August 21, National Stadium.
This is the penultimate Olympic Games day, and in today's track and field, six gold medals will be born.
The women’s 20km race walk in the morning is over, and in the evening, the first women’s javelin finals and women’s 200m finals also won two gold medals. The six gold medals have been taken halfway by the contestants, and the remaining three gold medals are undecided.
The three gold medals are men’s triple jump, men’s 400 meters and men’s 110 meters hurdles. Zhang Guan will participate in the finals of two of these events, which means that Zhang Guan may win two gold medals today.
At the same time, the men’s 4x100m preliminaries will also be held today, and Zhang Guan will also appear on the arena, but compared to other personal events, the audience obviously has little hope for 4x100m, Although Zhang Guan's personal ability is outstanding, the other three players of the Chinese team are at the level of the Olympic b target, while other such as the Americans, Jamaican team, British team and Trinidad and Tobago, there is no lack of world-class athletes Entering the finals is already the best expectation of the Chinese team. As for the medals, it is only a matter of thinking.
Before the relay race, Zhang Guan will have to participate in another race, which is the men’s 800m semi-final.
A total of 24 players entered the 800m semifinals. The top two in the group and the other two athletes with the best results will enter the finals. The rule of 24 in 8 looks cruel, but for truly capable players, getting promoted is not very difficult.
In terms of grouping in the semifinals, the organizers of the event also deliberately assigned several hot players to different championships, and the opponents in the same group of Zhang Guan are relatively moderate in strength. In the competition, Zhang Guan is still ahead. The 700-meter heel run, followed by a 100-meter sprint, then the group won first.
This running method has become the signature of Zhang Guan, especially after Zhang Guan won the 1500m gold medal, and after breaking the 1500m world record, coaches and training experts from various countries have begun to study this special running of Zhang Guan It’s only a few days since the race at 1500 meters. Some people have written corresponding papers on this running style of Zhang Guan, and they are ready to publish it soon.
At this time, everyone just saw the power of the Zhang Guan running method. Only the Zhang Guan won the championship with this kind of running method, but no one realized that this running method could not be copied at all. Almost all experts believe that since Zhang Guan can do it, then there must be a second person and a third person can also do the same thing, can also copy this unique running method of Zhang Guan.
......
After the 800-meter semifinal, after a short break, Zhang Guan ushered in the men’s 4-by-100-meter relay.
In this project, the goal of the national team is to reach the finals. This sounds like it is not difficult, because the national team has Zhang Guan, the sprint event should be able to kill the Quartet. But in fact, there are too many uncertainties in the relay race, and the opponents of the national team are also very strong.
In fact, in the previous Olympics, the Chinese team did not even qualify for the 4x100m relay. The qualifications for the Olympics in the relay race are different from those in the individual race. In the individual race, you can participate if you meet the competition standards for the Olympics. The relay race is ranked in the top of the world in the average of the two best results achieved in a certain period of time. Sixteen are eligible to participate in the Olympic Games.
Taking this Olympic Games as an example, you must achieve two best results in the IAAF-accredited competition from January 1, 2007 to July 16, 2008, and then calculate the draw value to rank . That is to say, one good result is not enough. You must have two good results to be able to enter the Olympic Games.
In this period of time, there are very few track and field competitions with relays. Many international competitions are only individual events, and there are no relay events. Only some world championships or intercontinental games will have relays. The project of the competition. The national team's strength in this project is relatively weak, and high-level competitions are not eligible to participate, so there are fewer opportunities to participate in relay competitions, and fewer opportunities to run two good results. Therefore, in previous Olympics, the national team was simply not qualified to participate in the Olympic relay.
But ranking in the top 16 does not mean that you can definitely participate in the Olympics, because you also have to consider the reason for the host. If the host also participates in this event, the quota will be one less. Of course, in each Olympic Games, some of the top 16 countries did not participate in the event.
This time the national team is the host, congenitally occupying a place, and for a team that is not qualified to participate in the Olympics on weekdays, advancing to the finals is already a relatively high goal.
In addition to the host Chinese team, the United States, Jamaica, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, Nigeria, South Africa, the Netherlands, Poland, Italy, Japan and Japan Thailand.
Analyzed from strength, the six teams from the United States, Jamaica, the United Kingdom, Trinidad and Tobago, Nigeria, and Canada will definitely be eligible for promotion. These six teams are basically made by the world’s top Sprinter poses. The strengths of Germany, South Africa, Italy, and Brazil cannot be underestimated. The Chinese team will compete with these four teams for two other places. the taste of.
In this game, the other three players sent by the national team are Wen Yongyi, Zhang Peiming and Hu Kai. This is already the strongest lineup that the national team can send.
The relay race was divided into two groups, and the top eight of the total score reached the final. Therefore, the position of the relay race is not important, the final score is the most important. Even if you run eighth in a group, as long as it is faster than the first in another group, you can still advance to the finals.
The most popular American team to win the championship is divided into the first group~IndoMTL.com~ This group also includes Trinidad and Tobago, Nigeria, South Africa, Poland, Brazil, the Netherlands and Japan. With the exception of Poland, the Netherlands and Japan, which are slightly weaker, the others are all strong teams. The United States is naturally the number one track and field power. Needless to say, Trinidad and Tobago are second only to Jamaica in Central and South America and better than many European teams. Nigeria is the number one strong team in Africa, South Africa and Brazil. They are all athletes who participate in the Olympics. Although they are not as good as the previous teams, they are also very powerful.
The US team was the runner-up of the last Olympics. In the Athens European Games, they lost to the United Kingdom by 0.01 seconds. At the same time, the US team is also the world record holder for this project. The US team led by Karl Lewis once set a world record of 4 by 100 meters in 37.40 seconds.
This time, the Americans are certainly determined to win the championship, and the biggest opponent they face is undoubtedly the Jamaican team led by Bolt and Powell. (To be continued.)
