The four giants of the 200 self showed strong strength in the semi-finals, and all easily advanced to the finals.

In the subsequent semifinals of the men's 200-meter butterfly, Wu Peng, the king of butterfly swimming specializing in 200 butterflies, appeared. Starting from today, including Ye Shiwen in the women's group, all the kings have appeared, and the championship has reached the 4th match day, and Gao Chao has fully exploded.

As the king of 200 butterflies, Wu Peng did not participate in the preliminaries, but directly advanced to the semifinals. In the 200 butterfly semi-finals group 1 competition, Wu Diewang won the first place in the group without any suspense and took the lead in advancing to the finals.

200 butterfly semi-finals in the second group, Du Ke and Wang Shun are divided into a group again, the two are related, in the 200 semi-finals just now, Du Ke won the first place in the group, in this 200 butterfly semi-finals, the last 50 meters Du Ke lowered the frequency and gave the first place in the group to Wang Shun.

After Wang Shun went ashore, he expressed dissatisfaction with Du Ke's release behavior, and the two agreed to show their real skills in the finals, and they had a real fight with real knives and guns.

After the butterfly semifinals, after a one-and-a-half-hour break, at 18 o'clock in the evening, the 200-meter backstroke semifinals began.

Duke played in Group 1 of the 200 back semi-finals and made it to the final.

After the men's 200 back semi-finals group 2 and the two women's 200 back semi-finals, the referee team began to prepare for the change of group, and the crowd began to boil over because the men's 100m freestyle final was about to begin.

Today's Zhongyuan City Natatorium is full, the stands that can accommodate 4,500 people are full, and the media area is also crowded with reporters, long guns and short cannons have been set up, just to capture that exciting moment.

For the first time, Duke was placed in lane 2, while his two strong opponents, Ning Zetao and Lu Zhiwu, were in lanes 4 and 5.

Duke saved his strength in the semi-finals of the 100-free, as he had cramps before the semi-finals and his semi-final finish was fifth, so he was placed in lane 2 in the final.

Even if Duke was placed in lane 2, no one doubted his prowess, and as the first and only Asian to swim under 48 seconds in the event, Duke was widely regarded as the favourite by spectators and media alike.

Of course, there is also Ning Zetao, who lost to Du Ke by 0.01 seconds in the 50-meter freestyle final the day before yesterday.

Lu Zhiwu only signed up for two events, the 50 free and the 100 freestyle, and he finished third in the 50 free in the final, and the veteran team member who once singled the Chinese men's sprint freestyle event seems to be slowly being forgotten.

In the VIP area of the stands, the five coaches of the national team are still squatting here, they squat here every day, not late or leave early, quite professional and dedicated.

Director Pei pointed to the starting area and asked Zhou Jianlin: "The 50 meters to 400 meters of freestyle are all under your supervision, will you recruit Ning Zetao into the national team?" ”

Zhou Jianlin thought for a while and said, "If he can maintain this good condition, I think he will." ”

"What about Duke?" Director Pei asked again, and then he laughed self-deprecatingly: "I asked a question with a very low IQ...... Duke will definitely be brought into the new national training team, even if you don't let him go to freestyle, I will let him go to the backstroke, and Lao He will also let him go to the breaststroke. ”

"It's hard for Duke to think about it, especially in the sprint freestyle." Zhou Jianlin shook his head and smiled, he said a little entangled: "In the past, no one was available, but now I am entangled in who should be sent, why not just two?" ”

Coach Pei: "Didn't you say that you only look at the results, only look at the state, and whoever performs well will lead to the death of the championship." So what are you struggling with? ”

"Yes, I'll do what I say, just ...... Hey, how to say it, I can't bear it, hey, it's a little unbearable. ”

"Sometimes we can't help it, there are so many good players, but the number of places is limited, and it's hard to choose who to change. It's like a table tennis team, our sparring partners are put in other countries, and they are all characters of one brother and one sister, but ...... Hey, the competitive mechanism is like this, and we can only abide by the rules of the game. If Lu Zhiwu still can't swim past the other two younger ones in this 100 freestyle final, can he really only participate in a 4*100m freestyle relay race? I mean the World Championships. ”

"Lao Pei, don't bother me, watch the game, and then talk after watching it!"

……

In the starting area, the eight finalists have already gotten on the jumping platform, waiting to start.

In lane 2, Douc has all four of his stunts available, and in the 100-meter freestyle, all four stunts can be fully opened.

Ning Zetao in lane 4 has gradually gained some fame, and he is a local player and a soldier, which has greatly improved his impression in the minds of local audiences. He calls himself Baozi, but the audience prefers to call him Xiao Xianrou. Ning Zetao is full of energy, and he is ready to make a big splash in this 100 self final, as this is his last individual event.

Lu Zhiwu in lane 5, he looked calm, but no one knew that the eyes in the diving goggles had ignited high fighting spirit.

That's when the start order sounds, and the race begins!

Eight competitors took off at the same time, and Duke took off with a stunt to maintain the lead to 35 meters.

In the last 15 meters of the future, Ning Zetao broke out strongly and caught up with Du Ke before turning around, and the two completed the turn almost at the same time.

Douc turned the dolphin around, and after turning around, he continued to maintain his suppressive momentum, leading the swim back 50 meters.

Du Ke is in the 2nd swimming lane, next door to him is Ning Zetao, and next door is Lu Zhiwu, anyway, he can't observe the swimming lanes of Ning and Lu, all he can do is to implement the established tactics, after turning around, he drove a big waterwheel and 8 legs at the same time, sprinting with all his might!

Zhou Jianlin in the VIP area of the stands has already stood up, and he can see the situation in the pool from his perspective very clearly.

In the last 20 meters, Zhou Jianlin saw that Du Ke still maintained the lead, and at this time, Lu Zhiwu, who had been in the third, suddenly broke out and pursued at a very fast speed.

Lu Zhiwu began to sprint with all his strength with an extremely high-frequency rhythm of hitting water, and he risked his old life to fight.

In the last ten meters, Lu Zhiwu had already caught up with Ning Zetao, and there was still a small distance of half a body from Du Ke.

In the last five meters, Lu Zhiwu surpassed Ning Zetao and approached Du Ke.

If you give Lu Zhiwu another five meters, with his rhythm of playing with his life, maybe he will surpass Du Ke.

But there were no more five meters, and Douc touched the wall first and took the first place.

Lu Zhiwu touched the wall second, and Ning Zetao won third.

After all 8 contestants touched the wall, the results were brushed out.

Duke won the championship in 47.55 seconds and broke his own Asian record of 47.89 seconds.

Although the crowd was expecting Duco to break the world record, the men's 100 self-set world record of 46.91 seconds set by Brazilian giants Ciero Ferro, which was called "the limit of humanity" by swimming authorities, was too difficult to break.

Lu Zhiwu finished second with a time of 48.01 seconds, and he almost touched his limit, almost swimming into 48 seconds.

Ning Zetao won the third place with a time of 48.19 seconds, and he looked a little annoyed and dissatisfied with his performance after arriving at the side.

"Duke is consistent and he keeps improving, and he surprises me every game. Ning Zetao wanted to win too much, so he lost, and his rhythm after he turned around was a little chaotic. Lu Zhiwu...... I don't make a technical assessment of him, except to say that he deserves respect. Zhou Jianlin made the above comments on the 100 self final.
