Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info was followed by Lu Ming and Russia's Porketev, who tied for second place with 63.2 rings. As for Liu Gang, another veteran of the Chinese team, he missed the standard on the fourth shot, only hitting 8.2 rings. This also completely deprived him of the opportunity to compete for medals, and at the same time focused all the pressure on Lu Ming.

Eighth round, 3, 2, 1...

Bang!

Lu Ming raised his gun and pressed down, and once again took the lead to complete the first shot on the field. 10.5 rings, normal level. So far, the situation on the field is still changing rapidly. No one can guarantee that they will have the last laugh.

"How can this Chinese play so steadily? It's the eighth shot, and I haven't missed a single one. Russian Pometev was extremely depressed when he heard that he had only fired 10.1 rings in his eighth shot. With just one shot, he opened up the gap with Lu Ming and slipped to third place.

The difference of 0.4 rings, especially the last few shots in the final, had a huge impact on the result. For a while, Bo Meitev's mood fluctuated one after another, and it was difficult to calm down. It has reached the last critical moment, and it is difficult for even the top players to be unfazed.

"The biggest opponent to win the championship this time is this Chinese. That American Emmons, I'm afraid the last two robes will be wrong. Portekf looked at the bullseye in front of him, and it took a long time to calm down. Emmons also hit just 10.2 rings on the eighth shot, showing signs of instability. In the entire arena, only Lu Ming has maintained a steady shot.

In recent years, Russia has regressed greatly in shooting at the Olympics. However, from emerging countries such as South Korea, Japan, and Australia, the shooting strength is growing rapidly. Today, the only event that can hold up the façade is the 50-meter rifle prone shot. Since the start of the World Shooting Championships, Russia has only won three Olympic quotas. Therefore, this battle is crucial for both Pometev and the Russian shooting team.

"I'll be able to!" Bometev took deep breaths, trying to ease the growing pressure and tension. Hanging in the air on the right, holding the rifle. The left hand, left elbow and left shoulder form a solid butt triangle and begin to prepare for the ninth shot.

The coaching area, where the shooting team was located, was also silent at this time. Everyone was nervous, looking at Lu Ming's figure on the field. In the history of shooting, there is no shortage of incidents where the last two shots have missed and fallen into the top three. Until the last moment, no one dares to really put their minds at ease.

And Liu Gang's mistake in the fourth ring made the shooting team pin all their hopes on Lu Ming. Whether the shooting team can make a historic breakthrough at the World Championships depends on these last two shots.

Bang! Bang! ...

This time it was Russia's Porketev who was the first to shoot a bullet. Immediately after that, it was Lu Ming. As for Emmons, the shot time was still in the middle of the pack with eight competitors.

Ninth round of shooting

Player 1 (Emmons) 10.3 rings, Player 2 (Lu Ming) 10.4 rings, Player 3 (Pometef) 10.4 rings, Player 4....

The standings on the big screen have been updated again, and Lu Ming has caught up with Emmons and tied for first place! At this time, Coach Hu didn't dare to look at Lu Ming's last shot. In the media area, the organic-looking reporter took out his camera and quietly pointed it at Emmons' wife, Katarina. In shooting competitions, it is impossible for the media to take frontal footage of athletes on the field, except for specially fixed cameras.

And Emmons' title of King of Nine Guns for so many years has made many people look forward to his last shot. Whether the mistake is repeated or not, Katarina's expression will be a highlight of the competition.

"Eh, I'm going to win!" Liu Min sat in his position, looked at the figure on the field, and muttered to himself. If Lu Ming wins this time, it means that her interview may be supported by the editor-in-chief.

"Steady! Little Lou. The old coach said silently in his heart. In the last shot, the competition is the athlete's ability to withstand pressure. Almost every player has reached the last shot, and the psychological pressure has reached the limit. This is where the lightness that a 21-gram bolt cannot bear comes from.

The force of the finger buckle on the bolt will go off as soon as it exceeds 21 grams. Strictly speaking, it does not refer to the real fire in the technical sense, but the interpretation of "fire in the heart". More than 21 grams means that the mental tolerance exceeds the limit, and naturally the next shot will be greatly off-standard.

On the field, Lu Ming's shoulders began to relax, maintaining the pull coordination with the gun belt. At the same time, he held the butt of the gun with his left hand, kept the position, strength, and surface of the gun in unison, and began to shoot the last shot. Heaven to the left, hell to the right, success or failure is only a brief moment when the finger pulls the trigger. Sometimes, the joys and sorrows of a person's life are the same as pulling the trigger, at the intersection of fate, and are brutally finalized by a short 0.01-second decision.

Competitive sports have always been like this, there is no choice, no replay. What everyone can do is to continue to walk on the track laid by fate and move forward. Regret, regret, or hatred...

Bang! Bang! ...

As the shooting rang out, there was an uproar on and off the field. Emmons made another habitual error, hitting a 9.7 ring. And Caterina in the audience, with no expression, no joy or sorrow, seems to have become accustomed to his mistakes. This scene was also captured by the camera shutter.

Lu Ming looked at the lost Emmons on the side, wanting to comfort but not knowing how to say it. In his previous life, shortly after the World Championships, Emmons was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Since then, he has fallen into a low point in his shooting career. But he didn't give up, but went to a hospital in New York and had surgery to remove his thyroid. After recovering physically, he re-raised his rifle.

As a shooter, Emmons was also one of the few famous players that Lu Ming admired in his previous life. Although he has the demon of the last shot, that doesn't stop him from being a great shooter. He has broken the world record several times, is a Grand Slam player, and has a gold medal in the United States. Even if there is a mistake, it doesn't mean that everyone can laugh at it.
