Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 382 The Bragging King Guo Zizhao?
The members of the Chinese representative team participating in this year's Indoor World Championships are basically old faces that Guo Zizhao is familiar with.

Chen Haijian and Shen Yunbao also participated in the men's 60 meters again.After winning the world championship relay last year, the two are now in a very full state of mind.

Especially Shen Yunbao, who is old and strong, although he is 28 years old this year, he also won the 60-meter championship for two consecutive rounds in the domestic indoor track and field series that just ended.This year's best result is 6 seconds, even better than last year's performance.Therefore, everyone is also full of expectations for his performance in this year's Indoor World Championships.

What makes Guo Zizhao regret is that another veteran Chen Yanhao is absent.Chen Yanhao, who is 32 years old this year, can be regarded as a thorough veteran.Being able to maintain his peak state until now is beyond Chen Yanhao's expectations.

But even so, Chen Yanhao is now suffering from constant injuries, and his physical strength and energy are also unable to cope with long-term travel outside the game.Therefore, in order to prepare for the Olympic Games in August in a better state, Chen Yanhao also had to give up all international competitions this year.It's just a matter of self-cultivation and training in China, and then participating in two national grand prix warm-ups.

And the one who replaced Chen Yanhao to get this entry is of course the young player Shi Dongpeng who Guo Zizhao is familiar with.

However, in Guo Zizhao's opinion, Shi Dongpeng's speed, strength and endurance are all good, but his flexibility and coordination need to be strengthened.So in the 110-meter hurdles event, Shi Dongpeng still has a bit of an advantage, but for the 60-meter hurdles, which requires more technical and explosive power, his results may be a bit worse.

……

As for the other international contestants, Alan Johnson and other hurdlers basically all came.Three months later, we met again and had a happy chat.

However, Maurice Green missed the game again.The former "world flying man" is now suffering from tendinitis, and the number of international competitions he participates in every year is gradually decreasing.

As for Montgomery, who was once glorious in the past two years, he is now suffering from bad luck.Since his failure at last year's World Championships in Paris, this guy's sprint performance has begun to take a turn for the worse.This year, he didn’t even pass the trials for the World Indoor Championships.

Such an abnormal performance also aggravated everyone's suspicion that Montgomery had used doping.

In addition to these two, old opponents such as Gatlin, Chambers, Gardner, Collins, and Obikveru have all come. When the remarks are more interesting.

"Are you really sure to break the world record again?" Obikevilu also had a disbelieving expression on his face.

"That's it!" Guo Zizhao said in a very stinking manner, "I broke the record last year, but, hehe... I plan to break it all at once this year!"

"You just blow it..." Gardner also booed, "If you have the strength, you will break it sooner? Why wait until now?"

"You know what a fart!" Guo Zizhao also gave this guy a blank look, and said proudly, "Why is it my style to make small troubles? I plan to put all the records in this year Let’s break it, how shocking it is!”

"I rely on...putting it all in one year to break it?" Gardner also asked in surprise, "Don't tell me the record in the outdoor competition, you plan to break it this year too? This is a bit bragging! "

"That's right, that's right!" Others couldn't believe it, but Guo Zizhao's records in outdoor competitions were really astonishing.Those experts even predicted that Guo Zizhao's world records would not be refreshed again for at least ten years.

Now Guo Zizhao actually said that he would break them all again. Is this possible?

……

在2001年的埃德蒙顿世锦赛上，郭子昭当时一下子就创造了男子100米、200米、400米和110米栏四个项目的世界纪录，可以说是的确震惊了整个世界。

And at the Athletics World Cup a year later, Guo Zizhao once again broke the men's 100-meter and 110-meter hurdles world records with astonishing results.

It's only been a few years, and Guo Zizhao actually said that he can break these world records again?This is too incredible!

在现如今的这几项世界纪录中，男子100米的世界纪录是9秒69、200米是19秒30、400米是43秒15、110米栏是12秒82。

It can be said that Guo Zizhao is the only player who can run in 100 seconds for 9 meters and 70 seconds for 110 meters hurdles in international track and field.In these two events alone, the gap between the other contestants and Guo Zizhao is at least 12 seconds. Who would have thought that Guo Zizhao would still be dissatisfied?
Not to mention the 200-meter and 400-meter events.In today's international track and field, the strength of men's 200 meters and 400 meters has shrunk quite seriously.

Judging from the international competitions in the past two years, that is, the American star Sean Crawford has the ability to run within 200 seconds in the men's 20m event.As for the men's 400 meters, after Michael Johnson retired, Guo Zizhao was the only player who could run within 44 seconds.

Thinking of this, these players also felt chills all over their bodies.Unexpectedly, Guo Zizhao now has such a huge advantage in sprint events, and he is still so dissatisfied!He actually wants to break the world record again this year!This idea is really crazy...

……

Soon, the competition of this year's Indoor World Championships will officially begin.

Guo Zizhao has to complete a total of twelve games in four events in the three-day schedule, and he is quite nervous about the schedule.

For track events, the competition on the first day is basically the preliminaries and semi-finals.All of Guo Zizhao's entries were naturally easy to pass.

The performance of other teammates of the national team is also very satisfactory.Chen Haijian, Shen Yunbao, Liu Feifei and Shi Dongpeng also successfully entered the semi-finals.

However, after the second day's semi-final, Chen Haijian and Shi Dongpeng were eliminated again.And Shen Yunbao and Liu Feifei, together with Guo Zizhao, successfully broke into the finals of the men's 60m and 60m hurdles held in the evening.

Such a result is also expected by everyone. After all, Chen Haijian's main event has always been the 100-meter sprint, and the indoor 60-meter event has never been his strong point.And Shi Dongpeng participated in such a world competition for the first time, and he was able to enter the semi-finals, which can be regarded as a qualified performance.

The two men's 60-meter and 60-meter hurdles finals held in the evening also attracted strong attention from sports media and sports fans all over the world.

Guo Zizhao threatened to break the world records of these two events a week ago, and now it's time to see the result immediately.Can everyone not pay attention?

The world record for the indoor 60-meter sprint is 2001 seconds set by Guo Zizhao at the Lisbon Indoor World Championships in 6!Among the active athletes, except for Guo Zizhao, that is, the former flying man Green, who has run out of 37 seconds twice.

The world record in the 60-meter hurdles is still Guo Zizhao's 7 seconds at last year's World Indoor Championships in Birmingham!At the same time, Guo Zizhao is also the only player who can run below 28 seconds in this event.

Therefore, the high level of these two world records is universally recognized.When Guo Zizhao threatened to break these two records again, all the media's remarks were also cautious and even skeptical.

After all, Guo Zizhao has rarely participated in international indoor competitions in the past two years, and after Guo Zizhao created these two world records, he never ran similar results again.So in everyone's opinion, Guo Zizhao was able to create this record back then, but he just caught up with the explosive state!

Even some extreme Western media mocked Guo Zizhao in their reports, "Guo Zizhao made two extremely absurd predictions at the end of last year, and now he is threatening to break the world record again. Hehe... It seems that the former sprinter The king, now he has become a braggart! We can only rely on such means to sensationalize and attract everyone's attention..."
