Almighty Athlete Chapter 35: Golden League wins 6 games
From August 3o to September 4, the Asian Athletics Championships were held in South Korea.
The last Asian Athletics Championships was held in the Philippines. Zhang Guan also took to the international stage for the first time in that competition, and then successively defeated Asahara Xuanzhi and the end of Shingo to break the Asian record. Win the championship. The Asian Athletics Championships were held next to the World Athletics Championships. Considering that the competition time is too close, the top domestic players have not participated.
Half a month has passed since this year’s World Athletics Championships. The athletes of the national team have been fully adjusted. Therefore, domestic first-class athletes, including Liu Feiren, went to Incheon, South Korea to participate in this Asian Athletics Championships.
However, this time it was Zhang Guan’s turn to be unable to participate, because the last IAAF Gold League match in Berlin will be held on September 4th, which happens to overlap with the Asian Athletics Championships. Zhang Guan has won consecutively Five races, as long as you win the last game, you can get the final prize of 10 million US dollars, so Zhang Guan will not give up the Golden League. At the same time, from the perspective of the national team, the final general of the Golden League is more important than the champion of an Asian track and field championship. Whether it is the amount of prize money, or the difficulty and honor, the Golden League must throw the Asian track and field championship several times. Street.
According to the rules of the IAAF Golden League, as long as you win five races in the six races, you will be eligible to divide the $50 million in prize money equally. At present, in addition to Zhang Guan, Russian long jump queen Lebedeva has also won five races, which means that she and Zhang Guan can already divide the value of 50 million US dollars, in fact, each person already has 250,000 US dollars.
For Zhang Guan and Lebedeva, the last stop of the Golden League in Berlin will be a $50 million match. If both of them win the championship, the remaining 5o will be divided equally. Ten thousand dollars; if neither of them wins the championship, no one can get the remaining $50 million; but if one of them wins the championship and the other one does not win the championship, then the one who wins the championship will enjoy the rest Five hundred thousand dollars.
Although they are in different competitions, they reached the last leg of the Golden League. Instead, it became a competitor. The media around the world have also begun to hype, who will win the final award in the end. Many sports media and sports commentators have also begun to analyze how the final prize of 10 million US dollars will be distributed.
For this reason, Deutsche Welle also conducted a poll specifically for the public. As a result, only 1o% of the people in the public survey believe that it is impossible for Zhang Guan and Lebedova to obtain the official rank of Berlin Station. 13% think that only Lebedova won the championship, 17% think that only Zhang Guan won the championship, 53% think that both can win the championship, and another 7% of the people did not express their views.
The opinions from professional sports people are much more professional.
For example, German professional track and field coach Ewald reported his opinion on the Berlin Day: In the men’s 100-meter sprint event, since the moment Powell withdrew from the current Golden League due to injury. Zhang Guan has no suspense in winning the six consecutive championships in the Golden League. The remaining athletes are far less powerful than Zhang Guan, not to mention that they are all defeated by Zhang Guan. In addition, Zhang Guan arrived in Berlin a week early for the adaptive training for the Golden League Berlin station. For this reason, he missed the IAAF Rieti Grand Prix on August 28. I think for Zhang Guan, the next thing to do is normal swing. In the women's triple jump event, Lebedeva has been troubled by injuries. For this reason, he also gave up the World Athletics Championships in the last match of the Golden League Brussels. Lebedeva actually played with injuries, but for Lebedeva, the good news is that her biggest competitor, World Championship champion Smith, also played with injuries.
Lebedeva’s ankles have been injured. In the previous World Championships, Lebedeva also missed due to injuries, but her injury has obviously not reached the point where she can’t play normally. Everyone can see it. Lebedeva was deliberately truce to prepare for the Golden League. She went to the final prize of 10 million dollars. Compared to the final prize of 10 million dollars in the Golden League. The championship prize of the World Athletics Championships is only 10,000 euros, even if it breaks the world record, it is only an additional 10 million euros.
Leibedeva’s main opponent in the triple jump event was Jamaican Smith, who was fourth in the women’s triple jump event at the Athens Olympics. In addition to participating in the Golden League, she also participated in this year's World Championships in Athletics. In the World Athletics Championships, Smith won the triple jump, but was also injured. She missed the Gold League Zurich and Brussels. The Gold League Berlin was the battle after her recovery. No one can tell how many states there are.
The $10 million competition between Zhang Guan and Lebedova is obviously the biggest attraction of the Golden League Berlin station and the biggest attraction of the entire series of Golden League. Since the two belong to different projects, the arrangement of the game sequence becomes very important.
The one who plays first will win a lot of pressure on those who play later. If the one who plays first does not win, it will be easier to play later. Therefore, the athlete who takes the lead in the competition will have a certain initiative. In addition, the nature of the triple jump competition is different from that of the 100-meter sprint. The 100-meter sprint can be completed in two or three minutes from the preparation to the end of the game. However, the triple jump competition is where each player jumps separately. There are less than eight people, so each person is allowed to jump six times, so the triple jump competition is quite long compared to the 100-meter sprint.
In the end, the organizer made a compromise plan, the triple jump competition started first, and the 100-meter sprint competition was conducted during the triple jump competition.
It's finally time for the game. When Lebedeva appeared on the runway, cheers burst into the audience.
As the champion of the last women’s triple jump, Lebedeva made the last of all the contestants. She waved to the audience, beckoning everyone to calm down, and then prepared to start running.
Leedeva ran in a run, jump, step, jump, but when she fell into the sand pool, her face was not very beautiful. Her first jump only picked out 13.93 meters. This result is a very scumbag for her athletes of this level. In the previous few Golden League matches, Lebedeva only scored twice under 13.93 meters. This can be said to be the third worst result of Lebedeva in the current Yellow League series.
Leibedeva is fortunate that her main competitor, Jamaican Smith, also did not perform well. Only 14 meters has just come out, it seems that Smith's injury has not healed. So Lebedova started to adjust the state tightly, ready to deal with the next game.
At this time, all the eight athletes who took part in the men’s 100m stand on the runway. Waiting for the referee's instructions.
"The men's 100m game is about to start!" The voice of dJ in the field attracted Lebedeva's attention. Lebedeva saw the Zhang Guan doing warm-up exercises at the starting point, with yellow skin in the crowd Especially prominent among black athletes.
"Zhang Guan is also going to participate. If he wins, I will score less than 250,000 US dollars. No, you have to put a little pressure on him. The next jump must be good. I want to win in one jump! "Lebedeva walked to the runway while thinking.
Run-up, one-leg jump, stride jump, and jump are still perfect movements. And that moment that fell into the sand, Lebedeva smiled on her face. She knew that she had just jumped on the 15-meter mark, which was enough for her to win the championship.
"Okay, won! Audiences, you can cheer for me!" Lebedeva waited for the cheers from the audience, but waited for a sigh.
"What's wrong?" Lebedeva looked sharply, but now the referee raised the red flag.
Lebedeva fouled this jump and the score was invalid.
In order to get a good result in this jump, Lebedeva just chose the jump point to be more extreme. So it was a foul to step on the line when taking off. However, Lebedeva did not realize this at first, and thought he had created a good result.
Leipedeva’s mood was more or less affected by the foul of the second jump, but as an experienced athlete, she quickly adjusted her mood. Prepare for the third jump.
Not far away, the men’s 100-meter race still has no order, and Lebedeva finally waited for his third jump.
This time, the audience gave a warm applause to Lebedeva. Her third jump jumped 14.78 meters, which was already the first among all contestants.
Lebedeva began to bow and thank him. As if she had already won the championship, she took the $10 million grand prize in her hand.
But only two minutes later, the Sudanese Aldama emerged suddenly, jumped 14.82 meters and crossed Lebedeva.
At the same time, the gunshot of the 100-meter sprint sounded.
"Zhang Guan has taken the lead!"
The camera is aimed at Zhang Guan. As the track next to it moves forward, every movement and expression of Zhang Guan is included in the lens. As for other athletes, although they work very hard, at this moment they have also become a companion to the prince. ~IndoMTL.com~ Everyone is waiting for the moment when Zhang Guan crosses the line. No one will care about the second. For the name.
"Zhang Guan, crossed the line! He won the championship! He became the million dollar winner! Six wins! He is the fourth athlete to win the million prize." The commentator then introduced: "In Before 2oo3 years, the Golden League directly rewarded 5o kilograms of gold. After 2oo3 years, the Golden League was changed to a million dollar prize. Prior to this, there were Mozambican athlete Mutola, Bahamian athlete Darin Williams and Swedish athlete Orr Three pine athletes once won the million prize! However, according to the rules of the competition, Lebedeva’s five-game winning streak has also won 250,000 dollars in the million prize. Now, this year’s million dollar prize is won by two. If people split equally, it’s still a one-three split, depending on Lebedev’s next performance!"
The pressure has shifted to Lebedeva. (To be continued.)
