Almost at the same time that Zhang Guan stood up from the sand pool, the referee raised the white flag to indicate that this score was valid.
"Another eight-meter line passed!" someone immediately exclaimed.
Judging from the traces in the sand pool, Zhang Guan's jump has clearly crossed the eight-meter line, and his performance in this jump must be better than that in the qualifying round. This is also true. After measurement, the referee gave a score of 8.12 meters.
There was a burst of applause mixed with exclamations from the scene. 8. This time of 12 seconds can win the championship even in some Asian competitions. And this championship-level result actually appeared on the athlete's first jump!
There is no doubt that this result will definitely enter the top eight, and it is very likely to be the best result today. Those athletes who are still lingering outside the top eight are becoming more and more nervous.
Perhaps influenced by Zhang Guan's eight-meter jump, the last two athletes to appear chose to use more radical jumping methods, and both failed to commit fouls. Then in the second round, Zhang Xin and Gu Junjie were also sentenced to fouls one after another. Li Dalong, who played later, still performed poorly. He only jumped 0.06 meters more than the first jump, and his score was 7.48 meters, still not breaking through 7.5 meters.
Li Run, the favorite to win the championship, jumped 7.94 meters in the first trial, and there was no problem in advancing to the top eight. Zhang Guan's score of 8.12 meters deeply stimulated him, and he decided to challenge the limit, but he was extremely aggressive. However, his unique jumping method did not bring much improvement to his performance. His score of 7.95 meters was still blocked from the 8-meter mark.
The more experienced Zhou Can performed well in the second jump, jumping to 7.88 meters. This result can also ensure that he enters the top eight.
In the second jump, Zhang Guan wanted to try an unrestrained jumping method, but failed to control his balance after taking off, and ultimately made a mistake in the trial jump.
The so-called jump error does not mean that there is no result, but due to technical or body control reasons, the entire long jump action is not completed, and sometimes even falls in the sand pool. As long as there is no foul, the result is still counted as valid, so this Zhang Guan's effective score in one jump is only 5.20 meters.
In the next third round of trial jumps, Zhang Xin was still sentenced to a foul, but his good start in the first jump had already put him in the top eight; then Gu Junjie fought with his back against the wall and finally jumped out with a score of 7.65 meters. This result He happened to be in the top eight. Li Dalong performed well at the back and jumped 7.91 meters, ranking third after Zhang Guan and Li Run.
Li Run was still trying an aggressive jump, but ended up fouling when he stepped on the line. Then Zhou Can only jumped 7.60 meters, obviously adjusting his condition. Zhang Guan did not try the so-called unrestrained jumping method in his third trial jump. He completed the long jump in a satisfactory manner. When his feet landed, he just pressed on the 8-meter line. After measurement, the result was exactly 8 meters.
This result once again caused a lot of discussion on the scene. He jumped over the eight-meter mark in succession, which obviously shows that Zhang Guan's long jump ability is very strong. Obviously no one in the country can do this. Athletes who can continuously and relatively stably jump above 8 meters usually have their best results at 8.5 meters, and in Asia, no one can jump to 8.5 meters yet.
"Including the qualifying rounds, Zhang Guan's three recorded results are all above eight meters. Today, he jumped the eight-meter mark twice. This is no more than the Olympic finalists!"
"Talent is great. Do you think it is possible for Zhang Guan to break a world record in the long jump in the future?"
"I'm afraid this is more difficult. The world record of 8.95 meters is really abnormal, but I think it is possible to break the Asian record."
"Judging from this situation, today's champion must be Zhang Guan."
"This is not necessarily true. The long jump is the best result. There are still three jumps. It is impossible for any of the other athletes to achieve a very good result."
"I think it will be difficult for Zhang Guan to win the championship. After all, it is his first time to participate in the long jump competition. His lack of experience is his biggest shortcoming. The later jumps in this competition, the more support he needs from competition experience."
There are those who are optimistic about Zhang Guan, and of course there are those who are not optimistic about Zhang Guan. Everyone has their own reasons, and they all sound reasonable and well-founded. The final result needs to be tested in the following games.
…
After three rounds of skipping, four contestants were eliminated, and then the fourth round of trial jumps began again.
From the fourth round onwards, the eight finalists will appear in reverse order of the personal best scores of the previous three jumps. The one with the lowest score will appear first, and Zhang Guan, as the one with the highest score, will compete in the finals. The last one to appear. ,
The pace of the game is still fast, but it is more tense and exciting than before. After three rounds of trial jumps, the four athletes with poorer skills have been eliminated. The remaining eight are all strong players. More importantly, the first three trial jumps have warmed up the athletes' bodies, even if they are slow-heaters. The athletes have also found their own competition status, so they are likely to achieve very good results in the future.
Gu Junjie, who ranked eighth, seemed to have found his form in this jump. His score of 7.86 meters was much better than his previous jump. Zhang Xin, who appeared shortly after, also jumped 7.86 meters, and the two had the same result.
After several athletes jumped, it was Zhou Can's turn to appear. He took a deep breath and started to run. Then he took off, jumped into the air, and landed. The movements were all done in one go, which was perfect. The landing place of his feet was also eight meters away, and it looked like It has reached far more than 8.1 meters.
The referee raised the flag to indicate that there was no foul, and then the measurer measured Zhou Can's jump score.
"8 meters 14!" the surveyor shouted.
"What?" This result surprised everyone. Any result over 8 meters is hard-won, and the result of 8.14 meters is already considered the top level result in the country. More importantly, this result is still hard-won. It surpassed Zhang Guan’s 8.12 meters.
However, while everyone was still discussing Zhou Can's good result of 8.14 seconds, Li Dalong, who came on next, made another result that surprised everyone even more - 8.17 meters!
Li Dalong walked out of the sand pool, looked back at where he landed, and laughed with great satisfaction. Then he announced the score of 8.17 meters, which made Li Dalong raise his arms high and begin to celebrate his victory.
There are very few domestic athletes who can jump 8.17 meters. The best result of Li Dalong, the champion of the Ninth National Games that year, was only 8.22 meters. The 8.17 meters just now was already his best result this year. This was his best result, and he felt that this result was enough for him to win the championship.
The second to last person to appear was Li Run. The first two players both jumped over 8.1 meters, which surprised Li Run, but after all, he was an athlete who had participated in international competitions. At this moment, he thought of those foreign players in international competitions who easily jumped over the eight-meter mark. situation.
"Since you can jump 8.1 meters, then I can definitely do it too!" Li Run took a deep breath, started to run, and then took off and flew into the air.
"So high!" This time, Li Run's take-off height was perfect. It can be predicted that this will be a very good result.
After taking off, Li Run, who was flying in the air, also realized that his performance in this jump must be very good.
"This jump must be over eight meters. Maybe I can beat the best score!" Li Run immediately dismissed the distracting thoughts, then concentrated on making a flying movement, and then landed. Then he stood up, and when he walked out of the sand pool, he looked back at where he landed. He found that he was on the 8.20-meter line, and he immediately celebrated happily.
8. At exactly 20 meters, defending champion Li Run completed a perfect jump!
The coaches on the sidelines took a breath of air-conditioning. They were deeply shocked by the result of 8.20 meters. This is the best long jump result in the country today.
Moreover, each of the three athletes who had just appeared jumped better than the other, and every result was usually a championship-level result, but today they all appeared together. This situation is very rare to encounter.
"Four athletes all jumped 8.10 meters. This is probably the highest level long jump competition in China in recent years!" Coach Zhou thought while looking at Zhang Guan who was on the stage.
"Zhang Guan, you fell to fourth place in the blink of an eye, especially Li Run's 8.20-meter result, which is already the best long jump result in the country this year. Can you still surpass him?"
On the rostrum, Director Ma had already stood up. He knew that Zhang Guan often jumped over 8 meters in training on weekdays, and he had also jumped over 8.1 meters several times, but Zhang Guan had never jumped. He had reached 8.20 meters, and just now Li Run's strength exploded. His score of 8.2 meters was equivalent to pushing Zhang Guan to the cliff.
However, Zhang Guan was not nervous. Instead, he felt very stimulated and his body began to get excited.
"It's 8.20 meters. Li Run jumps really well. He is indeed the strongest long jumper in the country now. I have to try my best and try to break the record." Zhang Guan thought as he used Status potion to improve your status.
Then, Zhang Guan started to take a run-up. Just like the previous times, his speed was extraordinary. Then, he took off and jumped into the air, with the height still perfect.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Guan, and everyone was looking forward to what kind of results Zhang Guan could perform. And those sports professionals, whether they were coaches or athletes, had their hearts in their throats because they discovered that Zhang Guan was like this. He did a very good job in the air, even better than when he jumped 8.12 meters before. It can be expected that Zhang Guan's performance this time will definitely be improved than before.
How much progress will it make? Can you surpass Li Run? The answer was revealed instantly when Zhang Guan landed.
"Plop..." Zhang Guan fell into the sand pool.
"Wow!" Immediately afterwards, there were exclamations from the whole audience.
Whether this jump can exceed 8.20 meters, the traces in the sand pool have already given the answer.
But the edge of the trace is not around 8.20 meters, but has exceeded 8.40 meters!
The referee raised the white flag, there was no foul, and the result of this jump is valid!
The surveyor half-opened his mouth and stared at the traces in the sand pit with wide eyes. It wasn't until several seconds later that he remembered to measure, and then he announced Zhang Guan's result of the jump with excitement on his face.
"8 meters 42! 8 meters 42! 8 meters 42!" the surveyor shouted three times.
Although important things need to be said three times, at this time, even if he didn't have to say it three times, everyone knew that it was a very important thing.
"Wind strength? Please report the wind strength!" Someone immediately couldn't help but look at the mouth and shouted.
"Minus 0.1 meter!" The referee looked at the data carefully and said.
"No super wind speed, valid record! New long jump national record!"
