Chapter 303: Who else is there in this arena?!
As soon as Liu Xiaohu finished the warm-up activities, he took a sip of water and rested for a while, and the final of the men's high jump college group officially began.
According to the rules of the game, the players who enter the men's high jump finals need to draw lots again before the game to determine the order of the test jumps, and Liu Xiaohu drew the No. 3 lot.
I don't know if it's too lucky, Chen Hao, the most powerful opponent of the Normal College of Science and Technology, happened to draw No. 4 and followed him closely.
This made Liu Xiaohu's pressure a little bigger.
He took a deep breath and focused on the final, which had already begun, and stopped thinking about it.
In fact, he also understands that at this moment, no matter how much he thinks, it is useless, and only by doing his best and fighting hard will he have the possibility of standing out.
Then, let's see the highs and lows on the field!
The starting height of the men's high jump college group finals of the Provincial Games is 1.92 meters, and the lifting height of the crossbar is 2 cm after each round.
Due to the high and low level of the finalists, Liu Xiaohu and Chen Hao, as well as another player from Jiangzhou Agricultural University, did not choose to try jumping in the first few rounds after the finals began.
It wasn't until the height of the crossbar was raised to 2.08 meters that Liu Xiaohu started his first test jump in this final.
At this moment, the 12 players who entered the finals, 4 have been eliminated, only 8 players remain, the No. 1 player in front of Liu Xiaohu was eliminated from the three failed jumps at a height of 2.06 meters, and the No. 2 player also touched the crossbar in the first attempt jump when he jumped 2.08 meters.
Seeing the depressed look of the No. 2 runner, Liu Xiaohu took a deep breath and slowly walked to the starting point of the running line.
"Take it easy, don't rush! Master the rhythm of the run-up, you can! ”
Lin Yahui stood aside and clenched his fists to cheer Liu Xiaohu on.
He is still very confident in Liu Xiaohu's strength, and the only thing to consider now is that this Provincial Games is the first time Liu Xiaohu has participated in such a large-scale competition, and he is still a little worried that Liu Xiaohu will play abnormally because of nervousness.
It is very important for a professional athlete to have a strong psychological quality, especially when the opponent is at the same level, to be able to ensure stable performance or even extraordinary performance, which is an important guarantee for victory.
As the referee in front of him put the crossbar back on the high jump and measured the height again, Liu Xiaohu raised his hand to the referee, took a deep breath, and started to run.
Liu Xiaohu circled the arc, ran to the crossbar like a gust of wind, jumped with one foot slightly bent and slammed, the whole person was like a carp jumping over the dragon gate, jumping high, crossing a graceful curve and easily crossing the crossbar, and smashing down on the sponge pad behind the crossbar.
"Little Tiger, well done!"
Lin Yahui looked excited and cheered loudly.
Although the height of 2.08 meters is not his best result for Liu Xiaohu, as long as he does not start the jump, Lin Yahui's heart is always lifted.
Now seeing that Liu Xiaohu easily jumped over this height, and the height he crossed in this jump far exceeded 2.08 meters, Lin Yahui was really relieved until this moment:
If Liu Xiaohu can reach this level in the next test jump, then jumping 2.20 meters is a certainty, and even sprinting to a height of 2.22 meters and 2.24 meters is not impossible.
As long as Liu Xiaohu can steadily cross 2.22 meters, the gold medal in the men's high jump college group will basically be secured!
After getting off the sponge pad, Liu Xiaohu looked up at the immobile crossbar, and did not look too excited.
I chose a height of 2.08 meters to start the test jump, just to ensure that I can have a result, and at the same time to test my own game status.
Judging from the current performance, it is decent, and there is nothing too much to boast about.
If there are no accidents, his biggest rival No. 4 Sun Hao can easily cross the height of 2.08 meters on the first attempt, and other strong competitors can also do it.
If he wants to win this competition, he will have to see the next performance!
Sure enough, as Liu Xiaohu expected, he came to the sidelines and just took a sip of water, followed by No. 4 player Sun Hao, who also easily jumped 2.08 meters in his first attempt.
In the high jump, there are three rounds of attempts at the same height, and only if all three attempts fail, the competitor will be eliminated, so the next time is a long and boring wait.
By the end of the three rounds of trial jumps, 2 of the original 8 players were eliminated, leaving only 6 players such as Liu Xiaohu and Sun Hao to continue the challenge to the next height.
"Xiaohu, for the next 2.10 meters, my suggestion is to choose no jump."
Lin Yahui turned his head to look at the referee who was adjusting the height of the high jump bar, and turned around and suggested to Liu Xiaohu seriously,
"There are five more times when the bar is raised by 2 centimeters to a height of 2.20 meters, and I don't recommend that you choose to try the jump every time, after all, we can cross the height of 2.16 meters almost every time in the usual training process.
There will still be a long time to go, so we have to save our energy for the rest of the competition, and when the bar reaches 2.16 meters, it will be too late to choose a try jump.
If there are no accidents, I think the No. 2 rider will also choose to skip the jump at the next height. ”
"Well, I listen to the coach."
Liu Xiaohu nodded, to tell the truth, he couldn't get excited in the face of a height of 2.10 meters, it was too easy.
As a proud person, he likes to challenge the difficult!
Sure enough, it was not surprising that from 2.10 meters to 2.16 meters, not only Liu Xiaohu and No. 2 player Chen Hao chose not to jump very tacitly, but even the No. 10 player from Jiangzhou Agricultural University also did not appear.
As the competition progressed, there were fewer and fewer competitors eligible to continue to the next jump, and when the bar was raised to 2.18 meters, only the last four competitors remained.
"Xiaohu, come on! The height of 2.18 meters is not difficult for you, go for it once! ”
At this moment, Lin Yahui also had a serious expression, he took a deep breath, reached out and patted Liu Xiaohu's shoulder, and said expectantly,
"Skip this height, and then it's time to see the real thing!"
Players No. 1 and No. 2 had already been eliminated from the previous height, and when the referee raised the crossbar to a height of 2.18 meters, Liu Xiaohu was the first to appear.
Liu Xiaohu was moving his muscles and bones, while standing at the starting point of the run, looking intently at the high crossbar in front of him, and an indescribable pride surged in his heart:
Who else can I do in this arena?!
