Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 353 The Changing International Arena

After the Indoor World Championships, Guo Zizhao returned home with the rest of the team this time.

Guo Zizhao does not plan to participate in many international competitions this year. Apart from the just-concluded Indoor World Championships, there will be the Outdoor Athletics World Championships in August and the World Universiade in early September.

The World Athletics Championships must be participated in, the World Universiade, Guo Zizhao's purpose of participating is to become a champion of the 4x100m relay.This is to fulfill the hidden rules of the system, otherwise, Guo Zizhao would not want to bully others in a low-level competition like the Universiade.

Therefore, when Guo Zizhao proposed to participate in the Universiade this year, even his father and Song Ping were surprised.

"Did you make a mistake, baby! You are the king of sprinting in the world, and you still go to participate in these competitions. Isn't that anti-aircraft guns to shoot mosquitoes!" Dad is also very strange about Guo Zizhao's request.

"That's right! The World Universiade last year was held in the capital, and this is a political task, so you must participate. Why are you going to participate this year?" Song Ping also asked curiously, "Your child, now, don't you even Are you participating in the Golden League and the IAAF Grand Prix selectively? Why are you running to join in the excitement?"

"Hey... at the Universiade last year, the relay race was against the rules! I will definitely win this relay champion back this time!" Guo Zizhao also made a vow, "I will not participate in other events this time. Just take part in a relay race. I won’t believe it, I won’t be able to win this championship!"

You are lying...

Dad and Song Ping also pursed their mouths, squinted at Guo Zizhao a few times with the eyes of a second-handed youth.Make it up, just make it up for me...

Guo Zizhao saw that everyone looked like this, so he stopped talking nonsense and started playing tricks, "I just want to participate in a relay race, what can I do? I'm going, I'm going... ..."

"Okay! Just go, what are you talking about... Who told you to be our boss?" Song Ping also smiled wryly, "You are so shameless now, you really have the demeanor of my youth ah……"

"That's right! Who made our two families be considered relatives now! Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black!" Guo Zizhao also immediately complained, "Then this matter is settled like this!"

"Go away...I don't have a relative as shameless as you."

……

After less than a month of rest after returning to China, Guo Zizhao and others had to fly to Tehran again.

It turned out that in mid-April this year, the first Asian Indoor Athletics Championships opened in Tehran, the capital of Iran.As the most famous track and field athlete in Asia, Guo Zizhao also received a warm invitation from the Asian Athletics Federation early on.

There is no way, the face of the Asian Athletics Federation still has to be given.Besides, this is also the first indoor competition, so I still have to stand on the platform.Although there are no system rewards for this level of competition, Guo Zizhao still spent a few days to become the finale star.

In the next two months, Guo Zizhao just lived his life in school honestly, attending classes and training, and going out for business promotion when he had nothing to do.Life is so comfortable...

In July, Guo Zizhao finally started this year's international competition again.Before the World Athletics Championships in late August, in the past two months, Guo Zizhao also planned to participate in three Golden Leagues and four Grands Prix.

The current Guo Zizhao has long passed the time to prove himself with competitions and achievements.Participating in the competition is just to get some competition points so as to maintain one's own international ranking.The second thing is to meet the requirements of the advertising agency.After all, one has to participate in a certain number of international competitions every year in order to maintain exposure.

As for the competition events, the Golden League has 100m and 110m hurdles this year, so Guo Zizhao participated in both.The remaining 200 meters and 400 meters had to be put on the grand prix.

. . . . . .

In the nearly two months of competition, Guo Zizhao naturally won the championship all the way, and no opponent could pose the slightest threat to him.

This year's men's [-]-meter sprint results, except for Guo Zizhao who has maintained a stable and outstanding performance, the results of the others have experienced a considerable decline.

"Old flying man" Maurice Green's state this year can be described as ups and downs.Due to the impact of injuries, this buddy even gave up the Indoor World Championships this year, but the final recovery effect was not satisfactory.

It is estimated that he was afraid that under full play, it would cause repeated attacks of tendinitis, so Green was a little bit concerned about gains and losses during the game.His best time this year was only 9 seconds.But even so, this result is the best result except Guo Zizhao.

And another player who surprised people was Montgomery, who made a big splash in the past two years.This one also did not participate in the Indoor World Championships in March because of being implicated by his coach.

And in the months that followed, Montgomery's performance in various games was also completely lacking.Not only did he not have the strength to run within 9 seconds 80 in the previous two years, but even the number of times he ran within 10 seconds was very small.

Especially in early July, when his girlfriend Jones gave birth to a son for Montgomery, the buddy completely disappeared from the international arena, and went home to be a competent dad with peace of mind.

It was not until the British Grand Prix, the last stop before the start of the World Championships, that this buddy made a belated comeback.But the funny thing is that Montgomery only ran 10 seconds and didn't even enter the final.What a shame...

……

However, different from the performance of these veterans, the few newcomers of the 3-meter sprint that appeared in the international arena this year really caught people's eyes.Among them, Justin Gatlin, who won the runner-up at the Indoor World Championships in March, is the first to be promoted.

In the men's 100-meter race of the Golden League, this athlete won one championship and was the runner-up in two.They lost to Guo Zizhao and Green respectively.At the same time, he also won the runner-up in the men's 100 meters and 200 meters in a Grand Prix.It can be said that he is the best rookie player this year.

The performance of another American rookie, Tyson Gay, was a bit tepid, but he also had the [-]-meter runner-up in two Grand Prix races.

There are also Chen Haijian and Darrell Brown who also appeared at the "Top [-]-meter Flyer Gathering" at the end of last year.

Although Chen Haijian's performance in the 60-meter dash is average, his performance in the 100-meter dash is very good. His current performance has stabilized at within 10 seconds, and he is only one step away from the 15 mark. .Darrell Brown of Trinidad and Tobago had slightly better results than Chen Haijian, swinging around 10 seconds in several games.

In addition to these few, Guo Zizhao also found another familiar name Asafa Powell among the contestants in the international competition.

……

Tsk tsk tsk... This is the last of the Big Three in 82.Powell's best time this year has reached 10 seconds, and he is also a young sprinter with good strength.I just don't know what kind of results Powell can achieve in this year's World Championships!

Hehe...Speaking of which, this buddy broke world records many times in his previous life.But when it comes to big competitions such as the Olympics or the World Championships, there will always be inexplicable either poor condition or injury.

Anyway, although Powell has been very successful in his life, his only regret is that he did not win any World Series championship.I hope this buddy can change this tragic fate in this life...

Eh...that's not right. As long as I'm here in this life, it doesn't matter whether he was one of the Big Three in 82 or the top five sprinters, he has no future!hey-hey……
