“On your marks！”

Just as the shouts and cheers of the spectators on the sidelines were blazing, the starter next to the starting line on the sidelines shouted the password.

In this group of races, the first lane is Germany's Christoph Baines, the second lane is Olympic 100m champion Jax Thelin of the United States, the third lane is France's Ronald Bonon, the fourth lane is China's Ye Chin, the fifth lane is Jamaica's Christopher Williams, the sixth lane is Australia's Daniel Portman, the seventh lane is Britain's Malone Devonish, and the eighth lane is Finland's Tommy Hatton.

Ye Qin won the fourth lane of this group of semi-finals because of his performance as the first in the preliminary group. At the moment when the starter's voice sounded, he took a light breath and slowly walked onto the starting line.

The rules for advancing to the semifinals of the men's 200m semi-finals are that the top three in each group advance directly, and then the four athletes with the best results will be replaced.

With Jax Thelin, the title seed, and Jamaican veteran Christopher Williams, Yechin was not careless about qualifying for the semi-finals. Jax Thelin's strength goes without saying, and Christopher Williams was the silver medalist in the men's 200m at the 2001 World Championships.

Among the other athletes, in addition to Tommy Hatton, the eighth lane blocker, was the British Marlon Devonish in the seventh lane. Marlon Devonish was born in 1976, almost ten years older than Yechin, and is already a veteran this year. But they did win gold in the men's 4×100m at last year's Athens Olympics and set a personal best of 20.19 seconds in 2002. In the men's 100m race that ended just a few days ago, he also ran to the semifinals, with a best time of 10.24 seconds.

Although it is a rematch, there are almost no mediocre players in the same group, and Ye Qin must at least run to the top three in this group if he wants to qualify for the semifinals at 18 o'clock tonight. With only four places in the semi-finals, it's impossible for an athlete to put his hopes of qualifying out of his control.

With his feet on the starting block, leaning over, squatting, and his fingers touching the cold surface of the runway, Ye Qin's heart gradually fell silent. He still has a relatively intuitive understanding of his men's 200-meter level, and there should be no big problem in playing normally, but there are masters in the same group, and in this case, he still has to completely cheer up.

In the second lane behind Ye Qin, Jax Thelin stood on the track and whispered softly, his eyes swept over the runners in the front corner, and his gaze gradually became calm and cold.

This rematch is not a challenge for him, many players have the impression that there is no opponent, and it is certain that he will qualify with his ability. He's thinking now about tonight's semi-final and tomorrow's final.

He came to the World Championships to win the men's 100m and 200m events, and the 100m champion, he had already won the 100m final the night before, and now there is only 200m left.

He has a clear vision for this year's competition, and as early as the National Championship qualifiers, he knew who his main opponent would be at the World Championships.

He didn't feel much of a threat to the level of other countries' competitors at this time, and the Asian player Ye Qin in front of him was counted as one, he remembered that the opponent reached the final of the Olympic Games last year, and ran 20.25 seconds in the New York Grand Prix, which is a very potential opponent, but this result was not fully regarded by him.

What he's really worried about is the challenge coming from within the USA team, one is Wallace Spearmon and the other is Jason Gaby. Wallace Spearmon is this year's NCAA 200m champion, and as an American, he knows the weight of this championship, and Wallace Spearmon is also a 20-second runner.

Another Jason Gaby, who played against him at this year's U.S. Outdoor Track and Field Championships and World Championships Trials, had a time of 20.04 seconds and a time of 20.06 seconds, and he only narrowly led the way.

And in yesterday's 200m heats, Jason Gaby ran a time of 19.99 seconds, which made him feel a lot of pressure, and there is also John Capel, a veteran, who was once the world champion in the 200m, and his form has recovered to the present, and he wants to win the gold medal in the men's 200m, and complete the feat that Morris Green has accomplished at the World Championships, there is still a lot of challenge.

Leaning over and looking down, Jax-Thelin shook his head slightly, shaking the messy thoughts out of his mind.

Anyway, let's take this 200-meter semi-race first.

“SET！”

After all the runners were ready to start, the starter slowly called out the preparatory password.

In the noisy and noisy stands, the sound had fallen silent at this moment, and everyone's eyes were on the eight runners in front of the starting line.

Syllable!

Guns!

Ye Qin started to accelerate at the moment when the gunshots rang out, and quickly sprinted out.

His starting acceleration has always been a weakness, and Randy Hunter has also optimized his starting acceleration based on his technical characteristics.

In comparison, his pace improvement in the first half of the 400m is more pronounced, and in the actual 200m race, although his starting reaction and acceleration in the first half of the race are quite improved, there is still a certain gap compared to the top competitors such as Jax Thelin, Christopher Williams and Marlon Devenish.

Jax Thelin, in particular, is an Olympic champion with a 100m time of 9.85 seconds, which is much faster than the first half of the 200m.

Twenty meters, thirty meters, forty meters......

Ye Qin felt that his speed increased a lot slower than he expected during the run, although the weather was sunny today, but the temperature was low, he could feel that although the start was good, it seemed to be a little tight to run.

Christopher Williams, who was in the fifth lane ahead of him, picked up his speed and seemed to be widening the gap with him even further.

50 meters, 60 meters, 70 meters......

The screams in the stands rose to a boil almost instantly.

Second, Jax Thelin is just too fast!

In the men's 200m, the 100m flyer showed his speed to the fullest, and almost at about 70m, Jax Thelin had already caught up with France's Ronald Bonon in lane 3 in the corner, and the opponent was still accelerating towards Yechin in lane 4.
