Chapter 95 The first shot of the reversal! One battle decides the outcome!
"Okay, the live broadcast below is the fourth group preliminaries of the men's 100m butterfly of the Swimming World Cup!"
"You may have seen that Chen Shu is in the fourth lane!"
"As for Chen Shu's butterfly level, I believe you should have seen it in Paris. In the men's 4*100m medley final, Chen Shu swam the third butterfly, and his segment score was 50.49 seconds, which is a very good result. Wang Changhao's personal best PB is also about this segment!"
"So we can still look forward to it!"
Niu Yinhao watched Chen Shu take off his down jacket and began to slap his muscles all over his body. The players in the two lanes next to him still attracted his attention.
Looking down at the qualifying list, Niu Yinhao said: "But Chen Shu's opponents in this group are a bit strong. The world record holder for short and long courses, Dressel, who won five gold medals in the last Winter Olympics, is in the same group with him!"
"Although Dressel performed poorly in this event in the Paris Olympics and did not even make the finals in the men's 100 butterfly, his strength should not be underestimated. Rumor has it that he was infected with the new coronavirus during the Olympics!"
"But his condition was indeed up and down before, but for the 25-year-old Dressel, everything is possible. After all, he has 7 world records!"
|= |
"He has four world records in this short pool!"
"This 100-meter butterfly is one of them. He swam the best 100-meter butterfly in the world in a 25-meter pool - 47.78 seconds!"
"At the same time, he should also be Chen Shu's biggest opponent in this World Cup. The world record for the 50-meter freestyle short pool was also created by Dressel in 2020 - 20.16 seconds!"
"Can Chen Shu challenge him this time?"
"Let's wait and see!"
Chen Shu was already standing on the starting platform at this time.
He put on his goggles and looked at the pool, waiting for the moment when the starting gun sounded and he entered the water!
For this battle, he was already impatient!
He will fire the first shot of this reversal after the frustration of China in the morning!
Of course he knew that Dressel, the unparalleled king of the short pool, was in the same group with him.
Chen Shu is very clear about the strength of this old rival who Paris has played against many times. Although Paris only won a few relay medals, his strong points of short-distance freestyle, butterfly and medley were not performed well, and some did not even enter the finals, but it should not be a decline in form.
The discomfort of the swimming pool, coupled with the possibility of being yang like Qin Haiyang, led to various defeats.
Now seeing that he is full of energy and even glanced at Chen Shu a few times, Chen Shu believes that this guy should have recovered somewhat. As for whether he has reached the peak, this will only be known after the competition.
And the 100-meter butterfly was also the first time for Chen Shu to swim with him.
At the beginning of this year, this guy swam 51.31 seconds in the long-course men's 100-meter butterfly and 48.8 seconds in the 100-meter freestyle at the US Swimming Open.5, both are the strongest active players in the United States.
The condition should still be OK!
"I didn't expect you to sign up for the 100-meter butterfly?"
Dressel's voice suddenly rang in Chen Shu's ears.
Chen Shu glanced at him and didn't say anything.
"I was terrible at the Paris Olympics!"
"But this time, it won't be so easy!"
"I will take back everything I lost in the Paris Olympics!"
Dressel threw a mouth cannon, put on his goggles fiercely, and then stood in front of the starting platform, exuding a fighting spirit.
It has to be said that with five gold medals and multiple world records in hand, this guy's aura is quite strong.
"The King is back?"
Chen Shu smiled and suddenly said to him: "This is China's territory!"
"You first, let's talk about it after you pass me!"
Pah!
Chen Shu regained his composure, listened to the sound of the game starting, and suddenly jumped into the swimming pool.
It was almost a natural reflex.
Strong body and master-level reaction time gave Chen Shu an absolute inertia, and he could enter the water at the first time.
0.28 seconds!
A reaction time that made all the swimming enthusiasts, including Cui Dengrong, stunned.
Dressel's reaction to entering the water ranked second, which was 0.48!
Chen Shu was 0.2 seconds faster than him!
So the moment he came out of the water, Chen Shu was in the lead, and Dressel almost didn't react when he came out of the water.
"0.28 seconds!"
"Chen Shu's reaction time into the water is amazing!"
"It's really amazing!"
"Chen Shu is now in the lead, and Delsel is in second place after coming out of the water. They both seem to be in good shape!"
Niu Yinhao was explaining, and Shi Mingbo in the backfield smiled at Cui Dengrong and said, "See, this kid's reaction into the water should have mastered the trick, otherwise it would be impossible to jump out such an extreme reaction time every time!"
"With this take-off, he is a few tenths of a second ahead of others!"
"I'll ask him after the swim!"
Cui Dengrong was also talking, but his eyes were looking at the swimming pool.
"Brother Shu's butterfly stroke is pretty good now!"
"It has a lot of ups and downs, and the sense of power is really good!"
"It's already 90% of Changhao's level..."
Pan Zhanle didn't expect that after not seeing Chen Shu for a few months, his butterfly stroke has become almost visibly stronger; according to the past, even if he maintained the lead at the start, he would basically be caught up by his opponent soon.
This time, Chen Shu was ahead until the first 25 meters to the edge.
"It's really improved!"
Cui Dengrong was somewhat relieved, but his expression suddenly froze.
The first 25 meters had been swum, and Chen Shu was turning in the water, but Dressel behind him was chasing closely and had already caught up.
After getting out of the water,He even surpassed Chen Shu and took the lead.
"Dressel has recovered!"
Cui Dengrong's face became very serious.
"This is a big trouble!"
It is indeed bad news.
Everyone knows the strength of the five-gold king.
Once Dressel recovers, even if he can't reach the strength of Phelps back then, he will have absolute dominance in the short distance. Basically, he is the first in the three events of 50-200 meters, freestyle, butterfly and medley.
"Mingbo, please check how many events Dressel has registered for the Swimming World Cup?"
Cui Dengrong stared at the big screen. Dressel had completed the second 50-meter turn at this time, and Chen Shu had just reached the edge. The two were already half a body apart, although Chen Shu was still in second place.
"This guy's underwater turn is too time-consuming!"
On average, he is 0.3 seconds slower than Dressel, so the three turns in the 100-meter butterfly are 0.9 seconds slower!
Dressel's underwater turn is undoubtedly world-class. Maybe Pan Zhanle is worse than him. After all, this guy is too fierce in the short pool. All of them are his world records. Even the kicking force of underwater turn is also smooth and natural.
With a kicking sprint, he swam half of the 25-meter short pool.
Chen Shu can only kick 7 or 8 meters. The rest is to use his swimming speed to try to close the distance between him and Dressel.
Unfortunately, the two people are getting farther and farther away in the first 50 meters.
Splash!
Chen Shu can feel the sound of waves coming from the lane beside him. This belongs to Dressel.
He surpassed himself, and the distance between him and Dressel was getting bigger and bigger.
"This guy has really recovered his strength!"
"No wonder he dared to talk nonsense before the game!"
The situation at this time did not allow Chen Shu to think too much.
Fortunately, after 60 meters, when he saw that Dressel was about to pull away from him——
Grandmaster-level sprint!
Hula~
The waves were extremely turbulent, and they kept hitting behind Chen Shu every time he stood up in butterfly stroke.
He stood up and fell quickly, but the distance he moved forward each time was much longer than that in the Paris Olympics.
"Chen Shu raised his legs!"
Niu Yinhao also shouted loudly: "He was caught up by Dressel when he turned 25 meters, and now he is sprinting the last 40 meters!"
"Everyone should know that Chen Shu is very strong in the latter part of the race!"
"Now I hope he can overtake!"
"Chen Shu, come on!"
"Go!"
Everyone saw Chen Shu speeding up at almost the same time.
The speed and lateral movement brought by the butterfly stroke simply blinded everyone's eyes.
He sprinted faster than before.
Soon, almost in the blink of an eye, the gap between him and Dressel wasThe distance began to close. When they turned for the third time at 75 meters, the two were already neck and neck. Dressel, who was originally in the lead, was shocked.
When did this guy catch up?
Such a fast speed?
When did the 100-meter butterfly become so powerful? !
Wow...
Dressel hurriedly turned underwater for the third time and widened the distance between him and Chen Shu again. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Hey, almost!"
"Just a little bit!"
"It's okay, there's still a chance!"
"After Chen Shu turned around, he continued to rush towards Dressel!"
"The distance between the two began to gradually close again. Good, Chen Shu's back-end is still so stable. He is definitely a super back-end player!"
Niu Yinhao watched the two people close the distance bit by bit.
85 meters, 90 meters, 95 meters!
“…”
The audience, netizens watching the live broadcast, the swimming team members in the backstage lounge, including Cui Dengrong and Chen Yuzhe holding a mobile phone, and the track and field team players, all held their breath and watched the two figures approaching.
The waves have begun to splash. The short pool is full of waves, so everyone only saw two groups of white waves flying, constantly approaching the finish line.
“Speed up, Brother Shu!”
“Overtake!”
“Overtake!”
“Kill Dressel, you can do it!”
Pan Zhanle and others had already stood up and roared, but Cui Dengrong suddenly saw a white line symbolizing the world record suddenly moving horizontally in front of Dressel and Chen Shu.
"Dressel's short-course world record!"
"This guy is in such a strong state, he is close to his own world record?"
Cui Dengrong's eyes widened. He was talking about Dressel, of course, but the rolling waves showed that Chen Shu was a little faster than the white line.
On the other hand, Dressel was behind the white line.
"Huh?"[]
This scene was obviously seen by everyone.
With a few meters left to the finish line, Chen Shu completed the final overtaking of Dressel.
"Yes!"
"Awesome!"
"Brother Shu yyds!"
Everyone in the backcourt shouted, and some even jumped high.
In their sight, Chen Shu, at an extremely strange speed, slammed his hand to the shore of the short course in advance.
At this time, Dressel slid to the finish line along with the 47.78 seconds 100-meter butterfly short-course world record he created.
"..."
Suffocate!
Everyone in the swimming lounge suffocated.
Including Cui Dengrong, who also opened his mouth and looked at Chen Shu, who was leaning against the finish line and gasping for breath. This guy really risked his life.
He was breathing a little fast.
But... he won.
He actually beat Dressel who was in such a great state?
He beat Dressel who almost broke his own world record.
Doesn't that mean——
Wow!
Then, the players in the fourth group of qualifiers arrived at the edge of the swimming pool one after another, 2 seconds slower than Chen Shu and Dressel!
What kind of terrifying gap is this?
"This kid, has the butterfly stroke been so fast?"
"Only 2 months!!!"
Cui Dengrong muttered there, and everyone couldn't believe what they saw.
Chen Shu actually completed the final kill of Dressel, who was completely dominant in this event, in the last few meters? !
If it was Dressel in the Paris Olympics, surpassing him would not be a big deal.
But Dressel obviously came with revenge, otherwise he couldn't have swum so hard in a mere preliminaries!
But Dressel still lost!
Lost to Chen Shu, who was participating in the 100-meter butterfly event for the first time.
"Ah——"
Chen Shu suddenly stretched out his hands and slapped the swimming surface of the short pool.
The waves flew across the camera, and in this domineering shout, an extremely clear number jumped out in the timer of the final result display!
47.58!
47.58!
The camera gave Chen Shu, who stretched out his fists and shouted, a full 5-second freeze frame.
Domineering, full of kingly spirit.
Behind him was Dressel, who was hit by the waves, and he also saw his own time.
47.89!
His frustrated and purple face seemed to be filled with deep reluctance.
But he has become the background of Chen Shu's scene. He created a short-course world record of 47.78 seconds in the men's 100-meter butterfly short course at the Short Course World Championships in Budapest, Hungary on November 21, 2020, which had been maintained for nearly four years. Chen Shu broke it!
Chen Shu created a new short-course world record for the men's 100-meter butterfly.
Boom——
When the number of 47.58 seconds jumped out, everyone was obviously boiling.
"47.58?"
"Chen Shu made history!"
"He set a new world record, 0.2 seconds faster than Dressel!"
"It's really an amazing result!"
"Oh my god, Chen Shu set a new world record for the short-course men's 100-meter butterfly!"
Niu Yinhao was shouting, and the entire Chinese swimming team's backcourt was also shouting. Cui Dengrong was also shaking with excitement by Pan Zhanle and others.
No one expected that the men's 100-meter butterfly event, which everyone was not optimistic about before the game, would actually have such a dramatic scene.
World record?
Chen Shu not only stood out from the preliminaries with 47 seconds, but also won the men's 100-meter butterfly event with 47 seconds.With a score of 58, he advanced to the men's 100-meter butterfly eight-man final in the afternoon, and even created a world record that belonged to him.
2!
Chen Shu currently has two world records in his hands.
In the past, these were all Dressel's.
"Dressel, this guy, actually swam 47.89 seconds, only 0.11 seconds slower than the world record he created!"
"This state is really amazing!"
Cui Dengrong muttered a little.
But the most amazing thing was his disciple, Chen Shu had the last laugh.
"Hey, if this result was swum in the final, it would definitely be China's first gold medal!"
Shi Mingbo sighed there, after all, China has not won a gold medal in the swimming event until now.
"Why think so much!"
"If you can swim once, you can swim again. For a 14-year-old, everything is possible. He is not 24, and he cannot improve and go downhill!"
"Two months ago, could you believe that Chen Shu would break the 100-meter butterfly world record?"
Cui Dengrong smiled at Shi Mingbo, and Shi Mingbo scratched his head: "Haha, that's true!"
"This kid, it's really impossible to predict with normal people's thinking!"
At this time, in the swimming pool, Chen Shu had recovered a little and walked out of the swimming pool.
Seeing that Dressel, who was obviously taking more drugs and had a purple face, was about to leave, Chen Shu suddenly shouted at him: "Hey, you didn't make it through my level!"
"Just wait and see, Chinese boy!"
"There's another game later. The final tonight is the real showdown!"
After saying this, Dressel didn't look like a loser at all. He walked towards the backcourt with his number plate.
It was obvious that he was still very confident.
Of course, he was talking about the men's 50m freestyle preliminaries more than an hour later. He also signed up for seventh place! .
