Chapter 409 Return of the King (Third Watch)

Players locker room.

"Zhang Guan broke the national record for the triple jump!" Da Shi, who had just won the silver medal, said in surprise when he heard the news.

"What's so strange about this is the normal Zhang Guan." Liu Feiren smiled and continued: "National records, Asian records, and then world records, Zhang Guan's progress in every event is always the same. Today He broke the national record and the Asian record in the triple jump, and it is estimated that he will be able to break the world record by the time of the Olympics!"

"You are quite optimistic about Zhang Guan. Has his condition fully recovered?" Da Shi asked.

Liu Feiren shook his head: "I don't know. Based on what I know about him, domestic competitions obviously won't let him show his full strength. Zhang Guan likes to perform in big events, so I guess in the Olympics, He may break several world records! Or break his own world record."

"Break his own world record?" Da Shi shook his head in disbelief. He felt that it was difficult to break a world record in track and field.

...

On the rostrum, Director Ma held a form in his hand, which was the list of triple jumpers who had reached the Olympic A standard.

"I was still hesitating whether to let Zhang Guan participate in the Olympic triple jump competition, but now it seems that Zhang Guan must be given a place to participate in the competition, breaking the national record, and Zhang Guan has become the domestic triple jump. The person with the best performance in the event. And Li Yanxi, the player with the most stable triple jump performance in China, also has to occupy a spot."

Director Ma put a tick behind Zhang Guan's name, and then ticked Li Yanxi's name, which was regarded as two quotas.

"Zhong Minwei, Gu Junjie, Wu Bo, if there are no accidents, the remaining places will be selected from these three people. Zhong Minwei's 17.27 meters last year reached the standard, while Gu Junjie's best result was 17.23 meters, which was the standard. It's 17.11 meters, Wu Bo's best score is only 17.10 meters, Wu Bo probably doesn't need to think about it, let's take a look at Zhong Minwei and Gu Junjie's next performance!"

...

On the field, Gu Junjie had a serious face. He knew that his Olympic quota was very hanging. If Zhang Guan still only holds the original score of 17.15 meters, Gu Junjie can still overwhelm Zhang Guan with his personal best result, but now Zhang Guan has broken the national record and Asian record of the triple jump, which means participating in the competition. Of the three places in the Olympic Games, Zhang Guan has already occupied one.

"My best result and standard result are not as good as Zhong Minwei's. I must jump with better results!" Gu Junjie clenched his fists, and there are still two trials left, which will be his last chance.

Zhang Guan's record-breaking results have already secured the championship. Seeing that he won the championship, there is no suspense. In the fifth trial jump, the athletes put down their burdens and performed at a good level.

In the last trial jump, Gu Junjie was extremely focused and hardworking. The concentration and hard work also brought him rewards. He jumped out of a good result of 17.25 meters, and also set a new personal best result.

On the rostrum, Director Ma thought carefully for a moment, and marked the word "to be determined" after the names of Zhong Minwei and Gu Junjie.

"Gu Junjie seems to be in very good form recently, but Zhong Minwei's performance in today's game is average. If the two of them win, let's observe again!"

...

After the triple jump final, Zhang Guan also had no competitions on this day.

On May 25th, the track and field open training camp will be held. In addition to the last few gold medals in track and field events, there will also be related competitions for the Paralympic events, because the Paralympic Games after the Olympic Games will also be held here. On-site testing is also required.

In the morning competition, Zhang Guan had only one competition to participate in, and that was the men's 200m semi-final. Zhang Guanqingsong won the promotion.

In the afternoon session, the men’s 200m final was first held. In Asia, except for Zhang Guan, is there anyone else who can run the 200m within 20 seconds, so Zhang Guan ran 19.98 seconds and successfully won the champion.

And half an hour later, Zhang Guan will participate in his last event in this Open, the men's 800m final.

...

At the starting line, the domestic 800-meter champion Li Xiangyu looked dignified.

Li Xiangyu had achieved the Olympic B standard before, but Zhang Guan had reached the Olympic A standard. When an A standard and a B standard appeared at the same time, he would definitely choose the A standard player to participate, so from the moment Zhang Guan reached the Olympic A standard, Li Xiangyu has actually lost his qualification to participate in the Olympic Games.

If Li Xiangyu wants to continue competing, the only way is for him to also reach the Olympic A standard, but this is too difficult for him. The Olympic A standard of 1 minute and 46 seconds has never been achieved by any domestic player except Zhang Guan. It exceeded Li Xiangyu's personal best time of 1:46.45, so Li Xiangyu is not so much challenging the Olympic A standard as he is challenging himself.

Li Xiangyu also knew that this was a last stand, so after the gunfire started, he rushed to the front. Li Xiangyu was worried that if other players took the lead, the speed would be too slow and his result would be affected. He has already made plans to use all his strength, even if he is leading the race, he will rush all the way to the finish line.

Among the domestic 800-meter runners, Li Xiangyu is the strongest. For a relatively strong athlete, leading all the way to the finish line is also a way to achieve good results. Today, Li Xiangyu chose this way.

After one lap, several players could not keep up with Li Xiangyu's rhythm, and after another 200 meters, only Zhang Guan and another player named Xia Xiudong were left behind Li Xiangyu.

Li Xiangyu's strength is indeed a bit higher than that of other players. His endurance is very good. He led the way for 700 meters. After the last 100 meters, he still has the physical strength to exert strength in the sprint stage.

After Zhang Guan followed for 700 meters, he overtook Li Xiangyu in the last 100 meters and rushed to the first place. But it doesn't matter to Li Xiangyu anymore, he desperately wants to run a time of less than 1 minute and 46 seconds, reach the Olympic A standard, and go to the Olympics.

It is a pity that Li Xiangyu was still 0.2 seconds slower. His time of 1:46.20 was already his personal best, but he was still 0.2 seconds behind the Olympic A mark.

At the same time, Zhang Guan also won the men's 800m championship, which is his seventh gold medal in this track and field open!

One competition, seven gold medals, Zhang Guan's performance is perfect.

Zhang Guan is also announcing to the world in this way that the king of track and field is back!
