Chapter 351: The Changing International Arena
After the end of the Indoor World Championships, Guo Zizhao returned to China with the army this time.
Guo Zizhao is not going to participate in many international events this year, except for the just-concluded Indoor World Championships, which is the Outdoor Track and Field World Championships in August and the World Universiade in early September.
The World Athletics Championships must be participated, the World Universiade, Guo Zizhao's purpose is to participate in a 4x100m relay championship. This is to complete the hidden regulations of the system, otherwise, Guo Zizhao would not want to bully people in a low-level competition like the Universiade.
Therefore, when Guo Zizhao proposed to participate in the World Universiade this year, even his father and Song Ping were surprised.
"Is there a mistake with your baby! They are all the kings of sprinting in the world, and they still run to participate in these races, isn't it anti-aircraft guns to fight mosquitoes! "Dad is also very strange about Guo Zizhao's request.
"That's it! The World Universiade the year before last was held in Beijing, and this was a political task, so we must participate in it. What are you going to do this year? Song Ping also asked curiously, "Isn't your baby now even selectively participating in the Golden League and the IAAF Grand Prix?" Why are you running to join in the fun? ”
"Yo...... At the World Universiade the year before last, the relay race was not a violation! I'm going to win this relay championship back! Guo Zizhao also swore an oath, "I won't participate in other events this time, just participate in a relay race." Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, this champion Lao Tzu won't be able to get it! ”
You're a fool......
Dad and Song Ping also pouted, and glanced at Guo Zizhao with a slanted glance with a pair of eyes that looked at the young man. Make it up, you just make it up for Lao Tzu......
Guo Zizhao saw that everyone looked like this, so he simply stopped talking nonsense, and directly played Lai, "I just want to participate in a relay race, is there anything I can't do?" I'm going, I'm going to ......."
"Gotcha! Just go, what are you sprinkling...... Who made you our boss? Song Ping also looked wry, "Your shameless appearance now really has the style of my youth......"
"That's it! Who made our two families relatives now! Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black! Guo Zizhao also immediately complained, "Then this matter is decided!" ”
"...... I don't have a relative as shameless as you. ”
……
After returning to China for less than a month to rest, Guo Zizhao and others had to fly to Tehran again.
It turned out that in mid-April this year, the first Asian Indoor Athletics Championships opened in Tehran, the capital of Iran. As the most famous track and field athlete in Asia, Guo Zizhao also received a warm invitation from the Asian Athletics Federation early.
There is no way, the face of the Asian Athletics Federation still has to be given. Besides, this is also the first indoor competition, and I still have to go to the platform. Although there are no system rewards for this level of competition, Guo Zizhao still spent a few days to be a finale star.
In the next two months, Guo Zizhao honestly lived in school to attend classes, train and train, and go out to run a commercial promotion day when he had nothing to do. It's a pleasant comparison......
In July, Guo Zizhao finally started this year's international schedule again. Before the World Athletics Championships in late August, in the past two months, Guo Zizhao plans to participate in a three-stop Golden League and a four-stop Grand Prix.
Now Guo Zizhao has long passed the time to prove himself with competitions and results. One of the reasons for participating in the competition is to earn some competition points in order to maintain his international ranking. Second, it is also to meet the requirements of advertising spokespersons. After all, you have to participate in a certain number of international competitions every year to maintain your exposure.
As for the competition events, the Golden League has 100m and 110m hurdles this year, so Guo Zizhao participated in both. The remaining 200m and 400m had to be put on the Grand Prix.
。。。。。。
In the past two months of competition, Guo Zizhao has naturally won the championship all the way, and no opponent can pose the slightest threat to himself.
In this year's men's 100-meter sprint results, except for Guo Zizhao, who has maintained a stable and excellent performance, other people's results have seen a big decline.
"Old Flyer" Morris. Green's form this year has been up and down. Due to the impact of injury, this buddy even gave up the indoor World Championships this year, but the final recovery effect was not satisfactory.
It is estimated that he is afraid that under the full play, it will cause a recurrence of tendonitis, so Green is a little bit of a gain and loss when he is playing. His best time this year was just 9.91 seconds. But even so, this result is the best result except for Guo Zizhao.
Another player who surprised people was Montgomery, who was in the limelight two years ago. This one was also not involved in the World Indoor Championships in March because of his involvement with his coach.
And in the months since, Montgomery has been out of form in all competitions. Not only does it not have the strength to run within 9.80 seconds in the previous two years, but even the number of times it can run within 10 seconds is very rare.
Especially in early July, when his girlfriend Jones gave birth to a son for Montgomery, this buddy completely disappeared from the international arena and went home to become a competent dad.
It wasn't until the last stop of the World Championships, the British Grand Prix, that the buddy made a belated comeback. But the funny thing is that Montgomery only ran a time of 10.20 seconds and didn't even make it to the final. It's a shame......
……
However, unlike the performance of these veterans, several newcomers in the 100-meter sprint who appeared in the international arena this year made people's eyes shine. First among them is Justin, who won the second place at the World Indoor Championships in March. Gatling too.
In the men's 100m race of the Golden League, the athlete won one race and finished second in two races. Lost at the hands of Guo Zizhao and Green, respectively. At the same time, he also won the second place in the men's 100m and 200m at the Grand Prix. It can be said that he is the best rookie player this year.
And another American newcomer, Tyson. Guy's performance, although somewhat tepid, was also a runner-up in the 100m at two Grand Prix.
In addition, Chen Haijian and Darrell also appeared at the "Top 100-meter Flying Gathering" at the end of last year. Brown.
Although Chen Haijian's results in the 60-meter dash are average, his results in the 100-meter dash are very good, and the current result has stabilized within 10.15 seconds, and he is only one foot away from the 10.10 seconds mark. Darrell, Trinidad and Tobago. Brown, the results are slightly better than Chen Haijian, and the few races are swinging around 10.10 seconds.
In addition to these few, Guo Zizhao also found another familiar name among the contestants in the international competition, Asafa . Powell.
……
Tut-tut...... This is the last of the Big Three in '82. Powell's best time this year has reached 10.02 seconds, and he is also a good young sprinter. I just don't know what kind of results Powell can run at this year's World Championships!
Hey...... Speaking of which, this buddy has repeatedly broken world records in the history of his previous life. But when it comes to the Olympics or the World Championships, there is always an inexplicable situation where you are either out of shape or out injured.
Anyway, in Powell's life, although it can be regarded as an infinite scenery, the only regret is that he did not win any World Series championships. I hope this buddy can change this tragic fate in this life......
Hey...... No, there is Lao Tzu in this life, no matter what he is in the Big Three in 82 or the Five Tigers, there is no day to get ahead! Hey......
