best in personal competition compared to other athletes, and among the top sprinters, he is the only one who rarely has major injuries.

"Su Zu, don't stand stupidly first, do a few sets of stretching exercises." After a few people talked, Jiang Daheng opened his mouth and pointed at Su Zu and said.

Usually a professional athlete needs a group of physiotherapists, masseurs and chiropractors to relieve soreness, and the track and field team is also equipped with personnel in this area, but relatively speaking, Jiang Daheng's attainments in this area are basically competent, and with the cooperation of team doctor Xu Zhikui, there is no big problem.

Athletes do not start muscle massage and relaxation immediately, but mainly use stretching and stretching exercises to allow the muscles and body to fully recover.

"The weather in Helsinki is really not good, and I asked a lot of people before I came, this place is a good tourist city."

Seeing that Su Zu began to do some pulling movements, Jiang Daheng raised his hand to help a little, and said with a smile.

"Let's hope it doesn't rain again."

Li Zhizhong also has a bit of a headache about the weather in Helsinki these days, and he can rest for a day after the men's 100m final, but there are also men's 200m and relay races later.

"I can't say for sure, I looked at the weather forecast in Helsinki, and it was still rainy." Zhang Pingqiu has been paying attention to the weather forecast in Helsinki in the past few days, and he feels that the situation may not be so optimistic.

For this kind of outdoor event, the impact of rainy days is still relatively large, in addition to the venue factors, the main thing is to pay attention to the fact that athletes compete in the rain and are prone to diseases.

Athletes are generally in better health than ordinary people, but with a relatively dense schedule like Su Zu, a slight headache and brain fever will greatly affect his performance.

Half an hour later, after doing simple stretching and stretching exercises, Su Zu rested for a while and supplemented a little nutrition, and Jiang Daheng then began to massage and relax Su Zu's muscles.

……

“…… Hensel Jackson comfortably qualified for the final of the men's 400m hurdles, a seeded contender for the men's 400m hurdles title at this year's World Championships...... Okay, the men's 100m final will start soon, and in this group of finals, my country's Suzu will face the Athens Olympic champion Justin Gatlin again, which is also their third meeting, let's wait and see......"

21:30 p.m. Helsinki time, 3:30 a.m. Beijing time.

In the Olympic Stadium, the semi-finals of the men's 400m hurdles have just ended, and the American 400m hurdles star Ensel Jackson qualified by a clear margin. In track and field, the men's 100m final will be held right away.

On the indoor track in the check-in area, Su Zu conducted a simple start warm-up training, and soon stood in a row with the other eight finalists, and returned to the Olin Stadium again under the guidance of the guide arranged by the organizer.

The Olympic Stadium was brightly lit, and all the spectators sat safely in the seats, and no one left early, waiting to watch the men's 100m final, one of the highlights of the World Championships.

At the moment when the athletes appeared, the spectators inside and outside the stadium were greeted with warm cheers, and the men's 100-meter trapeze final has always been the most eye-catching competition in track and field events, and it is the pearl of the track and field crown.

After walking on the runway, as the atmosphere of the scene became warmer, Su Zu also felt that his spirit was slightly invigorated, and a fire that had been precipitated in his heart for a long time seemed to have a spurting posture with the advent of the competition.

The TV cameras and the big screen of the live competition were all aimed at the eight finalists. At the top of the screen, information such as the lane schedule, names and nationalities of the eight athletes was also typed at the same time.

First Lane, Dwight Thomas, Jamaica;

Second Lane, Leonard Scott, USA;

Third Lane, Justin Gatlin, USA;

Fourth lane, Francis Obiqueru, Portugal;

Fifth Dao, Suzu, China;

Sixth lane, Aziz Zachary, Ghana;

Seventh Way, Mark Burns, Trinidad and Tobago;

Eighth Lane, Michael Flat, Jamaica;

When the audience saw the eight athletes in front of the starting line in front of the TV, the voice of Yang Jian, who was now commentator, was also transmitted to the ears of the audience who were still in front of the TV in the early hours of the morning through the satellite network.

“…… Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the men's 100m final of this World Championships. The first is Jamaica's Dwight Thomas, a young athlete born in 1982 who won the 2003 Pan American Games. Jamaica has grown rapidly from the women's sprint program for more than 80 years to the men's sprint program 2,000 years later, and is one of the most formidable opponents in the sports world today against the United States for track and field supremacy. In this World Championships, like the United States, there are two finalists ......"

Following the live camera, the first athlete to appear was Jamaican player Dwight Thomas, who immediately raised his hands in place and smiled at the surrounding audience when the camera focused on him.

Jamaica has seen an endless stream of sprinting talent in these years, and the men's 100m record, which has been held by the United States for many years, has also become obsolete with Powell's explosion this year.

And even if Asafa Powell failed to participate in this World Championships, the strength of the two athletes who entered the final of the opponent should not be underestimated.

The camera then focused on the second and third lanes, with American star Leonard Scott and new Olympic champion Justin Gatlin in the 100m, causing a slight burst of cheers.

Gatlin has also had a good momentum this year, having already run 9.90 seconds several times, although he failed to run 9.80 seconds, like Asafa Powell, but an Olympic 100m champion is the most popular and eye-catching object wherever he goes.

Fourth, Francis Obikoviru, the fastest runner in Europe in front of the camera, looked solemn at this time, his lips moved lightly, as if he was silently reciting something. It was the first time he had reached the final with a top semi-final finish and he would need to prove his worth of life in the Circle against a crowd of young players.

The fifth, Su Zu. When the camera focused on Su Zu, although many people already knew him, they couldn't help but let out a low exclamation. Among the black players, Su Zu is completely different from each other in terms of skin color and sportswear, and he is particularly conspicuous.

Many people in front of the TV even followed the camera and shook their fists fiercely at this moment, this feeling is particularly cool, such a top event, how could there have been their own comrades in the past, and now in various competitions, Su Zu's figure has become normal.

In the sixth lane, Ghanaian sprinter Aziz Zachary, born in 1976, is the oldest athlete in the field and qualified for the semi-finals of the Athens Olympics. In the men's 100m race when Powell broke the world record at the Athens Grand Prix in June, he set a personal best of 9.99 seconds, the second-best time in the country after Ghana.

The seventh Mark Burns, the eighth Michael Flatt, and the current cameraman also do not hesitate to give the camera, these are all strong players born in 82 and 83, and no one can say whether they will suddenly have an outburst.

With the introduction of the information of the players one by one, the athletes on the scene walked back and forth in place, moving their joint muscles and making final preparations before the competition.

“On your marks！”

After hearing the voices of everyone in place, Su Zu began to gather his mood again and walked towards the starting block.

The enthusiastic cheers and noisy trivial noises began to gradually subside, accompanied by the prompts of the starter.

Tens of thousands of people in the stadium stared at the starting line of the 100-meter track.

As the largest track and field event after the Olympic Games, Su Zu's heart couldn't help but have some waves at this time, but soon as he focused on the competition, this ripple gradually dissipated.

In the sweeping shots, all the viewers saw Su Zu's eyes when he looked up at the finish line, hopeful, cold, and full of persistence and desire for victory.

In front of the starting line, Su Zu kept changing the focus point of his feet landing on the starting block, his fingers measuring the distance on the cold track, and slowly adjusting his position.

It's an uphill battle.

originally thought that the opponent would only be Gatlin, but the sudden outbreak of Obikviru in the semifinals made Suzu realize that he could not look down on anyone on this track and field.

He's not a Jamaican lightning, he's got the strength to dominate the world, he's still a challenger, there's no world record, there's no world championship, everything is still on the way.

If you want to become a legend, if you want to carve your name into the history of world athletics, and if you want to win the world's highest honor for the Chinese people, it is not enough now.

He has to give it his all!

“…… The scene is quiet, the players are taking their places, and the game is about to begin! Suzu is already ready on the starting gear and we are looking forward to him being able to pull off another miracle......"

All the people who were still watching the World Championships in front of the TV set were gradually raised with the movements of the athletes, and they were nervously paying attention to the athletes' every move.

Outside the arena, Li Zhizhong pursed his lips tightly, and his brows unconsciously showed a series of forehead lines.

Although Su Zu has proven his level of strength time and time again, as well as his stable mentality in the tournament, Li Zhizhong has never been able to completely relax.

Every time Suzu competes, his heart will be tense together, and on the occasion of this competition, it is not only a test for the athlete's heart, but also for him all the time.

“SET！” The voice of preparation sounded.

Su Zu lowered his head and stared at the runway that was a little dark because of the rain, but every muscle in his body was adjusted to the best state at this moment.

Syllable!

"Game on!"

On the TV screen, Yang Jian's voice suddenly came out, so loud that it was almost terrifying.

But at this time, no one paid attention to the commentary, and one by one they were all engrossed in accelerating from a standstill to the highest speed on the track.

Whew-

With a neat and orderly starting action, the men's trapeze battle of this World Championships began at this moment.

Start acceleration.

In an instant, the athletes' bodies exploded, generating a super powerful force, pushing the entire body forward rapidly.

In the first 30 meters, Leonard Scott had the advantage, the sprinter who switched from track and field to ball sports and back to track and field, and was getting better and better, with crisp and sharp movements, fast and powerful.

However, he was not able to dominate this group, with two Jamaican athletes, White Thomas and Michael Flett, starting just as fast enough to reach a distance of tens of metres.

Showing a super level of strength, both of them will be the first or second of Jamaica's big improvement in the men's 4×100m relay record after '08.

And after them, the speed of the other five at this stage is almost indistinguishable.

Su Zu may be a little faster, but this small gap is almost impossible to distinguish with the naked eye unless a high-powered camera is used.

At first glance, the eight players are not very different at this stage.

Suzu and Justin Gatlin have a similar running pattern, with both men leaning towards a fuller acceleration with big, powerful strides in the first 30 meters.

Among them, Obikviru himself has a slower start due to his height and long legs, but after special attention and a series of starting training, he has improved to a certain extent.

The other Mark Burns and Aziz Zachary did not have this obvious sprinting technique, and they had a rapid acceleration in the first half, but in terms of cadence, they were slightly inferior to the front three.

After 30 meters, all the athletes gradually increased their speed and began to enter the middle run.

The speed of the sprint competition is too fast, and if you want to see every move of the race, you must also concentrate as much as possible, and you can't miss a single thing.

In an instant, the speed of Su Zu and Gatling both increased at the same time, and they suddenly jumped from the second sequence of the starting acceleration stage to the position of the first sequence.

Gatlin is in the third lane, Suzu is in the fifth lane, and between the two, Obi Keviru's speed is not slow, but it is only a gap of half a body behind.

“…… Wow...... Oh......"

The atmosphere on the field was instantly ignited, and at a distance of dozens of meters in front, the difference between the positions of five or six athletes was extremely small, but the speed was amazingly fast, and there was a sense of impact when watching the horses run wildly.

Sixty meters, seventy meters......

In the first sequence, Gatlin, Obikviru and Suzu have gradually come to the fore, and the three athletes representing the highest 100-meter level of this World Championships are advancing at a rising speed.

The speed is not as good as Leonard Scott in lane 2 and Michael Flatt in lane 8, but this distance is not likely to be much of a gap in the 100m race.

The eight athletes present are all able to run within 6.60 seconds in 60 meters, and Suzu and Justin Gatlin are all within 6.50 seconds.

Although the speed of the two people in the first half of the 100-meter race is controlled, and more attention is paid to pace and acceleration, it is basically at the level of 6.6 seconds. And this kind of control, after 60 meters, is not faster than the athletes who are fast in the first half of the race can catch up.

One step, two steps, three steps, each step is more than two meters long,

Su Zu's eyes were firmly locked on the finish line, which was getting closer and closer, and at this moment, he could feel how much pressure the two runners next to him had brought him without scanning the corner of his eye.

However, it is this pressure that is the driving force that urges him to move forward.

At this moment, Su Zu was running in the best state and with all his strength.

Stimulated by two strong players, Garst and Obikviru, his speed reached the extreme.

Obikviru was also gritting his teeth, and from the start, he was always slightly behind Suzu and Gatling by half a body.

This may not seem like a big difference, but among athletes of their level, once they are at a disadvantage, even a little bit, it is almost difficult to complete a reversal.

100 meters is too short, and the speed of the players is too fast, and they can't wait for you to give you a second chance to overtake. This is one of the reasons why Obikviru recognized his weaknesses in the past and often adopted the strategy of pressing the gun and running.

It's a pity that this group is the finals, and it is impossible for Su Zu to be distracted and give him a chance to surpass.

Gatlin's round face also became hideous at this time, he was in his prime, the winner of the Athens Olympic Games, he did not allow himself to fail, he did not allow himself to lose.

He snatched the 100m title from the previous generation of sprinters Morris Green last year and was already the most talked-about sports star, but this glory has not been around for a year, and his aura has been somewhat overshadowed by the record-breaking results of Powell, who retired in last year's Olympic final.

Powell is now the undisputed Man of the Year in the men's 100m, the world record holder and tops the IAAF points rankings.

He's going to catch up, he's going to win the championship and prove himself.

Who is the first and who is the champion, this is always the news that ordinary people pay attention to physical fitness and the media chase hot spots.

Justin Gatlin, who has an undergraduate degree, understands that people only remember the first place, remember the champion, and everyone else can easily be overlooked.

Unless he comes from a country with a relatively low level of athletics, especially men's sprinting, like Su Zu, and this country has an extremely huge market and is a kind of national hero's historical breakthrough, his topicality is far from enough.

Eighty meters, ninety meters...... Competition is intensifying.

Su Zu was in the fifth lane and had already run to the first position.

Justin Gatlin was behind him, Obik Viru was behind him, and Michael Flat, who overtook Leonard Scott, was also behind him.

Gatlin grew his mouth and was struggling to pursue, he was known for his big stride and high cadence, and he was absolutely strong in the second half of the game, but at this moment, he couldn't catch up.

And the fourth Dao Obi Keviru bit his lip tightly, he was squeezing every bit of potential in his body, wanting to make an instant counterattack like in the semifinals, but ......

The end is in sight.

Yang Jian, the on-site commentator, was extremely excited, and his voice was so sharp that he screamed like a girl: "Su Zu, Su Zu and Gatling are neck and neck, Su Zu has surpassed, Su Zu is now in the first position, Su Zu ran to the first, Su Zu, first, first, Su Zu is the first place, Su Zu has won!" Su Zu broke the Asian record again!! ”

When the last three words "first place" were shouted, countless viewers in front of the TV heard Yang Jian's voice hoarse, but the excitement in those words almost seemed to be spewing out of the TV.

9.84 seconds!

"Win?!"

After Su Zu crossed the finish line, looking at the results on the timing board, his heart suddenly became like a barrel of dynamite that had been accumulated for a long time, and countless joys exploded at the same time.

He defeated Justin Gatlin and defeated Obikviru, the two champions and runners-up of the Athens Olympics in the original historical time and space, and in this World Championships, he was surpassed!

9.84 seconds, Su Zu almost didn't think about how he ran out, he was only 9.87 seconds when he ran fastest last time, and at this moment, at this moment, he broke through himself again.

Under the stimulation of the two strong players, he almost completely devoted, without the slightest slackness, used all his strength, and finally, won!

Only the strongest opponent can surpass yourself again and again! Surpass your opponents, surpass yourself!

Su Zu opened his mouth and roared into the sky, and ran around the entire Olympic Stadium with his arms outstretched.

At this moment, dozens of bold media cameramen with cameras and cameras rushed in from the media area.

One of the young camera reporters even took the camera and followed Su Zu's running steps while running and shooting, which made people wonder how a reporter could catch up with the speed of a world championship 100-meter champion.

I won!

I won the World Championship!

"Sue!"

"Sue!"

The reporter who followed Su Zu as he ran shouted at him, as if trying to make him stop moving.

Su Zu looked excited, pulled up the national flag on the left chest tracksuit, pointed and shouted loudly: "China, win!" ”

When Su Zu suddenly crossed the finish line, the cheers of countless spectators at the scene suddenly sounded like the torrential rain at the opening ceremony a few days ago.

Tens of thousands of people got up from their seats, having just witnessed one of the highest levels in the world today, the men's 100m fly, and the results were beyond their expectations.

On such a night, the cold wind kills people's muscles and bones, and such a field is full of enthusiasm and passion!

On the sidelines, Li Zhizhong jumped up at the moment when Su Zu crossed the finish line, and shouted at several people behind him: "Win!" Suzu is the first, the champion, we are the champion! ”

All the members of the team shouted wildly at this moment, they are members of the "Su team", they are not like Lao Li, they still have a lot of hesitation and uncertainty when they first entered this team, but at this moment, in the men's 100m final of the World Championships, Su Zu dispelled everyone's distractions with a championship.

World Champion!

This is the first 100-meter championship since the Chinese, no, Asians participated in the sprint event, Red Lightning, Asian Lightning, Chinese Flyer, worthy of the name.

This is not the Olympics, but this is the world's highest level of track and field competition recognized by the IAAF, and here, China gave birth to the first world sprint champion!

Countless spectators who were nervously watching the game in front of the TV were screaming at this moment, and some even poked their heads out of the windows and balconies and shouted loudly "We are world champions!! ”

At such a time, who will care whether he will make noise to others, I just want to vent the ecstasy and excitement in my heart, I just want to tell you that our Chinese's first single world sprint champion was just born!
