Chapter 466: History III
While a few people were talking on the sidelines, the voices in the Louis Pugh Stadium suddenly boiled, and the eight players in the men's 60-meter final on the big screen had appeared in front of everyone.
First Lane, Simon Williamson, UK;
the second way, Kim Collins, Saint Kitts and Nevis;
Third Way, David Chambers, England;
Fourth, Yechin, China;
Fifth Way, Michael Rogers, USA;
Sixth Lane, Orusoki-Fasuba, Nigeria;
Seventh lane, Lima Vicente, Brazil;
Eighth Lane, Isaac Uche, Nigeria;
Compared with the men's 60m competition at the World Indoor Championships in previous years, this year's 60m final is obviously much higher than in previous years.
Ye Qin stood on the starting line of the fourth lane, feeling the lively and boiling atmosphere of the scene, and had a different feeling in his heart.
Compared with the outdoor competition, although the indoor track and field stadium has a lot fewer spectators, due to the restrictions of the venue, the atmosphere of the scene is more and more lively.
"Champion!"
Ye Qin looked at the cushion used to block himself and the others outside the finish line in front of him, and his eyes gradually became cold.
Through today's two preliminaries and semi-finals, he already has a clear understanding of his strength in the 60m, breaking the 60m world record Ye Qin does not have this idea for the time being, but the two games have benefited him a lot.
Gradually, he has found the knack for running in the first 60 meters, and the middle and second half of the race, which he used to excel at, often won in the second half, but after a few months of winter training, combined with the 60m races and training, he has been able to have a good quality in the first half.
Although he has not officially started racing in the men's 100m race this year, Ye Qin has a lot of confidence in his 100m strength after two 60m races.
Before the starting line, several other top athletes, who were also Ye Chin's opponents, also felt a lot of pressure.
Needless to say, athletes like David Chambers who are currently in a difficult situation and hope to use this World Indoor Championships to make their situation better in the future.
Athletes like Orusoki Fasuba and Kim Collins are also under pressure for Yechin.
This year is the year of the competition, and there will be the Olympics in August, and it is normal for Ye Qin to maintain his condition by participating in the competition during this time period.
Ye Qin is not a nobody, everyone has analyzed and understood Ye Qin's technical characteristics in recent years, and Ye Qin is stronger than the first half of the speed in the second half.
But this time, Ye Qin's performance in the 60-meter preliminaries and finals really shocked many people's jaws.
Kim Collins, the 2003 World Championships men's 100m champion, is a veteran in his thirties this year, and has also faced off against Ye Qin many times, and he knows Ye Chin's technical characteristics very well.
I really didn't expect Ye Qin to improve so significantly in this race, he is no longer the most competitive player in the men's 100m field, but in the 60m track, he is still a strong contender for the indoor championship.
Olusoki Fasuba is expected of Yechin's performance, he is currently the best sprinter in Africa, and has played against Yechin, Jason Gaby, Asafavir, and even the banned Jax Thelin and other top runners of the new generation.
He knows that players like Ye Qin are desperately trying to improve themselves in order to be able to compete for the title at the Olympics this year. At present, it seems that Yechin's progress is very obvious.
“On your marks!”
A sound of each other in place sounded on the sidelines.
The voices of the Spanish audience suddenly became quieter, and their eyes fell on the 60-meter starting line.
For this 60-meter final, everyone has gradually changed from the mentality of watching the 60-meter flyer before the game to seeing what kind of results Ye Qin, the new world flyer, can run.
For a top sprinter, what kind of performance he can perform in a major competition has always been highly anticipated.
Everyone will be watching to see if he can beat his opponents, whether he will make mistakes, whether he will suddenly set new records, etc., all of which are the influence of top sports stars.
Ye Qin adjusted his breathing slightly, tapped his muscles slightly, and slowly walked onto the runner.
Lean over and bow your head.
In an instant, he seemed to have put away all the strength of his body, and the whole person squatted in front of the starting line, quietly waiting for the gunfire of the race.
“SET!”
A voice on the field reminding the players to prepare suddenly sounded at this time.
Ye Qin's movements slowly changed from squatting to squatting start, and the seven runners on the same starting line also put on a squatting start.
Syllable!
Match guns rang out.
In the audience, at this moment, everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on the starting line.
At the moment when Ye Qin fired the gunshot, the muscles of his whole body suddenly exploded like gunpowder, and he quickly rushed out of the starting line.
10 meters, 20 meters......
In a short start to accelerate, Ye Qin rushed out from the starting line like a cheetah, and David Chambers, who was beside Ye Qin, only felt a "buzz" at this moment, and Ye Qin shot out at a high speed.
Thirty meters, forty meters......
All the spectators present only felt a flower in front of them, and saw that Ye Qin was already ahead of the other runners and rushed towards the finish line quickly.
"Ye Qin is going to win again?!"
Watching the game, almost instantly, a feeling rose in the hearts of Ye Qin that he was about to win.
And in an instant, on the field, I saw a red voice as fast as lightning, from the start, like an electric light, with a speed obviously ahead of other runners, speeding across the track.
In this group of races, Ye Qin had already increased his speed to the fastest after twenty meters, and the whole person ran completely, without thinking about where the final finish line was.
"Wow!"
At this moment, all of a sudden, the audience let out an exclamation.
Ye Qin's whole person was like a bolt of lightning, and after crossing the finish line, he had no way to reduce his speed at all, and directly hit the soft cushion that prevented the runners from being injured.
Champion!
Ye Qin was very sure that the moment he crossed the finish line, there was no one else around, he was the first to cross the finish line!
Immediately after Ye Qin, the sound of puff puff hitting the cushion one after another sounded.
At this time, the cheers of the audience rang out again.
On the on-site timing board, the men's 60m championship result of the 2008 World Indoor Championships has appeared.
6.42 seconds!
Liu Yangyu and Shi Dongpeng, who saw this achievement, couldn't help but gasp.
"This ...... Ye Qin's progress is a bit fierce! ”
Shi Dongpeng couldn't believe his eyes, just the two joked that Ye Qin broke the 60-meter world record, but the joke was just a joke, and now seeing the result of 6.42 seconds was enough to make him feel surprised.
Liu Yangyu's breathing became a little short for a while, the 60-meter indoor world championship, Ye Qin won another indoor championship, and the pressure on him was not small.
On the other side, Coach Sun Chaosheng looked at Ye Qin's running of 6.42 seconds, his eyes were also wide-eyed, if Ye Qin ran 6.50 seconds and 6.47 seconds in the preliminaries and semi-finals, it was still within his acceptable range, but the result of 6.42 seconds already made him feel a little amazed.
In the current best time in the 60m, Morris Green's two times of 6.39 seconds are at the top, followed by American Andre Carson in 1992 with a time of 6.41 seconds.
And Ye Qin, who ran 60 meters in 6.42 seconds at this group of indoor World Championships, replaced the original American Tim Harden's 6.43 seconds, becoming the third fastest person in history in the 60-meter event.
Although he failed to break Morris Green's world record, the difference of 0.03 seconds, as well as Yechin's results in the 100m and 200, was enough to make everyone feel frightened at this time!
"Ye Qin doesn't know how much he can run in 100 meters now?"
Yuan Guohua instantly smiled after seeing the 60-meter results, but there was no surprise in his eyes.
From October last year to March this year, it has been half a year, and Ye Qin has improved significantly in all aspects, whether he is training at IMG Academy or in China.
To be able to run such a result in the 60m was within his expectations.
It's just that the 60-meter Yechin lift is so huge, so what about the 100-meter event?!
"Asafavir's world record is 9.74 seconds, can Yechin break it this year?"
