Almighty Athlete Chapter 129: Who is the greatest athlete
Winning the fifth Olympic gold medal and breaking the fourth world record, Zhang Guan once again achieved unprecedented things, which undoubtedly became the focus of the news media discussions the next day.
Compared to it, its gold medal winners were so overshadowed in front of Zhang Guan. Many athletes thought they would get a gold medal and get a sports headline, but then they found that the headline was always Zhang Guan The news, and the news that they got a gold medal, can only be ranked second.
If you really want to compare, maybe only Phelps won the eight gold news, and can compete with Zhang Guan, and many people think that the hardware plus four world record results are better than eight gold medals. . Moreover, Zhang Guan won all gold medals in individual projects, while Phelps has several gold medals in relay swimming, but from the comparison of personal ability, Zhang Guan has already defeated Phelps.
Zhang Guan and Phelps, who are the greatest athletes in the history of the Olympics, have become the subject of debate. Many professional sports commentators in the world also expressed their views, and even some sports commentary programs, the guests debated for this endlessly.
"I think Zhang Guan is the greatest athlete in the history of the Olympic Games. He participated in different events and won five gold medals. He was able to win the Olympic gold medal in different events, especially in different major events. From At this point, I think Zhang Guan is stronger than Phelps. You know that Phelps participates in short swimming events, but Zhang Guan spans from 100 meters to 1500 meters, and even includes long jump events. "The guest said."
Opposite him, another guest flicked his lips in disdain. He obviously disagreed with this view and only heard him say: "But don’t forget, Phelps won eight gold medals and Zhang Guan only won With five gold medals, do you think that those who won eight gold medals are better than those who won five gold medals? The number determines everything! There is no doubt that Phelps is the greatest athlete in Olympic history!"
“I don’t agree with the idea that quantity determines everything! We can’t just consider quantity without looking at the quality of the gold medals. The five gold medals of Zhang Guan can all be won on personal projects, while the eight gold medals of Phelps In China, the 4x100m freestyle relay, the 4x100m medley relay and the 4 city 200m freestyle relay are all collective events. We are now discussing who is the greatest athlete in the history of the Olympics, not that The collective is the greatest collective in the history of the Olympics!" The guests on the opposite side immediately retorted.
"Okay, according to what you said, Phelps minus these three gold medals, and there are still five gold medals, which are all obtained from personal projects! From this point of view, Phil Pusi and Zhang Guan are on the same starting line, but Phelps also won three gold medals in collective projects. One is a gold medal with only five individual projects, and the other is five individual projects plus three collective projects. It is clear that'five plus three' is greater than'five'! From this point of view, Phelps is still the greatest athlete in Olympic history."
"Maybe "five plus three" is more powerful than "five", but don't forget, Zhang Guan's five gold medals contain four world records! This fully proves the gold content of gold medals and track and field. How hard is it to break the world record, you know, are the four world records not as valuable as the three collective project champions? The five gold medals of Zhang Guan are obviously more gold."
"The world record for swimming is also difficult to break. Phelps also broke the world record in the three events of 200-meter freestyle, 200-meter butterfly and 200-meter individual medley. His world record in personal events is only One less than Zhang Guan. In terms of entry, 4x100m freestyle relay, 4x100m medley relay, 4x200m freestyle relay, Phelps also won the world record That is to say, Phelps broke a total of six world records in this Olympic Games, and Zhang Guan has only four! Each gold medal of Phelps also has a very high gold content. Regardless of the number of gold medals, Phelps is better than Zhang Guan, so I said that Phelps is the greatest athlete in Olympic history."
The example given by this guest is indeed very convincing. Zhang Guan has five gold medals, and the results of the four world records seem so proud and seemingly incredible, but before that, Phelps has already achieved this, eight gold medals, six world records, Obviously better than Zhang Guan.
Of course, some people think that the world record broken by Zhang Guan is more difficult, but there is really no comparison between different sports, but what is certain is that no matter whether it is track and field or swimming, any world record is great.
The guests on the opposite side were obviously not persuaded by this series of numbers. He thought about it and retorted from the other direction: "Phelps’ game is over and his results have been fixed at eight gold medals. However, the Zhang Guan game did not end. He still has to participate in several events. He still has a chance to surpass Phelps. Perhaps by the end of the Olympic Games, the number of gold medals won by Zhang Guan will exceed Phelps. Sri Lanka! Be the one who won the most gold medals in the same Olympics."
"Then I have to tell you that this is impossible." The other person smiled slightly, and then said: "Let's take a closer look. The next few projects that Zhang Guan will participate in are 400 meters. Sprint, 800m middle distance, triple jump and basketball. Zhang Guan, as the world record holder of 400m sprint, is also the most popular champion in this event. We can count that he won a gold medal..."
"Maybe it will break the world record!" said the guest socket before.
"Okay, we counted him breaking the world record to win the championship. And at the 800-meter middle distance, we also counted him breaking the world record to win the championship. As for the triple jump, well, we still count him to break the world record to win the championship In this case, Zhang Guan will win eight gold medals, breaking seven world records, but that's about it. The 4x100m relay race is a collective event. The Chinese team can't find a second world class except Zhang Guan Sprinter, so Zhang Guan can not get this gold medal. basketball is also a collective project. The whole world knows the strength of the American Dream Team. Naturally, it is impossible for the Chinese team to win a gold medal in this project."
The guest’s speech was paused~IndoMTL.com~ Then said: "I am already in the direction of the best for Zhang Guan. Eight gold medals are already the limit for Zhang Guan, and the Philippines Phelps has won eight gold medals, which means that the best result of Zhang Guan can only be tied with Phelps. Phelps is still the first to win eight in the Olympic Games. A gold medalist, he is still the best in Olympic history!"
......
The last four days of the Olympic Games are left, Zhang Guan can participate in fewer and fewer events, Zhang Guan has five events left, and two of them are collective events. This seems to be a simple arithmetic problem. It seems that winning three more gold medals is indeed the limit of Zhang Guan.
At this time, the European and American countries were pleasantly surprised to find that even if they won three more gold medals, Zhang Guan was only tied with Phelps, but the first person to achieve a certain achievement is obviously greater than the latter. People may remember Gagarin's first flight into space, perhaps Armstrong's first moon landing, but who will remember the second person to fly into space or the second man to the moon What?
So for many people, Phelps is still the greatest athlete in Olympic history.
