Chapter 439: A breaststroke duel that can go down in history

August 4th, the third day of the swimming competition. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The preliminaries during the day went relatively smoothly, and there were no further upsets.

Tickets for tonight's night game have been inflated to a high level because there are so many things to see tonight

Russian women's breaststroke star Efimova will challenge the world record holder in the women's 100 breaststroke final, and the Russian crowd will of course support the local girl Efimova.

Huo Sizu, who just broke the women's 200 mixed world record yesterday, will compete in the women's 100 back final tonight, and it is worth looking forward to whether the Iron Lady can continue to be hot.

The women's 1500 free final, which may be Ledecky's solo show, said she will do her best to break her own women's 1500 free world record.

The men's 200 free final, it can be said that there are three generations of masters, including Lochette, Biederman, Duke, Sun Yang, Kosuke Hagino, and James Gay.

In the men's 100 breaststroke final, Duke, Vanderbergh and Adam Peaty are arguably the best 100 breaststroke players in life and history. The trio are torn apart, Duke and Vanderbergh are rumored to be at odds, and the emergence of Adam Pitti has added to the chaos in the men's frog arena today, and the men's 100 frogs may be brought into a new era by these three - the 57-second era.

Five gold medals will be produced tonight, and the process of producing each gold medal will definitely make people pee out of place, and the scalpers at the Kazan Arena tonight have been fried to more than 15,000 rubles (about 1,500 soft sister coins), for today's ordinary Russian people, 15,000 rubles is not a small amount, which is equivalent to half a month's basic salary of the Russian working class.

Russians are like that, they will take the rubles they have on hand to buy vodka, or exchange them for tickets to opera houses, gymnasiums. Alcohol, art and sports are deeply embedded in the blood of the fighting nation, and as for whether there will be money to eat tomorrow, tomorrow's affairs will be discussed tomorrow.

In tonight's five finals, the Russians should be most concerned about the women's 100 breaststroke, after all, Efimova has the ability to win gold.

But looking at the international swimming world, the men's 100 breaststroke final has attracted the most attention.

FINA officially described the men's 100 breaststroke final as a "battle of the three kings": Lao Wang, Van der Berg. The king in power, Doucle. It is possible to fight the new king who ascended the throne, Adam Peaty.

The Western media has fanatical hopes for Adam Peaty: "Adam the Great will dominate the men's breaststroke, he is the best breaststroke in the world!" ”

The Chinese media can't say much, after all, Pitty is the latest men's 100 breaststroke world record holder and the fastest person in the event.

But most of the Chinese media are also reasonable, and Horton and the Australian media are unreasonable, so the Chinese media will dig at the ancestral grave of the Australian swimming world. Adam Peaty is cautious in his words and actions in the face of the media, he never denigrates or ridicules his opponents, on the contrary, Peaty also publicly states that he admires Duke.

So the Chinese media was polite and polite to Peaty: "Adam Peaty is very talented, and I look forward to an epic showdown between Duke and Peaty." ”

In anticipation, the night of Matchday 3 began.

Tonight's Kazan Arena Natatorium is full of 15,000 seats.

The first competition was the men's 100 breaststroke final, and under the introduction of the host, the eight finalists entered in order of passage.

3 Van der Berg, 4 Adam Peaty, 5 Douca, and the three of them were in the final to make them third, first and second in the 100 Frog semifinals.

Vanderbergh glanced in the direction of 4 or 5 to the left, Adam the Great, right? The myth that the Duke is undefeated, right? I'll catch you all tonight, and I, Cameron Vanderberg, vow to reclaim the glory that once belonged to me!

Adam Peaty poured a pool of water from the pool and poured it on his body, patting his chest and thrashing his arms to get himself into fighting mode.

Du Ke naturally crossed his hands on his waist, stepped on the jumping platform with one foot, and looked at the other end of the pool, his aura calm and confident.

At this time, the preparatory signal sounded, and the competitors got on the jumping platform.

Honk! It's game on!

Duke jumped the farthest and was very excited when he entered the water, and the water felt quite comfortable.

The feeling of water sounds mysterious, but it is not difficult to understand, just like the quilt we cover, the skin-friendly quilt is so comfortable, and you can sleep until you are full.

If you regard water as a part of your body, then you will become one with water-is-our-world.

Duke paddled his arms to hold the water and advanced at high frequency with the most traditional slalom breaststroke leg strokes.

Pitty in the next lane, who had an equally smooth feel for the water, immediately used an improved whip kick to swim in from the start.

Thirty meters later, Doucle was in first position, Peaty was in hot pursuit, and Van der Berg was third, but he was pulled away by Doucle and Peaty.

Duke and Peaty had a pinnacle duel between the two masters, and before turning around, they both pressed the world record line.

Duke pressed the world record line on his chest, and Pitty held the world record line on his head, and the future firepower of both of them was very fierce.

The world record line represents a time of 58.27 seconds, and it was Peaty's swim in the 100 semifinals last night.

The narrators from various countries have similar commentaries: "Duke and Pitty are swimming very fast, and Duke is slightly ahead!" The astonishing strength of these two in the first 50 meters has far surpassed the other competitors! ”

"He's really fast!" In the pool, Duke and Pitty in the adjacent swimming lane have this feeling, and the guy next door is quite difficult!

In fact, this is the first time that Duke and Pitty have competed in the same pool, although they know who each other is, they have never met before coming to Kazan, and they did not get into the same group in the preliminaries and semifinals of the men's 100 breaststroke event at the World Championships.

It's an epic encounter.

Passion burns, yes, in the pool, Duke hasn't surged this surging feeling for a long time.

The strength of his opponent made Duke boil, and he was eager to defeat Peaty, not only for the outcome of the victory, but also for the process of paddling and kicking the waves.

With a strong enemy like Peaty around to block it with all his might, the process of winning is even more enjoyable and exciting.

Du Ke touched the wall with both hands, turned around and kicked the wall, took the lead in completing the turning action, and entered the return 50 meters.

Pitty made the turn almost at the same time, and he played flawlessly.

The diving after the breaststroke turn is not allowed to be turned on the back, nor can it be sideways to hit the butterfly leg, and the breaststroke diving is only allowed to hit the breaststroke leg, so the side butterfly turning technique exclusively invented by Duke cannot be used in the breaststroke, and his bull turn is only suitable for freestyle above 50 meters.

However, with the extra kicking power provided by [Dolphin Turn], Duke extended some of his lead after diving and ascended, and he immediately used [Big Water Wheel] and swam at full speed!

The next 35 meters are perhaps the most exciting 35 meters in the history of the men's breaststroke.

Duke and Pitty sprinted wildly at an unbelievable swimming speed, and the world record line was constantly pressed down by them, chest pressure, waist pressure, and thigh pressure!

When Pitty pressed the world record line with his thigh, Duke had already stepped on the world record line!

The world record line of 58.27 seconds was the world's fastest men's 100m breaststroke result yesterday, and in less than 24 hours, this green line was exploded again and again by Duke and Peaty.

Perhaps there is a comparison to see the terrifying speed of these two men, the world record line is like a mustard for Duke and Pitty, but for the other six players, it is an insurmountable chasm.

With the last 5 meters left, Duke stepped on the world record line, and Pitti's leg pressed the world record line, and this world record line was half a body ahead of the third-place Van der Bergh, and the former frog king Van der Bergh could not catch up with the world record line of 58.27 seconds despite his old life.

"Duke is still ahead, victory is in sight!" Zhou Feifei stood up excitedly and explained, "It seems that Duke is going to create a new world record, and he has touched the wall with his foot on the world record line!" Champion! Record! Congratulations Ducques! ”

Duke was the first to touch the wall half a way ahead of Peaty and won the men's 100 breaststroke, with Peaty finishing second. The advantages of these two people were too obvious, and after turning around, the other six people could no longer happily play with them.

At this time, the results on the big screen were brushed out, and the scene almost exploded, and the results showed:

lane-5,du,00:00:57.20;

lane-***eaty,00:00:57.61;

lane-3,van-der-burgh,00:00:58.62;

……

Duke and Peaty swam directly into the 58-second space, and Douce broke the world record set by Peaty yesterday with a time of 57.20 seconds and shortened the original world record by more than 1 second.

Everyone in the audience exclaimed: This is the era of big swimming, this is the era of big breaststroke! Duke and Pitty are both perverts, swimming in under 58 seconds at the same time in an epic showdown, and they teamed up to deliver a spectacular competition that will go down in swimming history.
