[The Diamond League is ushering in a much-anticipated matchup, and Gateshead is looking forward to it. 】
According to Beijing time on July 10th, this evening the IAAF Diamond League will usher in perhaps the most exciting competition so far this year. Gay, Bolt, Powell, and Su Shen will compete in the men's 100-meter event. Showdown, the IAAF also previewed this game: All eyes will be focused on the Kitty Eagle Country Diamond Tournament, because there will be the first full showdown between the four giants this season. The Gateshead Order on July 10 People expect.
Powell has run 9.70+ at super wind speed many times, Guy has also run good results many times, and Su Shen, not to mention, is a champion in every result. But looking at it this way, Bolt’s results so far this year are the worst. Quite a bit.
Most of these people have performed well on the Gateshead venue. For example, Powell ran here 4 years ago and tied his own world record of 9.77 seconds. Guy, for example, ran here in the past two years. Undefeated, he won the 200m title in 2008 and the 100m title last year in 10.15 seconds against a headwind.
[Bolt explained why he lost. He hasn’t competed for too long. I will return after a few lightning matches! 】
[Back then, I can only watch Liu Xiang’s live broadcast room and watch Robles win the championship]
Cuban star Robles won the men's 110-meter hurdles championship in 13.01 seconds, winning his fifth outdoor championship this season. The time of 13.01 seconds was also his best result this year. Domestic flying star Liu Xiang, who was once Robles' opponent in the competition, has still not fully recovered and is recovering while training on Ersha Island. As a special commentator, he once again witnessed his former opponent in the stands and won the first place.
Robles participated in six races and won four championships. Robles, who has run under 13 seconds eight times in his career, has never done so this year. The competition implemented the IAAF's latest "zero false start" rule, which also made the atmosphere extremely tense. Czech player Svoboda and Jamaican star Thomas were both disqualified for false starts, leaving only six people in the competition.
After the starting gun sounded again, Robles, who was worried about a false start, deliberately slowed down the pace. His starting reaction time was only 0.189 seconds, ranking at the bottom. However, Robles had already surpassed all the contestants at the half-way mark, and won the championship with a personal best time of 13.01 seconds in the end. The American Wilson won the runner-up in 13.21 seconds, and his compatriot Payne was 0.01 seconds behind. Won third place.
Liu Xiang claimed after the game that Robles was greatly affected by the "zero false start" and had started at a very slow speed many times.
This will affect his ability to achieve better results and breakthroughs.
As for when Liu Xiang himself will be able to join, Liu Xiang himself did not disclose the specific situation.
[IAAF will temporarily suspend Fraser’s spokesperson: No further comments will be made yet]
[The IAAF may use the latest equipment from Sushen Laboratory for testing. This is also the first time for new equipment]
The IAAF announced on the 9th that Beijing Olympic Games women's 100m champion and Jamaican "Flying Female" Fraser failed to pass the post-match drug test at the IAAF Diamond League Magic City Station and will be temporarily suspended. IAAF spokesman Davis said the IAAF would not make any further comment on the matter until the Jamaica Athletics Federation gives their opinion.
Fraser reportedly inadvertently ingested the drug while taking a painkiller for dental disease. While ingesting the drug would not improve a competitor's performance, it would have to be reported to the IAAF before a drug test, something Fraser had forgotten.
In this case, banning is certain, but at least the latest equipment can be used to make it more fair.
"I really hope that Su's latest equipment can help me. From now on, I think I should have a pre-match test for every game. I heard it is fast and good. This way, I can know in advance if there are any problems, so as not to end up like me." Unlucky guy."
This kind of situation is free advertising, and Su Shen's team will not miss it. Su Shen has used this kind of international events to give himself free advertising many times, and the team's experience is already familiar with it.
There is no need for Su Shen to take care of everything himself.
…
[The latest news is that Kitty Hawk Country’s tax policy may hinder this first season gathering of the Big Four. 】
This news was released by Kitty Eagle Country's own media. Many people are not clear about the tax policy for competitions in Kitty Hawk Country, so it must be said here to prevent everyone from thinking that these giants deliberately do not participate in the competition.
According to Kitty Hawk Country's "Daily Mail" report, according to Kitty Hawk Country's new tax policy, if Bolt and others participate in one game in Kitty Hawk Country and compete in five games in other countries, then Kitty Hawk Country will The tax department will require Bolt and others to pay taxes based on 1/6 of their income from these six games, regardless of whether the income is all earned in Kitty Hawk country. And Bolt's taxable income not only includes his expensive appearance fees, but also various high-priced endorsement fees.
In this way, similar to Bolt, the bonus earned in London may not be enough to pay to the government of Kitty Hawk.
"If Bolt comes to London to compete, in addition to paying taxes on half of his appearance fees, he will also have to pay a certain percentage of his income from other countries and endorsements to the government here. As his agent, I actually I am not willing to do so. I also have to consider the interests of the athletes. This is a qualified agent." Rick Simmons talked in front of the camera and was not in a hurry: "If the reduction cannot be reduced in the end, then Usa may Well, it’s true that I won’t participate in the competition.”
After all, it's okay for you to pay appearance fees, but all the income from European endorsements and activities should be turned over just because I want to compete with you? There is no truth in this.
This latest tax law is naturally unwilling.
Previously, Bolt and his temporary agent Sims had agreed to the terms of playing in London, including paying 50% tax to the government of Kitty Hawk on the possible appearance fee of 166,000 pounds. But in the end, under the opposition of core agent Rick Simmons, the request to participate was eventually rejected on the grounds that this might cause the Flyers to be unable to make ends meet.
There have been previous examples of golf star Garcia canceling a match here due to the same reason.
Not a special case.
To this end, Kitty Eagle Country Sports Minister Robertson said in an interview with BBC radio: "If there are any special problems for Bolt, I would be very happy to find out and see if I can help." However, Robertson He pointed out that neither the Kitty Hawk National Athletics Association nor the sponsors of the London leg had contacted him directly.
"So I don't know what exactly we're going to do now."
This is obviously a practice of Tai Chi. What is said is equal to not being said, and what is said is equal to not being said.
Standard official polite words.
After all, there are follow-ups to these words. For example, Robertson also said in a later interview that other projects have encountered the same problem: "If they report this to me, I will convey their opinions to the Ministry of Finance. Golf and tennis players have I have been approached, and I am convinced that after the 2012 London Olympics, these overseas celebrities who come to participate in the Olympics will not be allowed to bear heavy taxes."
Look, even their own people have said that this is "a heavy tax". How can others be willing to do it?
Had it not been for the tax exemption provided by the London Olympics in 2012, it is estimated that no one would have dared to go.
For example, the Football Association has already received tax exemptions for next year's Champions League final at Wembley Stadium. If Kitty Eagle successfully bids to host the 2018 World Cup, they will also apply for the same exemption. However, specific aspects deny exemption to individuals.
This quickly aroused protests from many people.
Su Shen also announced that he will not continue to participate in the Kitty Eagle Country competition, mainly because he has a lot of endorsements here, and all income must be calculated. He will lose much more than Bolt. Although Su Shen now has more money, having more money and being ripped off for nothing are two different things. Su Shen's team announced that Bolt had found a partner and immediately shouted: "Su is a truly understanding person. He has no immunity and wants me to pay for the competition myself. How can I still call him a professional athlete?"
But this is still okay for people whose endorsement income is relatively small, mainly from bonuses.
Submitting money to participate in the competition is only a small part. The most important thing is that Su Shen wants to send money to the government of Kitty Hawk, so forget it.
I would rather turn around and donate to my own foundation, which is much better than here.
And a few games missing will not affect Su Shen's overall situation at all.
After all, as long as he defends Paris and the final, that's enough. He has a big enough lead now, and with so many consecutive games, he has to let himself analyze and digest a lot of things again. He is not the kind of simple athlete who just follows the coach. He is a scientific athlete, so he must use his own brain to run.
That's the difference.
Su Shen and Bolt did not participate, but Gay and Powell had no choice but to participate this time. After all, they still want to fight for the championship. Bolt doesn't care about the championship, they still want to fight. Therefore, at the Gateshead Station of the Diamond League, the two began to compete head-on. Although Su Shen and Bolt were missing, it was a bit less interesting, but these two are also today's sprint cards, and they are still worth watching.
"The men's 100 meters is the biggest hot spot at Gateshead Station. Guy and Powell competed together. They each won the first place in their group in the preliminaries. After the gun fired in the final, Guy started quickly. His reaction time was only 0.126 seconds, slightly The fast start did not disrupt the rhythm of his race, but Powell was also unequivocal. He held on to Guy tightly, and the two of them sprinted side by side toward the finish line. The atmosphere in the field reached a fever pitch. Guy felt better in the final sprint. , he crossed the line first in 9.94 seconds! Powell was the runner-up in 9.96 seconds, Lao Yi was third in 10.10 seconds, Zhang Peimeng was fourth in 10.14 seconds, and Antigua and Barbuda player Bailey was fifth in 10.15 seconds. .Because this game has a big headwind of nearly 2 meters, the results are not particularly good. Except for Guy and Powell, even Zhao Haohuan is a bit choked by the big headwind. At least he has to go all out to break easily. "
However, Zhao Haohuan did not participate in this competition. He also chose to rest his body at this stop. The continuous battles required him to adjust his condition.
After all, his physical condition is not as "tough" as Su Shen and others.
Paying attention is a good thing, getting injured is a delay.
“There were no world-class athletes participating in the men’s 110-meter hurdles. Thomas, the Jamaican athlete who was disqualified due to a false start at the Lausanne station two days ago, made up for his regret. He won the championship in 13.38 seconds, and Britain’s top player Turner finished in 13 seconds. 41 and won the runner-up. There were no surprises in the men's 200 meters. Although Dix and Spearmon were also top-notch experts, their performance was average. Dix won the championship in 20 seconds 26, and Spearmon only ran 20 seconds 29. Runner-up. Jamaican player Chambers won the men's 400m championship in 44.98 seconds, Kenyan player Kiprop won the men's 1500m championship in 3 minutes, 33.34 seconds, and Kenyan player Chuumba broke the competition record in 8 minutes, 19.72 seconds. Winning the 3,000-meter hurdles championship.”
"Except for the men's triple jump, which was participated by local master Edowu, there were only four opportunities for the throwing and jumping events at this station, which led to many favorites feeling that they were not found and the game was over. Edowu was in the third level He performed normally in the long jump competition. He won the championship with 17.38 meters. Grenada's Lewis won the runner-up with 17.29 meters. The Cuban Copero, who is the most powerful to compete with Edowu, finished third with 17.09 meters. The men's long jump competition was in There were only four rounds of long jump competition. Australian player Laperre, who failed in the first two jumps, seized the last two opportunities. He came from behind to win the championship with a fourth jump of 8.20 meters. Panamanian star Saladino only jumped 7 meters. 96, finishing third. Sweden's Thornblad won the men's high jump championship with 2.29 meters. Poland's Malachowski won the men's discus championship with 69.83 meters. This result broke the competition record and created a new Polish record. It is a national record that our players were eliminated in the first round and were eliminated in the first round.”
"In the women's 100 meters, the Jamaican double Campbell Brown did not come, and Fraser has been suspended. The American athlete Jeter is naturally invincible and has no opponent. She won the championship in 10 seconds 95, and her diamond points reached 13 points. She is already the winner. To overtake Chen Juan, Baptiste of Trinidad and Tobago won the runner-up in 11.00 seconds, Simpson of Jamaica finished third in 11.02 seconds, and Chen Juan finished third in 11.03 seconds. In addition, In the women's event, American player Lolo Jones won the women's 100-meter hurdles championship in 12.79 seconds, and American player Knight won the women's 200-meter championship in 22.71 seconds. Lausanne station women's 400-meter champion, American player Dunn's grand promises fell through. She won the runner-up in 50.66 seconds for the first time, and Shay Williams of Jamaica won the 400-meter championship in 50.44 seconds. Johnson of the United States won the women's 800-meter championship in 1 minute, 59.84 seconds, and Spencer of Jamaica won the women's championship in 54.10 seconds. 400-meter hurdles champion.”
After Chen Juan's strong performance of 11 seconds in Lausanne, she is obviously still consolidating and making adjustments. The results are still good, and now she can basically stabilize at a score just outside 11 seconds.
Her team's plan for her is to adjust her condition and hit a PB to open 11 in this year's Brussels finals.
After Gay defeated Powell, he said that he has gradually entered a good situation this year, and he will definitely go all out in this year's finals.
Kill everyone.
Powell was a little depressed. This shot was against the wind. If Guy's start was not too much higher than usual, which made him think for a moment that he did not run well and was a little distracted, otherwise he would still have a great advantage with this shot. That's right.
But if he loses, he loses. He can only admit defeat and promise to get it back next time.
And the next stop, Paris, will basically start gathering.
…
Paris, July 12 (News) Bolt said at a press conference at the Diamond League Paris leg on Monday that although he has only recovered 80%, the goal of the Paris race is to open 9.70s.
"At present, I have recovered 80%. It will take 2-3 weeks to fully recover."
"The goal on Friday is very clear, which is not to lose the game. My condition is coming back and I will try to run 9.70 seconds. That will be a good game."
"This is my first time playing against Powell this year. It will be very interesting. He is in good form at the moment. I am looking forward to this game. I don't want to be defeated."
Of course, this is not the most exciting news. The most exciting news is still...
Christopher LeMaitrie knocked on the door of Ten Seconds yesterday!
Christopher Lemaitrie ran 9.98 seconds in the men's 100m final of the European Athletics Championships, becoming the first white athlete to break the 10-second mark in the men's 100m event, and setting a new record for the French 100m. National record!
In these three shots, he ran 10.15s in the preliminaries, 10.05s in the semifinals, and 9.98s in the finals. In an instant, you know, the white people almost lifted the skulls of the Internet.
All kinds of hype have ignited feelings all over the world.
"White People Can Fly, Too!" We can do it too! 》
"Who says we can't do it?" Breaking ten, we can do it! 》
"Su predicted that we may not be able to open the 9.90s in 2023. Christopher Lemaitrie, who is not yet 20 years old, has proved that Su's prediction is likely to be shattered!" 》
"Christopher LeMaitrie!" Our white sprinting god! 》
You have to know that although black people cannot be discriminated against, white people actually feel that they are the noblest than anyone else. This is an invisible conceit. In fact, American society is still a society dominated by white high-level people, and the entire society is still controlled by white gentlemen. Core operation. No, finally the white people came to Christopher Lemaitrie. Suddenly, everyone in Omi went crazy. They just had to give Christopher Lemaitrie an advance loan of 9.90s, 9.80s, or even 9.70s!
Paper after paper began to be written, saying that if the yellow race can do it, so can we.
Even if this is when we begin to show our potential, white people will surely transcend the past again.
Anyway, Su Shen didn't have to answer these people. Zhao Haohuan and even Lao Yi stood up and said: "If it weren't for this strong wind, Christopher Lemaitrie might not be able to break through. And even if he breaks through, he wants to fight with Su." You have to ask yourself first."
“It’s not really fast unless it’s fast in the strong wind.”
But now, the white media, which has been suppressed for so many years, is almost going crazy. It is hard to seize an opportunity to vent. How can I have time to listen to you say this here?
A crazy Christopher LeMaitrie craze spread among the white people, making Christopher LeMaitrie himself look uncomfortable. Because at this moment, he felt that the pressure on his shoulders was too much.
Almost all white people are now looking at him, hoping that he can break through.
This caused a young man to be praised as a "savior" just after he came up. If it hadn't been reopened, it would have been really unbearable.
Anyway, all this depends on whether Christopher LeMaitrie can ask for his own blessings.
Being too famous and exceeding one's strength is sometimes not necessarily a good thing.
…
According to news on July 13, Robles, the second-best player in the world in the Cuban men's 110-meter hurdles, announced on Tuesday that he would withdraw from this Friday's Paris Diamond League due to leg soreness after last week's Lausanne Diamond League.
According to Robles' agent, Robles is currently training in Spain. If he recovers in time, he will participate in the Diamond League held in Monaco on July 22. The agent said Robles will return to Cuba at the end of this month, and then go to London to participate in a game on August 14, followed by another game in Zurich five days later.
Su Shen did not participate in this game because Gay did not participate in the game when he returned to China. His points advantage is enough. At the moment, he is still digesting the details of these Diamond League games. Since Gay does not want to play, then forget it, Bo The firepower of Walter and Powell cannot keep up with him.
He can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Because there are no men's 200 meters and women's 100 meters events at the Paris Station, basically everyone is taking a rest.
Only Zhao Haohuan came back to participate. He wanted to try digestion in the past few days to see the effect of the temporary changes.
Finally, at 4 a.m. on July 17th, Beijing time, the match was decided.
Before the start of the game, Bolt looked very relaxed and even had time to chat and laugh with French athlete Christophe Lemaitrie, while Christopher Lemaitrie looked nervous when facing Bolt. He knew he was still far from it. Bolt was wearing a purple jersey with the Eiffel Tower printed on it today. When the host introduced him, Bolt turned around and showed the Eiffel Tower pattern on the jersey. At the same time, Powell also wore the Eiffel Tower pattern on both sides of his arms. A kiss on the muscle. Zhao Haohuan also blew on his hands to let his good luck flow from his hands to his toes.
Bang————————————
Powell performed very well in the competition. In the first fifty meters, he had already left Bolt far behind, but in the final sprint, Bolt was still unmatched, especially when he entered In the second half of the sprint, Black Lightning's advantage was fully revealed. Powell's advantage became smaller and smaller. Bolt had already opened up a distance from Powell at 60 meters, and there were still 5 seconds left before the finish line. When he reached 100 meters, Bolt slowed down and then turned to look at Powell. In the end, he won the championship with a score of 9.84, Powell ranked second with a score of 9.91, and Blake of Jamaica ranked third with a score of 9.95. Zhao Haohuan did not run very well in this shot, with a small headwind of 9.96s. It seems that he himself has discovered the imaginary adjustment, but it seems that it is not easy to use in actual combat.
This is normal. Many things require constant experimentation and trial and error to get the best results.
At this level, to be honest, he really has to rely on himself for many things.
Fortunately, Zhao Haohuan was not discouraged. He just turned around and said something to Randy, as if he wanted to confirm his running trajectory and other issues after the game.
France's Christopher Lemaitrie, although he had just broken 10 seconds two days ago, seemed a little absent-minded this time. He ranked seventh with a time of 10.09. Lost to Lao Yi’s 10 seconds and Zhang Peimeng’s 10.04 seconds.
This wave has also cooled down the "Christopher Lemaitrie fever" a bit.
After all, before the game started, many of them were clamoring that Christopher Lemaitrie would open 9.95 seconds this time, kill Lao Yi, and catch up to Zhao Haohuan, the yellow man in second place. But the reality is cruel. Even Zhang Peimeng has never run away. Of course it is not a matter of strength. Now his strength is not worse than Zhang Peimeng. It's just that the external pressure in the past few days has put too much pressure on Christopher Lematri, a child who is not yet 20 years old, causing him to have a somewhat unbalanced mentality.
Obviously, he almost made a mistake in pressing the line, which is his unique skill.
After the reaction time of this game is released, we can see that Bolt’s reaction time is 0.170 seconds, and Powell’s is 0.154 seconds. Even though he is so far behind, he can easily counterattack. Bolt is indeed starting to slow down. Backflow. Although he did not fulfill his pre-match promise of opening 9.70s, he was too far ahead in the end, and letting it go was enough to prove that even if he let go in this small headwind, he could still almost open 9.80s.
At the same time, Bolt's result also broke the competition record of 9.85 seconds set by Powell in 2006.
I'm very happy with my performance," Bolt said after the game, "but it's not the best of my career. My strength lies in the last 50 meters, but it didn't fully show today. I'm still a little weak and need to strengthen my strength training."
When asked if he was still invincible if he took it seriously, Bolt said to the TV camera: "Unfortunately, that's it. As long as I take it completely seriously, no one can beat me."
Then he made a "lightning pointing to the sky" towards the camera, which won the audience's applause.
However, this fell into the eyes of Su Shen and Guy, and the latter responded directly————
"He might have been invincible last year and the year before, but not this year."
“I lost to me this year and I lost to Sue.”
"And he will continue to lose later. I will definitely run faster in this game."
"As for being invincible, I think it must be at least undefeated. And this season, the 'invincible' I think should be Su, not Usain Bolt."
Su Shen:......
Please, is it really okay for you to say this about me?
I can tell you the fact that I ranked first in points, but it turned out that it was better for you to just put "invincible" on me.
Some of these people are so angry that they want to take advantage of me.
This guy Gai Lao is really a "praise", a pure "praise".
Sure enough, a certain blogger was immediately fooled and made a comment:
"Give me a few weeks to adjust and I'll be in the back, beating the hell out of you guys."
"Including Sue!"
"Just like I've been doing for the last few years."
Su Shen:......
A certain blogger, you are too naive, and you two are vindictive, so don’t use me as a weapon.
Sighed.
Now that everything has been pushed to the forefront, Su Shen could only say to the media with a blank face: "Since you have made the matter so arrogant, what else can I say."
"I want the championship too. If you want the first place in the season, come and get it."
"This season, my goal is to win the championship."
"I'm not afraid of anyone either."
No, the media would be happy.
Happy.
All three parties have spoken. Isn’t this the best rendering material?
The Diamond League that will follow is probably going to be fierce, so we have to go to the next level to be worthy of the audience.
PS: Please vote~~~~~~~~hehehe~~~~~~~~~~~~~
