Chapter 443: Twin Stars Shine 100 Self

The men's 4*200m freestyle relay preliminaries group 1 competition began. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Xu Qiheng, the first batter of the Chinese team in the third lane, went all out, but the first batter of Australia, Britain, Japan and Italy in the same group was not bad, and Canada, South Africa and Brazil also tried to grab a place in the final.

When Xu Qiheng swam the first 200-meter handover, he ranked eighth.

Du Ke watched the game on the shore, a little anxious, can you not be in a hurry, Xu Qiheng is eight or nine meters behind the British team's first baton James Gay, James Gay swims 200 from the level of about 1 minute 45 seconds, Xu Qiheng's first baton result, Du Ke is estimated to be more than 1 minute 49 seconds.

Fortunately, Shang Keyuan, the second baseman of the Chinese team, played well, and playing well means that he is better than his usual training midstream.

Shang Keyuan exploded two people in a row in the second bat, overtaking South Africa and Canada, and chasing sixth place. After all, Shang Keyuan participated in the final of the relay event of the Incheon Asian Games, and the experience and confidence of the Asian Games relay champion allowed him to withstand the pressure.

Then the good times didn't last long, the third stick Zhang Jie was younger than Xu Qiheng, and the international competition experience was 0, and Zhang Jie was blown back to the eighth position in the third stick.

At this time, the top four teams are Britain, Australia, Japan and Italy, and judging from the top three results, these four teams have the strength to advance to the finals. Among them, the British, Australian and Japanese teams have several 200 masters, and they have the strength to stand on the podium.

Brazil, South Africa, and Canada seem to have little hope, and they have only one strong stick like the Chinese team in the preliminaries.

Before Duke took off, the Chinese team was 7.82 seconds behind the fourth-place Italian team, and the Chinese team wanted to advance to the final, at least faster than the Italian team, because the second group included the United States, France, Russia, Germany and other strong teams.

It would be a shame if the defending champion China could not reach the final.

Duke takes the baton, jumps off, and then stunts in full swing to chase the rider in front of him.

Du Ke, the world record holder in the 200 individual event, also fought hard, he overtook four people in a row before touching the wall, and the Chinese team finished fourth in the group with a time of 7:12.85.

After a while, the competition in Group 2 ended, and the fourth place team in Group 2 Germany was slower than China and faster than Italy, Italy was eliminated, and China advanced to the final with the seventh place in the preliminaries

"It's hard to take the men's 200m in this class." The coaches of the Chinese team know what to expect. Du Ke is invincible in his own stick, but the other three sticks are poor, if Sun Yang's physical condition is adjusted to the best, and can play within 1 minute and 45 seconds, then the Chinese team still has hope of defending the title, otherwise it will be difficult.

At 18:30 p.m., the night game begins.

Tonight, Du Ke played quite smoothly, in the words of the media: Is Du Ke too lonely and bored?

Duke competed in two finals tonight, 200 butterflies and 50 backs.

Compared with yesterday's exciting 100 frogs and 200 self, the process of tonight's two finals is not shocking.

Duke took the lead at the start and led until the finish, and the opponent couldn't overtake him, but Duke didn't rush desperately. He won the men's 200 butterfly with a time of 1:52.98 and the men's 50 back with a time of 24.10 seconds.

Yesterday Duke had a peak duel with Adam Peaty in the 100 breaststroke final, and in the 200 self final, he went crazy beyond himself and broke through the limits.

And today, Duke took away the two championships in a bland way, and the swimmers shouted: It's not fun!

After the race, a Chinese reporter interviewed Du Ke: "Today's 50 backs and 200 butterflies, your swimming championship results are a certain gap from your PB that is the world record score, and your 200 butterfly final results are not even faster than your semi-final results......

Duke: "I swam four shots tonight, and in addition to the 50 back and 200 butterfly finals, I also participated in the semi-finals of the 100 free and 200 mixed and I had to divide my fitness evenly. And there are peaks and troughs in the athletes' competitive state, and I can't keep the peak state in every shot. "Keep a low profile and make yourself look like a normal person once in a while.

The reporter asked again: "Halfway through the competition, you have won 7 gold medals, bringing your total number of gold medals in the World Championships to 21." With eight individual events and four relay events left in the next four race days, what are you looking forward to? ”

Duke: "Do your best, thank you." ”

After being interviewed by Chinese reporters, Du Ke was surrounded by foreign media reporters, and the questions that reporters were most concerned about were: Du Ke, how many more records can you swipe?

You can't answer this kind of question positively, otherwise you're digging a hole for yourself.

Doucle's answer is still the same: do your best.

There are 8 individual events left: 50 Frog, 50 Butterfly, 100 Butterfly, 200 Frog, 200 Back, 200 Mixed and 400 Mixed.

Du Ke's strategic thinking is that the champions of these eight individual events must be guaranteed to be in hand, whether to brush the record, one is to look at the state, and the other is to properly control the rhythm.

Now it's all about an extremely perverted record, and if you want to refresh it again in Rio, you have to pay a bigger cost.

Rio, that's where the coolest top-level dressing stage comes in.

The world record of 50 frogs can be a big deal, because 50 frogs are not an Olympic sport and will not appear in Rio.

The other seven individual items, consider it as appropriate. In fact, Du Ke is not absolutely sure that the world records of the four individual events of 50, 100, 200 and 400 are quite difficult to refresh, after all, the four individual world records he holds are quite difficult to brush.

As for the relay race, it is not something that Duke can brush casually if he wants to, it depends on the strength of the team and the overall state.

After being interviewed by reporters, Duke returned to the team to watch the rest of the game.

At the Kazan Arena tonight, the Chinese swimming team achieved a comprehensive victory, and Du Ke won the 50 back and 200 butterfly championships. Sun Yang came out with illness to win back an 800 self gold medal, and the Australian player Horton, who had been disrespectful to Sun Yang, won the 800 self bronze medal, and it seems that Horton still has some strength in the middle and long distance freestyle events.

Fu Yuanhui and Liu Xiang won the gold medal and bronze medal in the women's 50 back, and Fu Yuanhui won the first gold medal in Kazan for the Chinese women's swimming team, and her status in the team instantly improved to a level.

……

August 6, Matchday 5.

Sun Yang did not appear in the swimming pool, his myocarditis attacked, he was tortured and called his mother, and he rested in the athletes' apartment all day.

The coaching staff of the Chinese team made a decisive decision immediately: to give up the men's 4*200m freestyle relay.

Giving up does not mean withdrawing from the game, but not arranging for Duke to play.

Duke dragged three and went crazy to death, and he probably couldn't get a medal back. It is better to let Duke rest and save enough energy to ensure the individual event.

As a result, the Chinese men's relay team, which played with all second-tier players, won the 8th place in the final of the men's 4*200m freestyle relay.

The Chinese team, the champion of the men's 4 x 100 self and 4 x 200 self in the Barcelona World Championships, failed to defend their titles in these two relay events in Kazan, winning a silver medal in the 4 x 100 self pick-up, and the 4 x 200 self-pick was even worse, eighth place, and the penultimate first in the final.

Western media began to beep the Chinese team: "The Chinese men's swimming team is actually a one-man team, look at their collective relay event, without Duke, they are at most a second-rate team." ”

In the rest area of the Chinese team, Du Ke said to Ning Zetao: "Foreign media are like this, if you have the opportunity, you can attack us a few words, Baozi, let them see, there is more than just one Du Ke in the Chinese men's swimming team." ”

Ning Zetao nodded: "Okay." ”

The duo walked side by side towards the preparation area, where they will compete in the men's 100m freestyle final.

At the Incheon Asian Games, Du Ke did not register for the men's 100 free, and he believes that Ning Zetao has no opponent in Asia.

At the World Championships in Kazan, Duke reported 100 free, and there are still many masters outside Asia.

The top four finishers in the men's 100 self semi-finals are Duke, McEvoy, Adrian and Ning Zetao, and if nothing else, the medals will be awarded from these four.

Adrian is the top swimmer of the U.S. team in the sprint freestyle event, McEvoy is the hot star of the Australian team, and Ning Zetao has set a small goal for himself: it doesn't matter if he can't swim Duke, but he must beat Adrian and McVoy.

The Chinese media have high hopes for the Dunin combination, calling them Bolt + Blake in the pool.

To say that Duke is Bolt in the pool is recognized by all walks of life. said that Ning Zetao was Blake, and many foreign media were extremely suspicious.

Whether the Chinese swimming team's Du Ke + Ning Zetao in the sprint freestyle event is comparable to the terrifying combination of Usain Bolt + Blake of the Jamaican sprint team, you will know it by comparison.

At this time, the start signal sounded, and the men's 100m freestyle final began!

After the departure, Du Ke in the 4th lane rushed to the front.

3 and 5 Adrian and McEvoy flanked Doke left and right, and the firepower was not weak!

The 50 self and 100 self are the two whole anaerobic events, which are the fastest swimming speeds among all swimming events, which is the flying fish battle in the pool.

It is very difficult to defend the title of 50 self and 100 self, and the probability of an upset is high.

Adrian and McEvoy knew this, so they tried to cause an upset, trying to kill Douc and bring down Duke's undefeated myth in Kazan.

Duke won't give his opponent that chance, and he slashed high in the mid-field to maintain a half-position lead, which is a safe distance in the men's 100 free.

Adrian and McEvoy pressed Doucle to the point where he was about to turn around, but found that he couldn't overtake Doke, which was troublesome, and it would be quite troublesome if he couldn't get Doke in the first 50 meters.

Who knew that Du Ke's turn was very awesome, he couldn't suppress Du Ke before he turned around, and he didn't have to play anymore after he turned around.

Du Ke performed a smooth and coherent set of turns, turning forward, diving against the wall, and hitting the butterfly leg sideways, like a large dolphin swinging his body flexibly and swimming quickly.

After 15 metres of diving, Doucle was one position ahead of second-place McEvoy...... Oh, one position ahead of Ning Zetao.

Ning Zetao suddenly exerted his strength, and after turning around, he overtook Adrian and McEvoy and grabbed the second position.

Two Chinese athletes, or two Asian athletes, rushed to the front, for the first time in the history of the men's 100m freestyle at the World Championships!

"Du Ke, Ning Zetao, will they make history? It was a historic moment for two Asians to win the top two in the men's 100 at the World Championships! "Not only the Chinese commentators are very excited, but some commentators from other Asian countries are also looking forward to it.

In the last 20 meters, Du Ke and Ning Zetao are still in the top two.

15 meters! McEvoy held his breath and lunged, he almost caught up with Ning Zetao.

10 meters! Ning Zetao also began to hold his breath, he wanted to grab the side.

Duke touched the wall with a one-position lead to win the men's 100 free in 46.87 seconds, just 0.02 seconds shy of his own world record.

Ning Zetao finished the action before McEvoy, and in 47.84 seconds, he won the second place.

McEvoy lost a half-time to the side, and in 47.93 seconds, he finished third.

Ning Zetao's right eye was a little short-sighted, and when he got to the side, he squinted at the big screen in the distance, but he couldn't see the results on the big screen clearly

Du Ke's binocular vision is good, and he shouted to Ning Zetao in the sixth lane through McEvoy's 5th lane: "Baozi, 47.84 seconds, you are second!" ”

Ning Zetao shouted at Du Ke through McEvoy: "I'm second? So who comes first? ”

Duke smashed his fist on the buoy line between the 4th and 5th lanes, causing a splash, and he made a feigned anger: "Nonsense! Do you still need to ask? ”

After finishing the matter, Du Ke and Ning Zetao looked at each other and smiled, raising their arms to celebrate the victory.

Caught between Duke and Ning Zetao, the Australian star McEvoy almost collapsed, he looked at Duke on the left, and then at Ning Zetao on the right, and muttered: "You two Chinese, when I am air......" (to be continued.) )
