The members of the Chinese team participating in this year's Indoor World Championships are basically some old faces that Guo Zizhao is familiar with.

Chen Haijian and Shen Yunbao also competed in the men's 60m again. After winning the relay championship at last year's World Championships, these two are now in a very full state of mind.

Especially Shen Yunbao, who is old and strong, although he is 28 years old this year, he also won two 60-meter championships in the just-concluded domestic indoor track and field series. This year's best time was 6.60 seconds, which was even better than last year's performance. Therefore, everyone is also full of expectations for his performance at this World Indoor Championships.

What makes Guo Zizhao regret is that another veteran Chen Yanhao is absent. Chen Yanhao, who is 32 years old this year, can be regarded as a thorough veteran. Being able to maintain his peak state until now was also unexpected by Chen Yanhao.

But even so, Chen Yanhao is now suffering from injuries, and his physical strength and energy are unable to cope with the long-term running around the game. Therefore, in order to be in a better state to meet the Olympic Games in August, Chen Yanhao also had to give up all the international competitions this year. It's just a matter of recuperation, training, and two more national Grand Prix warm-ups.

And the one who replaced Chen Yanhao to get this quota is, of course, the young player Shi Dongpeng, who Guo Zizhao is familiar with.

However, in Guo Zizhao's view, Shi Dongpeng's speed, strength and endurance are good, but flexibility and coordination need to be strengthened. Therefore, in the 110-meter hurdles, Shi Dongpeng still has a bit of an advantage, but for the 60-meter hurdles, which require more technical and explosive power, the results may be a little worse.

……

As for the other international contestants, Alain. Johnson and several other hurdlers are basically here. Three months later, we met again and had a good chat.

However, Morris. Green was again out of the game. The former "Flying Man of the World" is now plagued by tendonitis, and the number of international competitions he participates in each year is gradually decreasing.

As for Montgomery, which was once glorious in the past two years, it is now even more unlucky. Since his defeat at last year's World Championships in Paris, the buddy's sprinting results have taken a sharp turn for the worse. This year, he didn't even pass the trials for the World Indoor Championships.

Such an abnormal performance also further strengthened everyone's suspicion that Montgomery had used doping.

In addition to these two people, old opponents such as Gatlin, Chambers, Gardner, Collins and Obikviru are all here, but everyone is obviously more interested in Guo Zizhao's remarks in an interview with the media a few days ago.

"Are you really sure you can break another world record?" Obi Keviru also had a look of disbelief on his face.

"That's it!" Guo Zizhao also said in a stinky way, "I had the strength to break the record last year, but, hehe...... I'm going to put it all together this year! ”

"You just blow it......" Gardner also coaxed, "Wouldn't it have broken long ago if you have the strength?" Why wait until now? ”

"You know what a!" Guo Zizhao was also stunned by this guy in vain, and said proudly, "How is it Lao Tzu's style to make a little fuss?" Lao Tzu plans to put all the records in this year to break this year, how shocking it is! ”

"I'm ...... All put in a year to break? Gardner was also surprised and asked, "Don't tell me the outdoor record, you plan to break it this year?" That's a bit of a brag, isn't it? ”

"That's it, that's it!" Others are also unbelievable about this, to know that Guo Zizhao's records in the outdoor competition are really amazing. Those experts even predict that Guo Zizhao's world records are unlikely to be broken again in at least ten years.

Now Guo Zizhao actually said that he wanted to break them all again, is this possible?

……

At the 2001 World Championships in Edmonton, Guo Zizhao set world records in the men's 100m, 200m, 400m and 110m hurdles at once, which can be said to have shocked the whole world.

A year later, at the World Cup in Athletics, Guo Zizhao once again set new world records in the men's 100m and 110m hurdles with amazing results.

It's only been a few years, Guo Zizhao actually said that he can break these world records again? It's incredible, isn't it?

Among the current world records, the world record for the men's 100m is 9.69 seconds, the 200m is 19.30 seconds, the 400m is 43.15 seconds, and the 110m hurdles is 12.82 seconds.

It can be said that Guo Zizhao is the only player in the international athletics world who can run within 9.70 seconds in the 100-meter hurdles and 12.90 seconds in the 110-meter hurdles. In these two events alone, the gap between the other players and Guo Zizhao is at least more than 0.1 seconds, but I didn't expect Guo Zizhao to be still not satisfied?

Not to mention the 200-meter and 400-meter events. Today's international athletics has shrunk in the men's 200m and 400m events.

Judging from the international competitions in the past two years, that is, the American star Sean. Crawford, in the men's 200m, has the ability to run under 20 seconds. And the men's 400 meters, in Michael. After Johnson retired, Guo Zizhao was the only player who could run under 44 seconds.

Thinking of this, these players are also cold. I didn't expect Guo Zizhao to have such a huge advantage in the sprint event now, and he is still so dissatisfied! I even want to break the world record again this year! It's a crazy idea......

……

Soon, the competition of this year's World Indoor Championships officially began.

Guo Zizhao has to complete a total of 12 races in four events in the three-day schedule, and the time schedule is still quite tight.

The first day of competition for the track event was basically the preliminaries and semi-finals. All of Guo Zizhao's entries were naturally easy to pass.

The performance of the rest of the national team is also very satisfying. Chen Haijian, Shen Yunbao, Liu Feifei and Shi Dongpeng also successfully entered the semifinals.

However, after the semifinals on the second day, Chen Haijian and Shi Dongpeng were out again. Shen Yunbao and Liu Feifei worked with Guo Zizhao to successfully break into the men's 60m and 60m hurdles finals held in the evening.

This result is also expected by everyone, after all, Chen Haijian's main event has always been the 100-meter sprint, and the indoor 60-meter event has never been his strong point. And Shi Dongpeng participated in such a world competition for the first time, and he was able to enter the semi-finals, which can be regarded as a qualified performance.

The two finals of the men's 60m and 60m hurdles in the evening also attracted strong attention from sports media and sports enthusiasts around the world.

Guo Zizhao threatened to break the world records in these two events a week ago, and now it is time to see the truth immediately. Can you not pay attention?

The world record in the indoor 60-meter sprint is 6.37 seconds run by Guo Zizhao at the 2001 Lisbon Indoor World Championships! Among the active athletes, in addition to Guo Zizhao, that is, the former old flyer Green, who has twice run a time of 6.39 seconds.

The world record in the 60m hurdles is still 7.28 seconds run by Guo Zizhao at the Birmingham World Indoor Championships last year! At the same time, Guo Zizhao is also the only player who can run in 7.30 seconds in this event.

Therefore, the high level of these two world records is also recognized by the world. When Guo Zizhao threatened to break his two records again, all the media's remarks were also cautious and even skeptical.

After all, Guo Zizhao has rarely participated in international indoor competitions in the past two years, and Guo Zizhao has never run similar results since he created these two world records. So in everyone's opinion, Guo Zizhao was able to create this record back then, just catching up with the state explosion!

Even some of the more extreme Western media ridiculed Guo Zizhao in their reports, "Guo Zizhao made two extremely ridiculous predictions at the end of last year, and now he is threatening to break the world record again." Hehe...... It seems that the once king of sprinting has now become a braggart king! can only rely on such means to sensationalize and attract everyone's attention......"
