Chapter 799: The Diamond League
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is already the middle of August.
Guo Zizhao also took Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi two disciples this time, plus a group of logistics support personnel, and after meeting with Liu Feifei and others, more than a dozen people flew to London.
Looking at this chaotic group of people, Guo Zizhao was also quite depressed. Alas...... If your own private jet is already in hand, you don't have to go through the hassle. However, although the aircraft ordered by himself has been built, it is still in the stage of internal modification. When everything is all done, it is estimated that it will be almost the end of the year.
It seems that if you want to fly your own private jet to participate in this kind of international competition, you will have to wait until next year......
On August 13~14, the Diamond League London will officially kick off at the Crystal Palace Stadium. Because of the large number of participants registered for this station, and the fact that London has had the habit of hosting the Super Grand Prix before, the IAAF also allows the London station to have two rounds of preliminaries and finals for two days.
London is also the last leg of the Diamond League, and the top 8 players in each event will qualify for the finals after the tournament. Therefore, there are many masters who came to the final impact points in this race.
It's just that Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi are not here to attack the diamond points. This is the second time that the two have competed in an individual event, and it is impossible to get enough points. Therefore, Guo Zizhao also brought them to accumulate competition experience this time, and it was also a warm-up for next month's World Cup track and field competition.
As for Liu Feifei, this is his first international competition after the upgrade of his "physique" attribute, so he is naturally here to show his strength.
You know, in the IAAF Diamond League for nearly a month, Oliver and Merritt are in the limelight, which makes Liu Feifei, who has completely integrated the increased attribute points, how can he bear it!
Now that he has completed the phased training according to Brother Guo's requirements, his strength has not only fully recovered to his peak state, but he has also become more relaxed and comfortable. Therefore, after getting Guo Zizhao's approval, Liu Feifei's master and apprentice, who had great confidence, also signed up with Guo Zizhao's team to participate in the competition in London.
……
In the international athletics arena for more than a month, as the competition of the Diamond League continues, the men's sprint event has also begun to rise together.
In the men's 110m hurdles event that Liu Feifei is concerned about, Robles temporarily chose to rest and adjust after losing in Eugene. And Oliver chose to continue to soar after winning the championship in Eugene.
In the next races in Paris and Morocco, Oliver continued to win the championship strongly, especially in the Moroccan race, Oliver actually broke out in form, running a super perverted time of 12.89 seconds!
This time, it shook the entire international athletics world. I'll go...... 12.89 seconds! Oliver actually broke the 12.90 seconds mark and became the fourth super pervert to successfully step into the region after Guo Zizhao, Liu Feifei and Robles!
Seven steps to the bar! That's the power of the seven-step bar! Everyone couldn't help but sigh when they thought of this.
Last year, although Oliver was also the world's top hurdler, his best time was only 12.95~13 seconds. But this year, after Oliver's seven-step hurdle technique was practiced, his results have improved by at least half a grade!
In the last three Diamond League races, Oliver's winning times were 12.93 seconds, 12.95 seconds and 12.89 seconds, which is no longer below Robles, who is still beautiful this year, and even has one more number of victories than Robles!
Robles' first three races were 12.92 seconds, 12.90 seconds and 12.97 seconds, although he won the first two races, but he was carelessly lost to Oliver in Eugene.
If the evenly matched rivalry between these two international top players wasn't enough to prove the power of the seven-step hurdle technique, Aris reappeared on the international stage in mid-July. Merritt surprised everyone even more.
13.02 seconds! 12.97 seconds!
After disappearing for more than half a year, Merritt also made the world look at this guy with kidney disease again with his skillful seven-step hurdle and amazing results in the Diamond League in Paris and Morocco! At the same time, he has also successfully become one of the top international hurdlers!
Even some media are still ridiculing speculation that it is precisely because of Merritt's sudden rise and pressing step by step that Oliver also felt great pressure, so he ran a perverted time of 12.89 seconds in Morocco.
With these two excellent results, Merritt also won the runner-up of the two Diamond Leagues, and the limelight even overshadowed the old top masters Doucoure and Trammell.
Such an amazing performance of the opponents naturally stimulated Liu Feifei and Robles, so in the London competition, these two masters both chose to return to the competition, which also made the competition more eye-catching.
……
In addition to the men's 110m hurdles, the men's 100m and 200m events are also the same.
After Powell won the 100m in Doha for the first time, he began to be abused by Bolt and Guy in turn.
With his strong strength, Bolt naturally easily won the three 100-meter championships in Beijing, Oslo and New York, and even if they were as strong as Guy and Powell, they only won the second place in the last two stops. As for Carter, Thompson, Bailey and the like, they are only lucky to compete for a third place.
But in Paris in mid-July, Usain Bolt only ran 9.94 seconds, suffering his first defeat in this year's race! And after the game, Bolt announced that he would withdraw from all remaining Diamond League games due to a back muscle strain.
Guy, who performed average in Paris, was lucky to have unexpectedly picked up the 100-meter championship at this station with an international top time of 9.84 seconds. Powell, on the other hand, was only 0.02 seconds slower than Guy and could only be depressed in second place, while Thompson was lucky to win another third place.
In the men's 200m, it was even more chaotic, with Bolt winning two of the previous five races, as well as Guy, Dix and Spearmon, each winning one. However, with Bolt's injury and retirement, Guy also focused on competing for the 100-meter sprint, and also withdrew from the competition for the last stop in Morocco.
Dix, on the other hand, had the last laugh in the competition with Spearmon, winning the Moroccan championship again and entering the finals with the advantage of ranking first in the total points.
It's just that who can win the final championship depends on the competition between the two in the finals. Because according to the IAAF regulations, the points of the top three in the finals are doubled, 8 points, 4 points and 2 points respectively. Therefore, although Spearmon won one less stage than Dix, it is only a 4-point gap, and if he can win the finals in Zurich, it is still possible to turn the points around.
However, the 200-meter event has nothing to do with Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi, the competition of the 6 sub-stations has ended, and Zhang Peimeng has not participated in a single station, so it is naturally impossible to qualify for the finals. Therefore, in this London race, the two set their sights on the men's 100-meter sprint.
Because, not long after everyone got off the plane, an unexpected situation occurred, which also made it possible for Zhang Peimeng and Lao Yi to participate in the men's 100-meter sprint finals!
