Although Zhang Guan has not participated in track and field competitions for a long time, in the 100-meter and 200-meter sprint events, Zhang Guan is still the biggest favorite to win the championship. The second odds are Jamaican Bolt.
In fact, Bolt has dominated almost 100 meters and 200 meters in the past two years. In the case of Zhang Guan not participating, Bolt is really a rare opponent. But even so, Bolt is still considered the second hottest title.
If it is other athletes who have not appeared on the track and field for two or three years, they will definitely be forgotten, and there will be almost no odds to win the championship, but Zhang Guan is different. As his world record holder, as long as it is him Before retiring, he must be the most notable player on the field.
Moreover, before the 2008 Olympic Games, Zhang Guan did not participate in track and field competitions for a year. As a result, at the Olympic Games, he broke world records one after another. With this precedent in mind, Bocai Company never dared to despise Zhang Guan when setting odds.
"I haven't seen it for a long time. Is Bolt now stronger than before? He had ran 100 meters, 9 seconds and 58 in 2009. He almost broke my world record, but recently In the year, there was no improvement in the results, it should have reached the limit. If I don’t participate in the 100m and 200m, I believe that the champion is Bolt!"
"For the 400-meter project, the US team seems to have fallen in recent years, but it is the rise of Central America and the Caribbean countries. Who is this Killarney James? I haven’t heard of it before, and the odds of winning the championship are second only to me, and Is American Merritt flat?"
Zhang Guan went online to check the information about Killarney James, only to find that this is a 19-year-old teenager from Grenada in the Caribbean.
"19 years old this year, 20 years old next year, so young! Last year's World Youth Championship, and can run within 44 seconds." Zhang Guan silently remembered this young teenager.
"Let's take a look at middle distance running again. There are a lot of names I don't know!" Zhang Guan glanced around. Igud of Monaco and Ali of Bahrain, although they are on the list, are no longer popular candidates for winning the championship. In Africa, Kenya, Ethiopia and Algeria, three middle- and long-distance runners, have emerged a group of powerful middle-distance runners.
"At that time, a large number of African track and field athletes were naturalized in the Middle East countries, and they did increase their strength in a short period of time. However, in the past two years, the pace of naturalized athletes in the Middle East countries has obviously slowed down a lot. Achievements have plummeted. It is not a long-term solution to dig up outstanding athletes by smashing money. The key is to improve the level of your own country and cultivate your own outstanding athletes."
Zhang Guan couldn’t help but think of Chinese football. Super League clubs were crazy to dig big-name stars and big-name coaches. Smashing hundreds of millions and hundreds of millions of dollars, the club’s performance was improved, but the cultivation of football reserve forces was one year. Not as good as a year. There are more and more tall buildings in the city, but fewer and fewer venues are available for activities. All the children's time is occupied by various cram schools, and even some grassroots sports schools have given up the training of football players.
Zhang Guan remembered that when he was in high school, he often played with his classmates after school. Many classmates would collect posters from Beckham or Ronaldo. For children more than a decade later, the most talked about is League of Legends. And those fresh Han stars.
Zhang Guan looked at the long-distance running again, and what surprised Zhang Guan was that the biggest favorites to win the championship were not Ethiopian players, Kenyan players, Algerian players, emerging Eritrean players and Uganda players, but an Englishman!
And 5000 meters and 10000 meters, the biggest favorite to win the championship is this British.
"Mo Farah, another king of long-distance running after Beckler!" Zhang Guan frowned.
Ethiopian player Beckler is known as the "king of the world's long-distance running." He is the Olympic record holder and world record holder for the 5,000-meter and 10,000-meter long-distance races. At the same time, in the track and field gold league, Becker also started from Zhang Guan Fly away part of the million dollar prize.
But now, Beckler is old, he is still difficult to resist the invasion of age, and succeeded Beckler to become the "king of the new world long-distance running", it is this British player, Mo-Farah.
Farah was born in Somalia. When he was 8 years old, he came to the United Kingdom as a refugee and became a British citizen. In the era when Beckler ruled the long-distance race, Farah can only be regarded as a world-class level, not reaching the top of the world. However, Farah was a late athlete. He began to make a splash in 2010 and broke the European records of 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters in a row. He defeated the athletes of African long-distance races one after another in the competition. The current IAAF world ranking is that Farah ranked first in the world at 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters.
Zhang Guan is very impressed with Farah. He remembers one game. Farah fell in the second half, he still insisted on the game after climbing up, and finally won the championship.
"If you remember correctly, at the London Olympics next year, the gold medals of the two long-distance races of 5000 meters and 10000 meters will belong to Farah!" Zhang Guan suddenly shook his head helplessly.
"Originally, I thought that I would not enter the long-distance running field in my life, but now it seems that I am really going to run long-distance running! If it was three years ago, I really dared not try it, and these three years In the past, my endurance was better than before, and I should be able to cope with long-distance races."
Zhang Guan at this time has made up his mind that he will enter the long-distance running project next year!
...
"5000 meters and 10000 meters are already two events. I can also participate in another track and field event. Long jump and triple jump are the strengths of the British team. Take a look at these two events. What are the UK? People hope to win the championship!" Zhang Guan found long jump and triple jump events.
In recent years, the level of international long jump events has been declining. In the two years Zhang Guan participated in the long jump, other athletes can jump more than 8.7 meters. In 2010, the best long jump in the world was only 8.47 meters. In the future, it will even drop below 8.4 meters.
The early batches of excellent athletes are no longer active. Now those long jumpers are active, so in Zhang Guan's view, they are all weak chickens. Jumping more than 8.1 meters, even if they are powerful, they can even get medals. You can win gold by jumping 8.2 meters. In the past few years, jumping 8.1 meters is to ensure that you can participate in the next three test jumps, 8.2 meters is only Zhang Guan's first three test jump results.
"British players Gray Rutherford and Chris Tomlinson are rising players in recent years. Rutherford’s odds for winning the championship are second only to me. Since that is the case, the last item in track and field is to choose Long jump!"
Zhang Guan's last project locked on triathlon. Triathlon is also regarded as the traditional advantage of the United Kingdom. In this project, the United Kingdom has the strength to take up three places. However, as a sports powerhouse like the United States, only two players in the triathlon are eligible to participate in the Olympic Games.
At the same time, there are two powerful players in the British team, Aristel Brownley and Johnny Brown, both of whom are famous triathlons, and both have the strength to get involved in the gold medal.
Now that he has decided to enter the long-distance running, and he will ride a road bike, he is only 1.5 kilometers away from the triathlon. Zhang Guan only needs to learn one or two long-distance swimming skills to deal with the triathlon. the match of.
So far, Zhang Guan has also determined all the events he will participate in the London Olympics. They are track and field 5000-meter long-distance running, 10000-meter long-distance running, long jump; road bike road race, individual time trial; field bike racing, Kailin race; boxing 91 kg or more; tennis men's singles; and triathlon.
