The name of Gatlin appeared on the list of participants!
In addition to Gatlin, Sean Crawford also appeared in the 100-meter list, and another player of the American team to participate in the 100-meter name is Leonard Scott.
"Gatling? Why is he here?" Zhang Guan asked. The cause of the outbreak of the doping scandal in the United States was that Gatling was found to be using illegal drugs, and Gatling also missed all competitions after the IAAF Osaka Grand Prix, although the final IAAF penalty has not yet come out. But Gatling now must be in trouble.
"Are you surprised, right?" Director Ma continued: "Gatling has been found to use prohibited drugs before, so for this stimulant incident, Gatling's highest penalty is likely to be a lifetime ban, so he had He never admits that he has used stimulants. He even hired private investigators to investigate whether someone framed him. But recently he has cooperated with the IAAF Anti-Doping Committee."
"Is it found out?" Zhang Guan asked.
Director Ma nodded: "I found it out, but Gatling argued that he had ADHD since childhood, and he has always had mental problems, so he occasionally needs to take some psychoactive drugs, and the drugs contain some prohibited ingredients, so he only Will be detected as illegal drugs. And he also submitted to the IAAF Anti-Doping Committee medical certificate and doctor's prescription as evidence."
"Medical certificates and doctor's prescriptions, even if they are available now." Zhang Guan asked curiously: "The anti-doping committee adopted the evidence submitted by Gatling?"
"The people of the Anti-Doping Committee are not fools! But from the procedural point of view, since Gatling submitted the evidence. Then they will be reviewed." Director Ma thought for a while and then said: "Neither can the Anti-Doping Committee. It is proved that Gatling is fraudulent on the medical certificate, so according to the current situation, it is unlikely that the IAAF will give Gatling a lifetime ban. But they also cannot determine that Gatling is innocent and will most likely take a discount. The method in question is likely to give Gatling a penalty of five to ten years of suspension."
"It's so long! If it's better for five years, if it's ten years, it's almost a lifetime ban." Zhang Guan said.
Gatling was 23 years old this year, the golden age of sprinters. And if Gatling is 33 years old after ten years, for a sprinter, 33 years old can already retire.
"In fact, even if it is sentenced to a 10-year ban, it is impossible to be banned for a 10-year period. Gatlin can apply for a commutation during the suspension period. It only needs to be regularly tested for prohibited drugs. For drugs, you can apply to reduce the ban time. So if it is a 10-year ban, it may be lifted in six or seven years; if it is five years, it may be lifted in three years, and may even participate in the next session. Olympic Games." Director Ma said.
Zhang Guan thought about it and said immediately: "Then Gatlin definitely hopes that the final IAAF penalty will be as short as possible. So he came to participate in this World Athletics Championship? He wanted to prove before The stimulant is not taken for the purpose of improving performance, but really for the treatment of illness."
"Yes, it has been so long. It is believed that the illegal drugs in Gatling have been excreted with the metabolism. If he can make a good result in this case that is not inferior to the previous, he can send it to the world To convey a message, with his strength, he can run extremely fast without stimulants, so he really took the banned drugs in order to treat the disease. The anti-doping committee may also punish him lightly. Director Ma said.
"It's all scheming bitches!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.
Director Ma ignored the joke of Zhang Guan, but said with a hint of warning: "In competitive sports, even to the top level in the world. Not so clean. The results in competitive sports represent everything, so many Athletes or coaches can't help but temptation. Zhang Guan, you are still young and have unlimited potential in the future. In the face of right and wrong, you must hold on to yourself, and don't fall forever to hate."
Zhang Guan understood that Director Ma was doing good for himself, and immediately nodded: "Director Ma is assured that I will never touch stimulants in my life!"
...
The World Championships in Athletics were held at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium. This stadium was built in 1927. It used to be a stronghold for the Finns to resist Soviet attacks during World War II. It was still standing still after being hit by 16 Soviet aviation bombs. After the end of World War II, the 1952 Olympic Games was held. In addition, the first World Championships in Athletics were also held here, so it is a very old sports field in Europe.
On August 6, the tenth World Championships in Athletics began. On the day of the competition, the preliminary and rematch of the 100-meter sprint was held. Many of the preliminary and semi-finals are second- and third-rate athletes in the world, so Zhang Guan easily entered the next day's competition.
The next day's rematch, Zhang Guan is still very easy to advance, and the men's 100m final will be held that night.
American player Gatlin also successfully entered the finals, while the other two American players, Crawford, were eliminated in the rematch, and young American teenager Leonard Scott reached the finals.
Also in the finals were European champion Obik Viru, Jamaica’s Dwight Thomas and Michael Fretel, Ghana’s Aziz Ariza and a Nigerian athlete whom Zhang Guan did not know. In addition to American teenager Leonard Scott and the Nigerian player, Zhang Guan has played against other players.
...
Although Powell did not participate because of injury, he still came to the scene of the game and served as an official guest on the broadcast signal.
In fact, Powell has not returned to Jamaica these days, but has been rehabilitating in Germany. Germany’s sports rehabilitation level is the best in the world. Many American sports stars will choose to rehabilitate in Germany after injury. Powell naturally made the same choice. .
Nine out of ten Jamaicans will be very good at expressing themselves. The same is true for Powell. He is sitting in the commentary at the moment, as if he is talking on the side of the speech, and the commentator next to him is working hard to insert a sentence.
"Recently, Gatlin's condition seems very good. I remember he said in an interview before the game that his goal this time is 9.78 seconds. It seems that he is determined to win the championship!" The commentator said.
"I don't think Gatling is likely to run to less than 9.80 seconds. As for winning the championship, Gatling won't be able to win the championship as long as he wins, even if he runs 9.78 seconds." Powell immediately splashed cold water. come.
"Asafah, why do you think so?" the commentator asked.
"I know Zhang Guan. I have dealt with him many times, and even I can't beat Zhang Guan. How could Gatling win him!" Powell continued: "I predict that Zhang Guan will be around 60 meters. Will take the lead, and then keep the lead until the end."
The narrator nodded: "Indeed, Zhang Guan broke the world record twice last month. He is now in a very hot state, maybe he will set a world record today. Oh, the game is about to start, let us enter During the game."
...
Gatling on the track sneaked a glance at Zhang Guan who couldn't see far away. In order to reduce the number of years of suspension penalty, Gatling naturally hopes to run as fast as possible, if he can defeat the world record holder Zhang Guan. It couldn't be better.
With a gunshot, Gatling rushed out and quickly entered the game
Gatlin feels that he is in very good shape today. It is estimated that he can run a 9.85-second result. This result has a great chance of winning in any track and field competition.
"It’s in good shape today, just like last year’s Olympics. I have a chance to win the championship! First, I won a 100-meter sprint champion. Then I won a 200-meter sprint champion. The guy reduced the punishment to me. The five-year suspension is still too long. If it is a two-year suspension, it is much better. The best is not to use the suspension. Just monitor the observation period, and it can be longer!" There is even a feeling of beauty in Gatling's heart.
There is also a punishment under the ban, which is a certain period of observation. During the observation period, athletes must regularly receive a urine test or blood test, and they must regularly report their itinerary to the International Olympic Committee. Although this is troublesome and it also loses privacy, it is always stronger than the ban.
Thirty meters later, Gatling's speed advantage began to show, and the gap between athletes gradually became obvious.
After another 20 meters, the leading athlete finally became apparent. In addition to Gatlin, there were Zhang Guan, Obik Viru, and the Nigerian athlete.
Gatlin didn't care about Obike Viru and the Nigerian. He stared at Zhang Guan closely, and his goal was to defeat Zhang Guan.
At 70 meters, Gatlin and Zhang Guan are still running side by side, but Obik Viru and the Nigerian athlete have fallen behind. The game became a contest between Zhang Guan and Gatling again.
...
"Zhang Guan! Come on! Gatlin is also fast! They are on the same track! Zhang Guan! Zhang Guan! Come on... To be exceeded! To be exceeded! To be exceeded!" The commentator on the TV began to scream.
On the field, Zhang Guan is overtaking Gatling.
Zhang Guan was very calm in his mind at this time, and he even began to carefully analyze Gatling.
"Now Gatling's strength should be higher than Powell. Compared to Powell, Gatling's strength in the back fifty meters is more powerful. It is a pity that such an excellent athlete uses stimulants!" Zhang Guan felt a little sorry for Gatling, but the speed under his feet became faster.
In less than a second, the positions of Zhang Guan and Gatling had changed, and Zhang Guan had completely surpassed Gatling.
"The speed is faster! He can be faster!" Gatling's pupils set off Zhang Guan's figure, at this time he realized that Zhang Guan had not just tried his best to run.
"We already have such a big gap?" Gatling knew that this game, it is impossible for him to win!
Twenty meters from the finish line, Zhang Guan surpassed Gatlin, and for a 100-meter sprinter, the last 20 meters took less than two seconds! So after more than a second, Zhang Guan first crossed the finish line.
"Zhang Guan! Crossing the line! Champion! 9 seconds 80! Perfect! Perfect performance! Congratulations Zhang Guan. He won the men’s 100-meter sprint championship in the World Championships in Athletics! This is also the national team’s championship in the World Championships in Athletics. The first gold medal won is also the first medal!" The narrator looked down at the information already prepared in his hand, and then said: "Since the Chinese athletes first participated in the World Athletics Championships in 1983, a total of nine In this competition, our players won 7 gold medals. Today, Zhang Guan won the 8th gold medal in the world championships in history. It is also the first gold medal in the world championships since the 21st century!"
The broadcaster's footage was finally transferred to Gatling at this time, and he won the second place. The result was 9 seconds and 84, which was similar to his performance at the Athens Olympics. Although he failed to win the championship, it at least proves that he can reach the top level in the world without using doping.
And the third place is not the European champion Obikvilu, but the Nigerian athlete. His name is Orusoki-Fasuba. He surpassed Obikvilu in the final moment and won the third place. .
A few days later, in the men’s 200m game, Gatling defeated compatriots Sean Crawford and Tyson Gay and won a gold medal. Soon after, the IAAF also announced the penalty for Gatling and decided to give Gatling a five-year penalty.
...
On August 19, Zhang Guan and Liu Feiren appeared at the same time on the IAAF Golden League Zurich again. Zhang Guan added another gold medal, but Liu Feiren still failed to win the championship in the Golden League, only to obtain A runner-up.
After this campaign, Liu Feiren decided to abandon this year's IAAF Golden League game and began to concentrate on preparing for the Asian Athletics Championships.
Zhang Guan remained in Europe, preparing to participate in the last two races of the Golden League.
At the same time, in this gold league, the French female flying man Aron only ran fourth and withdrew from the million dollar general competition.
Zhang Guan then missed the IAAF Super Grand Prix at Sheffield. The super grand prize was only one day away from Zurich. The schedule was really too tight. Next, Zhang Guan also chose the Orly Grand Prix. Absent. He came to Brussels, Belgium early to prepare for the IAAF Golden League Brussels on August 26.
Since arriving a week early, Zhang Guan has plenty of time to familiarize himself with the local environment and restore his competitive status, so he easily won the Golden League Brussels Championship again. After the Brussels station, Zhang Guan has won five championships in the six races of the Golden League this year, which is only one step away from the million dollar gold prize. (To be continued.)
