Tim Montgomery, an American sprinter, broke the world record for men’s 100-meter sprint with a score of 9.78 seconds in 2002, that is to say, he was the holder of the 100-meter sprint world record before Zhang Guan, and can be regarded as Zhang Guan’s predecessor . It was only in 2003 that he was caught in a ban on drugs and was subsequently punished by a ban.
Perhaps it was because Montgomery hadn’t come out in a long time, and Zhang Guan had forgotten about this person. He asked: "How did Montgomery come? Isn’t he still in suspension?"
"Montgomery's suspension period has just passed, which is also thanks to Gatling." Director Ma said.
"Is he like Gatling, taking medicine to treat mental illness?" Zhang Guan said with a smile.
Director Ma shook his head: "Last month, Gatlin submitted his first application for commutation to the IAAF. He provided a urine test and blood test report for half a year, proving that he did not take stimulants these days. , The IAAF Anti-Doping Committee agreed to give Gatling to reduce the suspension penalty for a certain period of time. With this precedent, Montgomery also submitted a test report and application according to the gourd, and his suspension period would have been left Not much, so I straightened out the two-year suspension." Director Ma looked at the window and thought for a while, then said: "It's not just Montgomery who came out, but Marion Jones, the female trapeze, is coming back."
"The track and field community in the United States has been very lively recently." Zhang Guan could not help sighing.
"It's quite lively. There were nine people participating in this competition, including Montgomery who got out of the wild card this time. Although he hasn't participated in the competition for two years. As an opponent, don't take it lightly. After all, Montgomery is your previous world record. Holder, no one knows what his current level is. But the foundation of the year is definitely still there. The situation where the athlete does not decline and rise after the return is not impossible." Director Ma thought for a while and then said: "And Sean Crawford, who changed his coach last May, and has been in a state of ups and downs since then, but in several domestic competitions this year, Crawford has performed very well."
"The coach who changed in May last year? Because of doping?" Zhang Guan asked.
Director Ma nodded: "Although Crawford has not been found to be using stimulants. But his coach has problems. The name of Crawford's coach is Graham and he has a nickname in the United States-Medicine King. !"
"Drug King? This nickname domineering, it seems to be a master of doping." Zhang Guan said.
"No one expected that the impact of the doping scandal last year would be so great, involving so many track and field athletes. It may even affect the pattern of the next Olympics. Okay, rest well, I will go first." Ma The director turned to leave.
"I'll send you." Zhang Guan followed and Director Ma returned.
Just listen to Director Ma said: "There is one more thing, I forgot to say. If you run for the 400-meter sprint, you can fight for the results. It doesn't matter if you can't get the results. Don't put too much pressure on yourself.
"Have you heard anything again?" Zhang Guan asked.
Director Ma hesitated, and finally said: "Not long ago, Jeremy Varina ran out of 44 seconds and 12 seconds, which is also the best record of the 400-meter project this year!"
"44 seconds 12?" Zhang Guan really felt a little nervous this time, and Zhang Guan also knows that Varina's limit is definitely not here. If Varina runs within 44 seconds, Zhang Guan will definitely not You will feel unexpected.
...
"This year's IAAF Golden League is about to kick off in Oslo, Norway. The biggest suspense in the Golden League is naturally the attribution of the final million gold award. And each of the competitions in the station is also full of attention. Then this year's gold What is the biggest thing about the Oslo League match! Let me reveal to everyone!" The host hung a professional smile and reached out to guide everyone to the big screen beside him.
A picture of Zhang Guan appeared on the big screen, and the host continued: "Zhang Guan! I think many viewers in front of the TV know him! The world record holder of the men’s 100-meter sprint, the Olympic champion, he broke three times last year He won the world record for the men’s 100-meter sprint event. He won six million games in the Golden League and won the Million Grand Prize, and won the Lawrence Best Male Athlete Award not long ago. In this Golden League, he not only keeps the previous world record Montgomery contested, but also faced a series of powerful opponents such as Powell, Crawford and other challenges, but these are not the key......"
"The key thing I want to say is that Zhang Guan not only has to participate in the men’s 100-meter sprint, but also the men’s 400-meter sprint! You audience, you heard it right, he also participated in two events in the track and field gold league. And before that, no athlete has ever participated in two events in the same Golden League! Let’s not discuss Zhang Guan’s strength in the 400-meter sprint. As long as Zhang Guan can play smoothly, he will make history Athletes who participated in two events in the first Golden League!"
For many viewers, Montgomery's comeback may not be too attractive, after all, he has been away from the game for too long. But Zhang Guan's participation in the 400-meter sprint race attracted global attention. Zhang Guan’s achievements created last year are really dazzling. Zhang Guan at this time is definitely the most famous track and field athlete in the world. His every move is naturally attracting much attention.
Zhang Guan has ruled the men's 100-meter sprint. Many people are also expecting Zhang Guan to rule the 400-meter sprint, but those with common sports knowledge have expressed that they are not optimistic about Zhang Guan. The difference between a 100-meter dash and a 400-meter dash is too great. From a professional point of view, these two projects can be regarded as two completely different projects. Many people feel that Zhang Guan is afraid of participating in the 400-meter section, which is probably the level of playing soy sauce, maybe just to brush the achievement of "at the same time participating in two competitions in the Golden League".
What's more, in the 400-meter sprint event, there is an insurmountable Jay Mountain-Rimi Varina!
...
Coach Hart pushed the notebook to Varina, and then started playing the video stored in the notebook.
"That contestant is Zhang Guan? What kind of competition is this?" Varina asked.
"The East Asian Games 400m race. I just got it from other coaches. That was November last year, Zhang Guan participated in the 400m sprint for the first time." Hart said.
"From a technical point of view, Zhang Guan's technology at that time was not as good as the indoor track and field championships of this year." Varina stared at the computer screen carefully, and then said: "But his speed is faster than that of the indoor track and field championships. some."
"Yes. He ran faster at the time, and the final score was 44.50 seconds." With Hart's voice falling, Zhang Guan in the computer screen also crossed the finish line, and the time was fixed at 44.50 seconds.
Varina frowned for more than a minute, and then said: "I think Zhang Guan's speed is likely to be faster. If he runs this way, he may eventually reach about 44.30 seconds."
"Yes, as I expected, it is absolutely possible to increase the speed by 0.2 seconds if he runs at the limit." Hart patted Varina's shoulder: "Jeremy, you were a little bit before Underestimate Zhang Guan, if he really runs to 44.30 seconds. It can definitely threaten you."
"I know, I will take the game seriously." Varina took a deep breath, and then said: "Tomorrow's game, I will seriously run! I will not lose to Zhang Guan."
...
On June 2, the Oslo station of the IAAF Golden League officially started.
The 100-meter trapeze battle took place in the morning, while the 400-meter sprint race was scheduled in the afternoon.
But the schedule is still very unfavorable to Zhang Guan, although the 100-meter sprint race is in the morning. But the start time has reached 11:30, which is the finale of the entire morning game. If you encounter the previous few games, it may be postponed; and the 400-meter sprint race is the first held on the runway in the afternoon. For this event, the time is 13:00, which means that Zhang Guan has only one and a half hours between the two games.
For any athlete in the world, playing two games in such a short time is a severe test for physical strength, but it does not matter to Zhang Guan. He has a physical recovery potion, he can ignore the problem of physical exertion. However, before the game, Zhang Guan still increased his state and physical strength to more than 95.
"This year Powell started the pinnacle of his professional career. He must be more difficult to deal with than last year. If he is taken lightly, he may really lose to him; and that Montgomery, the former world record holder, now he It’s really hard to say how strong his strength is. If he is stronger than he was then, it’s definitely a big threat to me. Let’s fill up the state first!
Zhang Guan took a deep breath, lion fights rabbit, don’t ever Take it lightly, he has decided that this gun will run towards the goal of the new world record.
Beside Zhang Guan, Powell's expression was slightly dignified.
After recovering from injury, Powell has just found the state of competition among the Commonwealth athletes not long ago. As a challenger, he will once again challenge Zhang Guan. Powell has no expectations of the final million prize in the Golden League. He gave I set a goal that is not high, as long as I can win Zhang Guan once this year. But what surprised Powell was that Montgomery came back.
Powell began to participate in the world track and field competition in 2003. At that time, Montgomery had been caught in a drug scandal, so Powell had no experience with Montgomery, and he could not understand the truth of Montgomery.
Montgomery is not tall, only one meter six or eight, and has a baby face. This is thirty years old. He looks like Zhang Guan's peers. At this time, Montgomery seemed to be very relaxed, and did not return to the restraint and tension of the first time to participate in the international competition.
But in fact, Montgomery's heart has long been unable to bear the excitement.
"I'm finally back on the field! Things are right and wrong, now I'm strangers on both sides! But fortunately, the Chinese named Zhang Guan is also there." Montgomery stood on the starting blocks with both feet and bowed Get down.
"The former world record holder came back and defeated the current world record holder. This is a perfect script!" Montgomery took a deep breath and prepared the starting position: "This game will announce to the world that I have Back to the top!" (To be continued.)
