Chapter 303: Promotion
Seventy meters, eighty meters, ninety meters......
The loud drumming on the sidelines is getting louder and louder, and the sprint race has reached the semi-finals, and many of the top sprinters aiming to qualify for the finals are no longer afraid to make reservations at this time, at least until they have completely locked in their advantage.
For some other athletes, from the preliminaries to the semifinals to the semifinals, every round of the World Championships that can be advanced is basically a fight with all their might, and what kind of degree can be reached, without reservations, without retreat, is to fight.
In such a situation, even the strongest players cannot be taken lightly in the semi-finals, and it is not uncommon for many champion seeds to be eliminated in the semi-finals if they are not careful.
On the sidelines, Randy Hunter watched Ye Qin officially enter the high-speed stage of running on the way after the start acceleration in the corner, and his tightly knit brows gradually relaxed, turning into an excited look. His lips twitched slightly, apparently muttering something to himself.
And Chen Zhongzhou, Zhuang Wei, Yang Yao and others next to him were not so reserved, their faces turned red one by one, and their mouths kept shouting: "Ye Qin, come on, come on!" ”
This is the men's 200m semi-final, and if he can finish in the top four of the group, Ye Qin will be able to advance to the final.
To be honest, Ye Qin had already entered the Olympic men's 200m final last year, and although the specifications of the World Championships were high, they were far inferior to the Olympics in terms of influence.
But because of this, Ye Qin's performance is more and more touching.
Feng Shuyou and Yu Weili, the two principal and deputy head coaches, looked at Ye Qin on the track at this moment, and at this moment they could feel that their hearts seemed to be clutched by something.
Last year, it was a surprise, and no one expected that Ye Qin would actually be able to enter the Olympic men's 200m final.
And in this year's World Championships, whether Ye Qin can advance to the final has become an expectation. And right now, it is the critical moment when this expectation will become a reality.
Yes, this game is even more terrifying!
Ye Qin's eyes locked on the track in front of him, trying to restrain himself from observing the positions of the other runners.
Sprinters sometimes have a hard time controlling their instinct to pay attention to the position of other opponents in the track, and this feeling is a bit like driving, where you will always inadvertently notice other people to determine whether you are ahead or behind.
Obviously, looking left and right is naturally a very big mistake, and it is a normal thing to sweep over the corner of the eye to determine your position and the position of your opponent, and it is not even the athlete who deliberately pays attention, but tells the vague feeling judgment in the run.
Ye Qin was the same at this time, he maintained his high concentration and did not deliberately understand the other opponents, but he still clearly felt their position in the fourth lane of Jax Thelin and the sixth lane Jason Gaby on the left and right.
Jax Thelin in lane 4 had already passed from behind, and at the 80 or 90m corner, the Olympic and World Championships men's 100m champion had an amazing speed ability, and he was once again overtaken by his extraordinary speed ability.
Ye Qin has a very clear judgment in his heart, although Jax Thelin has surpassed him this time, compared to the rematch, he himself finally stabilized in the first half of the game and was not too far away.
And right away, it's time to enter the straight, into the second half of the 200 meters.
100 meters, 110 meters, 120 meters......
The race entered the white-hot stage, jumping and jumping on the sidelines, and the emotions of the spectators waving various flags became more and more emotional as the runners continued to run towards the finish line.
Corners into straights!
The positions of the eight players on the field were clear at this point.
The first to enter the straight was Jax Thelin, who had very few opponents in his 100m, followed by Jason Gaby and Mauritius Stefan Buckland in lane eight.
Ye Chin was behind the three, and the fourth ran into the straight.
"There's a chance!"
At this moment, even if he didn't want to observe the positions of the other players, but the distance between the left and right runners around him was too close, and he could still easily judge the form that appeared.
At this time, there are no other thoughts in my mind, that is, to rush, to accelerate!
To get this promotion place safely, you need to be in the top four on the track, or even the top three and the top two.
Ahead is the finish line, and at this moment, Ye Qin has let go of the hesitation in his heart.
No longer deliberately thinking that there is a 400-meter semi-final today, and he will have to stay strong and release the water, now he is thinking about catching up with the others, and it is best to be able to go a little faster and rush directly to the first.
Eighty meters, seventy meters, sixty meters......
It's getting closer to the finish line.
Jason Gaby picked up speed as he entered the straight, running even faster than Jax Thering.
Both of them are extremely explosive players, and in terms of individual ability, it is obviously better than Jax Thelin, but Jax Thelin has stepped into the international competition stage very early, and after the experience of last year's Olympic Games, he is obviously more experienced.
He realized that Jason Gaby, Wallette Spearmon, and even, Yechin, would be his opponents.
So he was more consistent in the first half of the race, and his speed distribution was more reasonable, and he was more reserved in the semi-finals.
Jason Gaby was going to win the semi-finals in this group, and he had actually thought about it before the game.
This is the first time for the other party to participate in such a world-class competition, from the preliminaries to the semifinals, basically every game is extremely excited, and almost all the results are amazing, but this kind of performance, Jax Thelin is not completely optimistic.
He is aiming for the final championship in the final, and after having experienced the 100m race, the key to his final victory is to allocate his physical strength reasonably and make certain reservations.
Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters......
Jax Thelin, who has been firmly in second place since Jason Gaby overtook him, has made reservations and has his eyes on tomorrow's finale, but he is also not negligent.
He knew that someone would come up from behind at this time.
The top four qualify for the final, and he will have to at least secure himself in second or third place. This is not a preliminaries, a semi-final, there are additional places.
Thirty meters, twenty meters......
Really!
Jax Thelin didn't let go too much when he approached the finish line, but he didn't give it his all, and in such cold weather, the athletes needed more physical energy than usual to perform.
At this time, he suddenly noticed the figure around him flickering by, it was Ye Qin of the fifth realm, who suddenly rushed up at this time.
The pace was kept up very well and quickly, more fully than he wanted!
Unlike the rematch, this time Ye Qin's speed was in his plan and control, and in the last few steps, Ye Qin came up, and he didn't feel any more surprises.
His purpose has been achieved.
Rush the line!
On the big screen at the scene, the results of eight players appeared in front of everyone.
1. Sixth lane, Jason Gaby, USA, reaction 0.152, time 20.27;
2. Fifth Dao, Ye Qin, China, reaction 0.166, time 20.33;

"Beautiful!"
In the stands on the sidelines, Feng Shuyou, Yu Weili and others waved their fists fiercely at the same time, and the hearts that had been raised high finally slowly relaxed.
Ye Qin entered the men's 200-meter final of the Olympic Games last year, which can be said to be lucky and lucky, and this World Championships, Ye Qin was able to stand in the men's 200-meter final again, which is not a fluke.
It's a real personal strength, and it's also a sign that Ye Qin has stepped into the world's top sprinter.
Randy Hunter looked at Ye Chin, who was walking slowly and calming his breath in the field, and a smile appeared on his face at this time.
This time, he was not only because Ye Qin was able to advance to the finals, but he finally saw something different in Ye Qin.
