May 28th.

At the IAAF Grand Prix in Eugene, Gatlin tied the world record with a time of 9.77 seconds without exceeding the wind speed.

As a result, the world record is now held by him and Asafa Powell.

Oslo.

Athletics field.

Yang Hao frowned slightly when he learned the news.

Unexpectedly, Gatlin, who was suppressed by him and Asafa Powell last year, broke out this year.

Now, the world's 100 meters is no longer a two-legged competition, but a three-legged stand.

But.

Yang Hao is not afraid, what if Gatling breaks out?

He's not the same person he was last year.

It's more fun to break the record of two people at once!

Next to him, Wang Shengnan said, "I don't know if Gatling will participate in the Golden League later."

"I don't know, but it doesn't matter, I won him three times last year, and I won't lose this year! And the world record, it won't be mine."

After speaking, Yang Hao got up and walked onto the track: "I'll run again!"

Watching him leave, Wang Shengnan was a little worried and said, "Coach Li, I think Xiao Hao has a problem with his current state."

Li Heng disagreed: "Is there one? I think he's in great shape, confident and motivated."

Wang Shengnan didn't say more, but she felt that Yang Hao was now full of world records, which was not a good thing.

Domestic.

The news that Gatlin equaled the world record was also transmitted back to China by the media.

[Gatling equals the world record]

[Gatling opened the 9.80 second mark before Yang Hao and shared the world record with Asafa Powell]

[Gatling: 9.77 seconds is not the limit, I will create a better result]

【......】

"Gatlin is running in 9.80 seconds!"

"It's a mess, and the entire northwest of Jin is going to be a mess!"

"Good guy, last year was a two-man competition, and this year it will become a three-legged stand?"

"I thought Gatlin was going to fail, but I didn't expect him to explode."

"I look forward to Yang Hao also opening the 9.80 second mark!"

"I'm looking forward to the world record even more, doesn't it mean that Yang Hao has already run 9.77 seconds in training? The game should have been better."

"It's not going to be a few days, and then I'll stay up late to watch the live broadcast."

As the time for the Oslo race approached, so did the Oslo race.

Tickets were sold out early, and world-renowned sports media came in to report on it.

June 2nd.

Oslo.

After coming here for a week, Yang Hao's biological clock has been adjusted very well, and his condition is also very good.

The opening match of the Golden League will be played this evening.

Among them, the 100-meter final was placed in the finale position.

Without a doubt, this is the most opener project.

In addition to Yang Hao and Asafa Powell, the rest of the players are also very strong.

The African record holder (9.85 seconds) is Nigeria's Fasuba, last year's World Championships 100m runner-up Jamaica's Frath, Athens Olympic 200m champion Crawford, and world regulars Thomas Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago's Burns, Ghana's Zachary and many more.

Among the 8 players, 7 have run under 10 seconds, and 5 have run under 9.90 seconds, which is not a strong lineup.

Especially Yang Hao and Asafa Powell, who will win after nearly two years of playing each other again?

….

No one knows!

Even the odds offered by the spinach company to the two are almost the same.

It is also for this reason that

Morning.

Suburban athletics.

Yang Hao simply moved his body to prepare for the evening game.

What makes him a little depressed is that the weather is bad today, and it's outdoors right now

The temperature is only 16 degrees, and it will definitely be lower at night.

And the weather forecast says there may be light rain, so it's even colder.

This kind of weather is not suitable for sprint races, because the low temperature will cause the subcutaneous blood vessels to constrict, and the joints and muscles will become stiff and sticky, making it easy to develop sports injuries.

A temperature of around 22°C is the most suitable, and in this atmosphere, the muscles will be more relaxed, and the nerves will be more excited, which is conducive to playing.

Imperial capital.

Tian Mi went to the supermarket to buy some snacks and prepared to stay up late to watch the game.

Speaking of which, she hasn't stayed up late to watch Yang Hao's game for a long time, and the last time was last year's World University Games.

Sun Xiuzhi also rushed over from her hometown, because Yang Hao would not come back for a while when she went out to compete, so she came over to help her daughter take care of the family.

Living room.

Sun Xiuzhi saw the large bags of snacks on the coffee table: "Eat less snacks, it's unhealthy, and it's easy to gain weight."

"Got it!"

Tian Mi sat on the sofa in a little white dress.

Sun Xiuzhi sat down next to him: "Is this game important to Xiao Hao?"

"It's quite important, now Gatlin has also scored 9.80 seconds, holding the world record with Asafa Powell, and Yang Hao doesn't want to fall behind."

Tian Mi basically contacts Yang Hao by phone or text message every day, and knows his mind very well.

......

Early hours of imperial capital time.

After an advertisement, Yang Jian's voice sounded in the live broadcast room of Yangdao.

"CCTV, CCTV, here is the IAAF Golden League opener, the race in Oslo, which is being broadcast live for you! In the javelin throw competition, Norway's Sorgildsson threw 91.59m to win the championship, and then the final race of the day is the men's 100m fly."

"I know a lot of spectators are looking forward to this race, and I'm also looking forward to it, today is also the first race of the 2006 season for Yang Hao, and it is the first time in nearly two years, he and Asafa Powell have played again, the last time they met was the 100m final of the Athens Olympics, when Asafa Powell was 5th, Yang Hao was 6th, and now, they have become the world's top 100m athletes."

"It is worth mentioning that the current record for the 100m race in Oslo is 9.88 seconds set by Yang Hao last year, and I don't know if this record will be broken today."

Meanwhile.

Bicester Stadium was packed with more than 10,000 seats.

Although it is small compared to the 60,000 and 80,000 stadiums, the atmosphere is not bad at all.

Especially after the local javelin star won the championship just now, the atmosphere became more enthusiastic.

Everyone wants to see who can win this trapeze battle.

You must know that it was here last year that Yang Hao created a record of 9.88 seconds with his super performance.

Many viewers still remember it vividly.

The other side.

Sideline.

Eight competitors are in the final warm-up.

Now the outdoor temperature is less than 15 degrees, which is relatively cold, so everyone can only keep moving to keep the body warm and let the muscles be in a more relaxed state.

….

Yang Hao is the same.

From the check-in to the warm-up, he and Asafa Powell only said hello and did not talk much.

After all, it's an opponent.

And the others, Thomas, Burns, Zachary and so on, although they knew it would be difficult to beat both of them, no one wanted to do the crane tail.

So now the air smells of gunpowder.

Soon.

The staff informed everyone that they were ready to appear.

So, Yang Hao put on his coat.

At this temperature, if you go out without a coat, your body temperature will drop rapidly and your muscles will become stiff.

While queuing, Yang Hao took a deep breath.

Although it was not the most suitable temperature for the 100-meter race, he still wanted to be there

In this game, he won against Asafa Powell and won the world record at the same time.

Now.

In the stands.

Wang Shengnan and Li Heng are both coaches in the closest position to the runway.

Both were wearing coats.

Wang Shengnan held on to the railing with both hands: "Fortunately, it didn't rain."

"Although it didn't rain, the temperature was still not conducive to playing, let's see what kind of results Xiao Hao can run."

Li Heng looked expectant.

Although Yang Hao had already run a time of 9.77 seconds when he was training in Nanyun Province, training was just training after all, and no matter how good he ran, he would not be recognized by the outside world.

Yang Hao, China's first 100-meter world champion, made history.

If the world record can be broken, it will be a historic achievement that will be written into the history of world athletics.

In the world 100-meter sprint, if you want to be the king, you must be the world champion, the Olympic champion and the world record.

Now Yang Hao has only won the 100-meter championship at the World Championships, and he has to continue to work hard.

That's when it happened.

The 8 contestants entered the scene in turn under the guidance of the guide.

Cheers rang out from the stands.

The atmosphere became hot, and even the temperature in the stadium seemed to get a little hotter.

CCTV live broadcast room.

Yang Jian, who was originally calm, also became excited.

"Spectators, the exciting time is just around the corner, the men's 100m race has entered the field and the race is about to begin."

In the camera, the athletes go to their own path.

All wore coats.

"The players are wearing jackets because the temperature on the scene is relatively low, less than 15 degrees, which is relatively cold for the players, which is not conducive to performance."

At this time, the shout of "Yang Hao" sounded at the scene.

Many tourists and international students from China came to cheer him on.

The sound is loud.

Yang Hao also heard it, raised his eyes and looked over, and it was a red Huaxia color.

This made his heart roll a little hot.

The last competition was the relay final of the 10th Games, and it has been too long.

The warm atmosphere really intoxicated him.

"World record, I'll take it!"

Thinking of this, Yang Hao turned around to adjust the running aid, then took off his coat and ran for a test run.

Except that the temperature was a bit low, there were no other problems.

After the test run, he continued to move his body before returning to the starting line and maintained his body temperature.

And the host of the scene also began to introduce the contestants.

CCTV live broadcast room.

Yang Jian also followed the camera introduction.

"In lane 8 is Crawford, the 200m champion of the Athens Olympics, but his 100m prowess is also not to be underestimated, and he is a regular in the world 100m...... Burns, who is from Trinidad and Tobago, is also a regular in the World Championships and has played against Yang Hao several times...... Lane 6 is Nigeria's Fasuba, who has a best time of 9.85 seconds, which is also the African record in the 1......00m."

….

Every time the camera is given to the contestants, regardless of whether they are famous or not, there will be applause at the scene.

In particular, Asafa Powell and Yang Hao had the loudest applause and cheers.

After all, they are the focus of this game.

After the introduction, the specific information of the contestants was given on the large screen and TV screen.

Lane 1: Zachary, Ghana

Lane 2: Thomas, Jamaica

Lane 3: Flat, Jamaica

Lane 4: Yang Hao, Huaxia

Lane 5: Asafa Powell, Jamaica

Lane 6: Fasuba, Nigeria

Lane 7: Burns, Trinidad and Tobago

Lane 8: Crawford, beautiful country

A moment later.

"on-your-rks!" was heard on the radio. sounds.

That means the game is about to begin.

The scene began to become quiet.

But Yang Hao couldn't be quiet.

He suddenly became nervous.

This feeling is a little stronger than when I first stepped on the Golden League.

Record!

Yang Hao's mind is full of world records.

Asafa Powell is right next to him, and if he beats him in under 9.77 seconds, he will kill two birds with one stone.

Yang Hao jumped on the spot and exhaled a long breath: "Whew......"

Then he squatted down.

Next to him, Asafa Powell crouched down with a calm face and put his feet on the pedals of the runner.

He has been competing since March, has regained his sense of the ring, is in good shape and confident of winning against Yang Hao.

After all eight players are ready, the two referees quickly check one after the other, and after confirming that there are no problems, they will give feedback to the referee.

Then, the radio sounded a prepared password.

「set！」

Before the sound fell, 8 runners made a starting position at the same time.

At this moment, the scene of more than 10,000 spectators was quiet as if there were only a few hundred people.

Everyone waited with bated breath for the starting gun to sound.

Wang Shengnan and Li Heng both stared at Yang Hao, a little nervous.

Before the starting line.

Yang Hao's strength was surging, and there was only one thought in his mind, to win Asafa Powell and win the world record.

"Smack!"

The sound of the starting gun reached the ears of the eight athletes at about the same time through the horn placed behind the runner.

Asafa Powell was the first to react, pushing his hands off the ground while slamming his feet on the runner, then straight knees and leg lifts to rush forward with powerful bursts.

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books, change the source, .huanyuan install the latest version.] 】

And Yang Hao's reaction was obviously half a beat slower, and he rushed forward immediately.

Sidelines.

Li Heng and Wang Shengnan's brows furrowed.

Because they are most familiar with Yang Hao, this start doesn't seem to be particularly smooth.

CCTV live broadcast room.

Yang Jian's voice was raised: "The game is on! Yang Hao didn't start very well, and Asafa Powell was in the lead for the time being."

At this point, the starting reaction time is already shown.

Asafa Powell is 0.131 seconds, while Yang Hao is only 0.169 seconds, which is the first from the bottom among the eight players.

on the runway.

Yang Hao knew that he was not attentive enough when he listened to the gun, and his reaction to the start was slow, and now he was a little anxious.

After all, his strength has not yet reached the point of breaking records casually, and it will be difficult to break records when the starting reaction is not very good.

….

What's more, now Asafa Powell is still ahead of him.

From Yang Hao's footsteps, it can be heard that his rhythm is not smooth enough.

"Asafa Powell still maintains the lead, and Yang Hao is in second place!"

"Yang Hao speed up!"

In the 100-meter race, more than half of the race is passed in the blink of an eye.

After 50 meters.

Entering the top speed stage, Yang Hao regained his rhythm.

Although still behind Asafa Powell.

But he didn't give up and continued to keep the pace of catching up.

At this moment, Asafa Powell, who is in the lead, is swinging his arms and running wildly.

He has a characteristic, if he is at a disadvantage in front, he will be unconsciously discouraged and have a feeling of self-abandonment.

But if he is in an advantage, it is different, there is no one in front of him, he will be very energetic and rushing.

This is the case now.

Halfway through the race, he was still in the lead, and he was very happy

Fen.

Powerful.

"Yang Hao is still catching up!"

"Yang Hao!"

Yang Jian saw that Yang Hao was lagging behind, and he was a little anxious.

Not only him, but also the Chinese audience at the scene and in front of the TV, eager to step forward and push him.

Tian Mi hugged the pillow, very anxious.

And Li Heng and Wang Shengnan on the sidelines knew that this game could not be won.

After all, Asafa Powell is the world record holder, his strength is there, Yang Hao fell too far behind in the first half of the race, and it was difficult to catch up.

on the runway.

80 meters.

Yang Hao and Asafa Powell's perception is getting smaller and smaller, and at this moment he has calmed down, keeping his speed as much as possible, and not letting his speed slip too fast.

The results of more than two months of training in Nagumo Province have also come out, and his stamina is stronger than before.

"Yang Hao!"

"The end is just around the corner!"

"Rush the line!"

"Yang Hao and Asafa Powell crossed the line almost at the same time! Asafa was earlier."

Yang Jian's tone was full of regret.

After all, I had great expectations for Yang Hao before the game, but I didn't expect the results to be unsatisfactory.

"9.89 seconds! Asafa Powell won the championship with a time of 9.89 seconds! Failed to break the record set by Yang Hao."

"Yang Hao is 9.90 seconds, ranking second with a difference of one hundredth of a second."

"The wind speed was 0.9 meters per second against the headwind, and the temperature was low, so they didn't run particularly well."

"A game is a game, no one can win and not lose, it's normal to lose by a small margin. Moreover, this is Yang Hao's first game of the year, and he has not fully adapted to the state of the game, and when he finds his form, he will definitely have a better performance in the next game, so let's cheer for him."

Yang Jian tried his best to make up for Yang Hao, and there were indeed these reasons in it.

Bicester Stadium.

on the runway.

Asafa Powell was agitated and struck a triumphant pose in front of the rushing photographers.

And Yang Hao glanced at the big screen, and the result of 9.90 seconds was a bit dazzling.

Lost!

Not only did he not get the world record he coveted, but he also lost to Asafa Powell.

This also means that it is not possible to create a six-game winning streak in the Golden League this year.

"Kakaka."

There were also photographers who shot at him.

It seemed to want to shoot his frustrated expression.

Yang Hao had a smile on his face, and then walked to Asafa Powell: "Congratulations! See you next in Paris!"

….

Asafa Powell has confirmed his participation in the Paris tournament, while Gatlin has not yet been announced.

Then, Yang Hao turned around and left, preparing to go back to the lounge to pack his things.

When passing by the media area, a reporter from Huaxia wanted to interview, but Yang Hao hesitated for a moment, but still accepted.

Reporter: Yang Hao, your starting reaction this time was much lower than normal, what happened?

"Lack of concentration, distraction."

Reporter: What do you want to say about this game?

"I'm sorry, I disappointed the audience who supported me, a loss is a loss, there's nothing to say, I'll work hard to prepare for the next game and win it back!"

......

Back in the car to the hotel.

Yang Hao spoke proudly before the game, but now he is silent.

Wang Shengnan comforted: "You haven't competed for too long, it's normal to be in bad shape, don't worry too much, there are still many competitions, and there is always a chance to break the world record."

Li Heng echoed: "Yes, Xiao Hao, don't think so much, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers."

Hearing this, Yang Hao squeezed out a smile: "You don't have to comfort me, losing is losing, it's my own problem."

He's too obsessed with world records.

So much so that I couldn't calm down at the start, and I was a little distracted when I listened to the gun.

In the first half of the race, because of falling behind, the rhythm was chaotic.

Even if he regained his rhythm in the second half, he was unable to return to the sky.

In short, this game didn't focus on the game as before, I thought too much about things outside the field, and I deserved to lose!

At this time, Wang Shengnan said: "Xiao Hao, you have been thinking about the world record too much this time, you don't have the calm and concentration you used to have in the game, as long as you adjust back, you will definitely be able to win him in the next game."

"It's not a bad thing to lose a game, just look for the problem and correct it."

Li Heng patted him on the shoulder: "Don't think about it so much, let's go back to China tomorrow, rest for a few days, and adjust."

According to the plan, Yang Hao will only participate in the Golden League, and the next stop will be in Paris on July 7, and there is still a month in between, and he will definitely not be able to stay abroad all the time.

"Hmm."

Yang Hao responded.

At this time, the text message of the mobile phone rang.

It was sent by Tian Mi: [Husband! Don't think so much, go home early, I'll make you something to eat! 】

Seeing the content of the text message, Yang Hao showed a gentle smile on his face.

The haze of failure is also gradually dissipating.

If you lose this time, you won't repeat it next time.
