Zizhao Chuan: The Biggest Sportsman

Chapter 496 Contest with Upstarts

Apart from Chen Yanhao's successful retirement, veteran Shen Yunbao's condition this year is also not as good as before.

Since winning two gold medals in the sprint relay at the World Championships and the Olympic Games, the 29-year-old veteran seems to have let out a sigh of relief. There is no such thing as the previous two years in this year's domestic competition. It's hard work.

In addition, Shen Yunbao is also constantly injured now, and he spends more time recovering from his injuries than during training.Therefore, the veteran also consciously gave up his position as the main player of the relay team, allowing Xu Ziyu to take on the heavy responsibility of the first bat.

The two new substitutes for the relay team are young Hu Kai and Wen Yongyi.

"Glass Man" Hu Kai's progress this year is still relatively obvious. He ran a personal best of 10 seconds in the domestic track and field grand prix.Although he failed to qualify for the men's 25m individual event this time, he still came to see the world as a substitute member of the relay team.

After the current World Athletics Championships, Hu Kai will also rush to Turkey to participate in the men's 23-meter dash at the [-]rd World Universiade.Therefore, it is still very beneficial for him to come to the World Championships to experience it now.

As for Wen Yongyi, it is the biggest surprise in the domestic sprint event this year.

Wen Yongyi, who just turned 17 this year, won the championship of the 60-meter sprint for three consecutive stops in the domestic indoor track and field series at the beginning of the year, and the best one of them reached 6 seconds.

Although this result was nothing in Guo Zizhao's eyes, it made the entire field management center ecstatic.Apart from Guo Zizhao, this is the second runner to break 60 seconds in the indoor 6-meter sprint event!Even Shen Yunbao, who was at his peak two years ago, had a best time of 60 seconds.

Especially Wen Yongyi is only 17 years old this year!

Even if Guo Zizhao is at his age, he can't achieve such amazing results!The field management center also immediately recruited Wen Yongyi into the national team as a key training object.

From everyone's point of view, this young man is also a genius at the same level as Liu Feifei. As long as he is trained well, he might become a world champion again!Moreover, Wen Yongyi's best time in the 100-meter dash also reached 10 seconds. Although it is not as amazing as his 30-meter dash, it is also promising!
So this time at the World Athletics Championships, Wen Yongyi was also used as a substitute player in the relay race, bringing accumulated experience to him.

Guo Zizhao also had a little impression of Wen Yongyi, who is highly valued by the national team, in his previous life.It seems that this little brother's career has also been high and low. Although he has become a first-class sprinter in the country, he has never achieved the goal that everyone expected.Later, Zhang Peimeng and Su Bingtian, who had grown up gradually, stole the limelight...

Alas... I hope that in this life, Wen Yongyi can achieve a greater breakthrough than in his previous life!

……

In addition to these domestic teammates, other participating international players also arrived in Helsinki one after another.It's just that this time, Jamaican flying man Powell, who is one of the focuses of everyone's attention, can only be a helpless bystander.

Just a few days ago in the Golden League in Oslo, Powell accidentally strained his groin in the [-]-meter race and failed to finish the race.The post-match examination found that Powell's injury will take at least a month to fully recover.Therefore, this year's World Athletics Championships in Helsinki, Powell had no choice but to give up.

And the first confrontation of the "Big Three in 82" on the [-]-meter track in the top race that the audience was looking forward to could only turn into a civil war between Gatlin and Gay.

As for the men's 110-meter hurdles, Johnson, Dukure, Liu Feifei and Trammell, four players who have the strength to run within 13 seconds, will compete again after the Athens Olympics.As for who wins and who loses this time, everyone is also curious!
In the men's 200-meter sprint event, apart from Guo Zizhao, it is also a competition between Spielmon, Gay, Gatlin and Bolt who can run within 20 seconds.

As for the men's 400-meter race, Guo Zizhao is far ahead. Before this World Championships, no other player except Guo Zizhao could run within 44 seconds!

The event that attracted everyone's attention was actually the men's 4x100m sprint competition.The Chinese team has won the men's sprint relay championship in the World Championships and the Olympic Games for two consecutive years.If it can successfully defend the title again this time, it will be an amazing three consecutive championships!

In the history of world track and field, apart from the American team that has always dominated the world of track and field, that is, only the once powerful Canadian team has had such an honor.

At the 1995 World Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden, the 1996 Atlanta Olympics and the 1997 World Championships in Athens, Greece, the Canadian team won the men's 4x100-meter sprint relay championship for three consecutive years.It not only suppressed the US team to death, but also let the world track and field see the strong strength of the Canadian flyers.

Thinking that the Chinese team may also achieve this goal in this World Championships, everyone is full of expectations!
……

On August 8, the 6th World Athletics Championships kicked off at the Olympic Stadium in Helsinki, Finland.

In the men's sprint event that attracted the most attention, Guo Zizhao really started the sweeping mode again as before.

At 8:7 p.m. on August 9, the final of the men's 30-meter sprint officially started.In addition to Guo Zizhao, Chinese player Chen Haijian also successfully entered the final again, while another Chinese player, Yang Yaozhou, regrettably stopped in the semi-final.

Facing Gatlin, who has already run 9 seconds, Guo Zizhao dare not be careless.My current naked running time is only 77 seconds 9. Although I am confident that I can beat the opponent, what if Gatlin explodes in the final?Then he was capsized in the gutter!
It's fine if it's the Golden League, Guo Zizhao doesn't want to lose in the final of the World Championships!
Hehe... After this World Championship is over, I have achieved the "three consecutive championships" for three consecutive World Championships!And it is also the "three consecutive championships" of four individual sprint events!Guo Zizhao doesn't want to give up such an impressive record!
Therefore, Guo Zizhao did not hesitate to equip himself with "powerful advanced stride running shoes".Isn't it just 50 points of experience, it's just drizzle for me now...

In the end, Guo Zizhao found that he had overestimated his opponent.

9 second 67!

Guo Zizhao once again easily won the final with an astonishing result!Throwing away No.2's Gatlin by nearly two meters.

Gatlin's performance was actually not bad, and he won the runner-up with a time of 9 seconds.Gay crossed the finish line third with a time of 82 seconds.

接下来是牙买加选手弗拉特的10秒05和柯林斯的10秒06，陈亥健以10秒08的成绩排在了第六位，也算是发挥出了自己的最好水平。

……

In the next few days, there will be no problems for Guo Zizhao in the men's 110m hurdles, 200m and 400m preliminaries and semifinals.

And Liu Feifei, Yang Yaozhou and Xu Ziyu also successfully entered the finals of their respective events.However, Shi Dongpeng's performance was not very stable this time, and he ranked ninth with a time of 13 seconds. Unfortunately, he stopped in the semi-finals.

At 8:11 p.m. on August 10, the men's 200-meter sprint final kicked off again.

Facing the three super rookies this year, Spielmont, Guy and Bolt, Guo Zizhao showed no mercy.

Just a naked run with all his strength, Guo Zizhao won another gold medal with a time of 19 seconds.

加特林以19秒96的成绩获得亚军，斯皮尔蒙20秒02获得季军，然后就是盖伊的20秒10和博尔特的20秒20。而杨耀洲这次跑出了20秒31的成绩，排在了决赛的第六位。

Guo Zizhao was not surprised that Gatlin won the runner-up this time.In the original history, Gatlin won the "double crown" of the men's 100-meter and 200-meter dash in this World Championships.This is also the second sprinter in history to win this honor since Green's 1999 World Championships.

It's just that in this life, with Guo Zizhao's intervention, although Gatlin's performance has improved significantly compared to his previous life, he has suddenly changed from "Double Champion" to "Double Asia King"!I just don't know whether Gatling should be happy or depressed after knowing the truth?

But what puzzled Guo Zizhao was that Bolt's time this time was only 20 seconds. It shouldn't be...
