Chapter 145
On September 2, when Su Yu and other players returned to China, the national team's training for the World Championships was already in full swing.
In early August, a World Championships qualifier was held in China. Except for athletes like Su Yu who had already qualified for the World Championships and whose registered events had met the requirements, the rest of the domestic athletes gathered in L Province to participate in the qualifier.
Including the men's 200-meter sprint, Zhou Yuang also participated in the 200-meter individual trials with Gao Yansong and others - it can be said to be a top domestic competition where track and field athletes from all over the country gather together.
In this competition, several events successfully selected several athletes who qualified for the World Championships. After approval by the General Administration, these athletes were finally concentrated in several different training bases within the National Track and Field Team according to the needs of different events and carried out a month-long pre-World Championships training.
The national track and field team training base in City B is also the largest training site for the World Championships. Su Yu and his team's sprint training is conducted at this training site.
On the evening of the 2nd, since Su Yu and his team's plane landed late, everyone went straight back to their respective dormitories to rest, and did not officially report back to the national team training camp until the 3rd.
Zhou Yuang had previously won a good result of second place in the final of the domestic trials for the World Championships, and as a backup player for the relay team, he was also on the training list for this World Championships.
He was training at the moment, and when he saw Su Yu from a distance, he let out a roar.
"Su Xiaoyu, I miss you so much!"
Su Yu: “…”
Zhan Youming: "Pfft."
Zhan Youming looked at Zhou Yuang with amusement: "Aren't we training? Why are we acting in a skit?"
Zhou Yuang had just finished his training. After seeing Su Yu and the others coming back, his eyes were filled with tears. He wanted to complain to Su Yu about all the evil deeds that Pei Dingshan had done during this period.
Su Yu looked at him and blinked: "Coach, this is for your own good."
Zhou Yuang immediately put on a dog-like face - Okay, I know that you two have a deep master-disciple relationship, but I am the only one who was picked up from the trash can.
On the side, Zhan Youming watched Su Yu and Zhou Yuang's "live skit" and laughed happily. At the end, he looked at Zhou Yuang and said, "What's the matter? You don't want to train in China, so you want to go out and compete?"
"Or should I ask Coach Xiao Pei to give you the same 'brush match' package as Su Xiaoyu?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yuang's hair stood up immediately, and he retreated tactically on the spot: "No, no, my foundation is still too poor. I'll talk about brushing the game in two years."
It’s not that he doesn’t want to compete, but the competition plan that their coach made for Su Xiaoyu is too abnormal. Just looking at the schedule and frequency, Zhou Yuang felt that his calves were already aching after seeing it.
In the training ground of the sprint group, many people showed expressions of awe when they saw Su Yu, Zhan Youming, Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming coming back.
There is no other reason, mainly because these people are already the male "supergroup" of the domestic sprint group. Anyone who is a domestic sprint athlete will find it hard not to be in awe when seeing Zheng Tianxi and others.
Especially Su Yu, the youngest among these people. At the beginning of this season, when Su Yu had not yet started to "brush games", people would occasionally talk about Su Yu's poor physical fitness. But after these domestic players saw Su Yu complete his crazy brushing game journey from June to August, no one in China dared to talk about physical fitness anymore.
Now, when the players in the national team who are participating in the training camp see Su Yu, their first reaction in their minds has become "game-brushing maniac". They really can't imagine how Su Yu, who looks so fragile, can complete such a terrifying schedule.
Under the attention of all the players around, Sun Gaoshu and his friends also noticed the arrival of Su Yu and his friends, so they waved their hands to signal Su Yu and his friends.
"Your training ground is in another area."
The venue used by Zhou Yuang and his team is basically filled with reserve players for this World Championships - that is, reserve candidates for non-qualified events. Although the national team has not yet reached the standards for participating in the World Championships in these events, some outstanding players were still selected after the selection to come to the national team for training.
As for the players who have officially qualified for the competition, there are separate venues and training arrangements.
After hearing this, Su Yu and the others expressed that they understood, nodded, said hello to the familiar contestants, and then walked towards another venue.
After seeing Su Yu and the others leave, the other contestants at the scene couldn't help but chat a few more words.
"Your plane landed last night, so you're here for training today?"
"What else?"
"Speaking of which, Su Yu's previous schedule of two matches in three days was more intense than training today after the plane landed last night."
"Speaking of this, hasn't Su Yu's physical exertion been a bit too great in the past few months? I remember saying before that he was not in good health? Hey, do you think this is a rumor? If he is not in good health, can he still handle the three-month schedule?"
The players around him also knew that Zhou Yuang had a good relationship with Su Yu, so they couldn't help but ask him: "How is Su Yu's health?"
Zhou Yuang rolled his eyes at them: "Alright, does Su Xiaoyu still need to lie? When he first came to the S Province Sports Team summer camp for training, Yuanzi treated him like an ancestor and didn't even dare to let him carry his luggage. He was really fragile."
So he really didn't expect that the fragile Su Xiaoyu back then could now complete such a terrifying competition schedule overseas.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuang scratched his head and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go and train!"
Zhou Yuang thought that although his training during this period was really hard, if he didn't train well, he would really have to watch Su Xiaoyu fall further and further behind him.
Of course, apart from this, Zhou Yuang actually privately asked Pei Dingshan during this period why he had to put such a high intensity on Su Xiaoyu, as Su Xiaoyu was still young.
At that time, after hearing Zhou Yuang's question, Pei Dingshan asked him a question -
"Zhou Yuang, do you think Su Yu can go for such a high intensity?"
He subconsciously wanted to ask 'Why not'.
But Pei Dingshan soon asked the next question: "If Su Yu cannot strive to grow rapidly in one or two seasons, then after Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming, and Zhan Youming retire, who can the domestic track and field sprint events rely on?"
Zhou Yuang subconsciously wanted to say, "Captain Zheng and the others are not going to retire so soon," but he quickly realized that what Pei Dingshan said was true. Captain Zheng and the others were both not young anymore, and it really only took them a few years to retire.
After realizing this possibility, Zhou Yuang was stunned.
After all, he is only a 16-year-old athlete this year. Ten years ago, Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming had gradually emerged in the domestic sprinting arena. After Zhou Yuang became interested in sprinting, he worked hard with Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming as his role models and idols.
It can be said that Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming have been throughout his career so far. Although he is now focusing on 200 meters, Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming are still his idols.
For Zhou Yuang, Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming are the representatives of Chinese sprinting, especially since Zheng Tianxi broke the Asian record and Feng Chuming broke the ten-second mark last season... Zhou Yuang still remembers the excitement he felt at that time.
For Zhou Yuang, these two players who each created their own personal best results in the last season are two ageless legends.
senescence?
Doesn't exist!
But it was during Pei Dingshan's straightforward questioning that Zhou Yuang suddenly realized that Pei Dingshan was right. No matter how strong Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming were, they would retire one day, and now, that day of their retirement was getting closer and closer.
In Zhou Yuang's mind, he had never thought about what Chinese sprinting would be like after Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming retired.
But Pei Dingshan's two questions woke him up.
Yes.
After Zheng Tianxi and Feng Chuming retired, and then Zhan Youming retired again...who can China's sprint team rely on?
The only clear name popped up in Zhou Yuang's mind.
——It’s Su Yu.
This was the first time that Zhou Yuang was aware of the two words "pressure and responsibility".
As a happy child who had never had any worries since childhood, Zhou Yuang felt for the first time during Pei Dingshan's question that in addition to devoting himself to training and competition, there are also responsibilities and burdens outside the sprint arena.
He subconsciously thought of Su Xiaoyu at that time, and soon thought again - how old is Su Xiaoyu? She is a few months younger than him. As a result, will the pressure of domestic sprinting be placed on Su Xiaoyu?
But then he thought about it again.
Apart from Su Xiaoyu, who else can accompany him to shoulder this burden?
Even Team Zheng has Feng Chuming by his side to support him, and the same goes for Sun Yuhang in the high jump group next door. The national team also has Zhang Xujian who can provide insurance for Sun Yuhang's occasional crazy operations.
But what about Su Xiaoyu?
In the 100 meters, apart from Su Xiaoyu, the best result is Chen Peijie, but his result of 10.16 seconds is still 0.06 seconds away from the qualifying line of the World Championships, not to mention the qualifying line of 10.05 seconds for next year's Tokyo Olympics.
He had heard from Ye Zi and others that the coaching staff of the G Province team had discussed the qualifying lines for the World Championships and the Tokyo Olympics. They believed that the strength of sprinters around the world was further improving, and by the time the World Championships came after the Tokyo Olympics, the qualifying line would be the same as the Tokyo Olympics. As for the 2024 Paris Olympics, the qualifying line for the 100 meters might be as low as ten seconds.
In other words, if you can't run under ten seconds at the 2024 Paris Olympics, you won't be qualified to participate in the Olympics.
Even Japan's Ippei Suzuki failed to break the ten-second mark in five years. Can Chen Peijie do it by then?
Not to mention that this is just the pressure of the 100-meter event.
The same goes for the 200 meters. Zhan Youming will stay with Su Yu until 2024. What about after that?
Not to mention the 400 meters, Su Xiaoyu's 400-meter result is now unique in the country.
It was after communicating with Pei Dingshan that day that Zhou Yuang became more serious when facing training.
However, he never told anyone else the reason behind his seriousness, not even in their small group. He never mentioned these ideas.
He thought - we can't let all the domestic sprint events fall on Su Xiaoyu alone, right?
***
After Su Yu and the others left, Zhou Yuang and the others soon got back into serious training. Su Yu and the others quickly found the venue specially prepared for them by the national team, put down their sports bags, and began their own warm-up and preparation.
In the next period of time, for players such as Su Yu and Zheng Tianxi, the importance of adjusting technical details has been ranked last. What they need to do during this period is to repeatedly adjust their condition and accumulate physical strength.
Just like Su Yu, the amount of training arranged by Pei Dingshan for him was surprisingly small, which was completely inconsistent with the pressure of his previous high-intensity competitions.
In other words, during this period, Su Yu's training volume was not shockingly small, but rather "shockingly casual".
Before the start of the day's training, Pei Dingshan will first evaluate Su Yu's condition with the physical coach. If Su Yu's personal feedback during the warm-up activities or the data feedback through auxiliary tools such as heart rate belts is not ideal, Pei Dingshan will reduce his training volume to a minimum and only retain physical recovery training.
In the previous three months, Su Yu's physical strength and condition had been greatly consumed in a series of competitions. After returning to China, his weight and body muscle mass had decreased to a certain extent compared to three months ago.
In the next month, Su Yu’s top priority is no longer anything else. With the help of the nutritionist and coaching team, his top priority is to get his body back to the most ideal condition.
It is for this reason that there is a seemingly random training schedule.
It was also during this "casual" training schedule that Su Yu also went to Q University on the first day of school in September and completed his entrance ceremony as a freshman at Q University.
On that day, when it was learned that Su Yu was coming to report, the area around the Department of Mathematics instantly became a "popular scenic road". Outside the Department of Mathematics, although it was not crowded, it was countless times more lively than usual.
For these students at Q University, if the student enrolled was a celebrity, they would probably have no interest in coming to watch. But if the student enrolled was Su Yu, the situation would be different!
Su Yu!
The academic genius that is fought over by both Q University and B University!
Even at Q University, where there are so many top students and geniuses everywhere, these top students are quite curious about Su Yu.
It’s just that, as for a creature like the God of Study, you can’t tell anything just by looking at him.
Therefore, after these top students quietly gathered around Su Yu, the only thought in their mind was - this junior is really good-looking, but he looks a little too cold.
Su·Autistic children·Typical people·Yu: "..."
In their class of leading mathematics talents, Su Yu waited until the crowd outside disappeared before he breathed a sigh of relief.
After he breathed a sigh of relief, he noticed that the person sitting next to him was also an old acquaintance - Zhao Wenbo, whom he had met before in the Q University Mathematics Leadership Talent Training Camp.
Zhao Wenbo saw that Su Yu finally noticed him, and immediately greeted him: "Hello, boss!"
Su Yu: “…”
Su Yu blinked hesitantly: "Can you call me Su Yu?"
In his heart, Zhao Wenbo wanted to call him "Yu Di", but looking at the classmates around him, he felt embarrassed and finally called him "Xiao Yu".
When Su Yu was in the training camp, he arrived on time every day and left on time. Although everyone knew each other, it was really difficult for them to have any interactions. Now that he was sitting in the same classroom with Su Yu, Zhao Wenbo felt it was really amazing.
He himself...or rather, everyone sitting in this classroom is actually a genius in the universal sense. But just now when Su Yu stepped into the classroom, Zhao Wenbo still noticed that everyone around him was silent for a moment, and everyone subconsciously looked at Su Yu.
How should I describe this scene...it's a bit like a moth flying towards the light.
Take the previous training camp for example. Training camps like those of University B and University Q have always been the most open and transparent. When the two training camps announced the shortlisted lists, they also announced all the answer sheets of all the students in the two training camps for more than a month.
And Zhao Wenbo dared to say that after everyone downloaded the electronic version of the answer sheet, the first one they opened must be Su Yu's answer sheet.
I read all of Su Yu's answers and was amazed by them.
For students like them who have known since childhood that they are geniuses, Su Yu's existence, his mind, his spirituality and understanding in grasping and applying knowledge, all impressed everyone.
So much so that when people see Su Yu now, everyone's gaze becomes like moths attracted to the light, and some are glued to Su Yu and cannot be moved away.
Su Yu didn't know how to deal with the current situation, but fortunately Zhao Wenbo was a social expert and quickly noticed Su Yu's nervousness, so he brought up the topic first and made Su Yu relax.
"Xiaoyu, how come you have time to report to school today? We all thought you were too busy with the training for the World Championships to come."
Su Yu said seriously: "The intensity of the recent training camp is actually not that high."
After a pause, he asked again: "Everyone thinks...?"
Zhao Wenbo immediately understood what he meant and took out his phone: "Xiaoyu, can you add me on WeChat? We have set up a class group, but I couldn't contact you before because you didn't come."
Speaking of which, although these students in the mathematics leadership class are all geniuses, those who can be admitted to this class are not bookworms. Therefore, after Zhao Wenbo and Su Yu started chatting, while they added each other on WeChat, more and more people in the class came to chat with Su Yu.
So after a series of operations, Su Yu’s WeChat friend Xi+N was successfully added to the class group.
While these students in the class were actively looking for Su Yu to add WeChat, an old professor had already stood at the door of the classroom. Beside the old professor were several younger students who looked like master's and doctoral students under the professor. Among these master's and doctoral students, one was the counselor in charge of their class.
In addition, there were several big guys outside the classroom who looked like department leaders.
After seeing this scene, the students in the class quickly sat down quietly again - generally speaking, there would not be such a big scene on the first day of registration for freshmen in regular departments, but their class was different. After all, they were all selected through the "Mathematics Leadership Talent Program" with the goal of training them to become outstanding young mathematics scholars and mathematicians. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the scene on the first day of school.
The fact was indeed just as these students guessed. When Professor Wang and the leaders of these departments entered the classroom one by one, the leaders of the department and Professor Wang gave them an inspiring speech. During the speech, media reporters and campus reporters came to take pictures and interview them.
Only after all the busy work was done did the last person to come on stage was their class counselor.
It was only after their instructor had finished explaining the more trivial matters to them that Su Yu was called out by their instructor alone. After learning about Su Yu's upcoming training and World Championships schedule, the instructor took Su Yu and several other master's and doctoral students who came to the classroom together to add WeChat one by one.
When Su Yu said "Thank you Director Ye" to the instructor, the instructor who looked to be in his twenties smiled and said, "Okay, call me Director Ye instead of Brother Ye. Call me Senior Brother."
Then, he introduced all the graduate students to Su Yu one by one: "These are your seniors. The teacher said that the basic courses in your undergraduate stage will be handed over to us. But in addition to some basic courses, you mathematics leaders have some courses specially invited by top domestic scholars. The teacher has told you to try to attend these courses in person. If that's not possible, we will arrange distance learning or course recordings for you."
"But if we only watch the video..."
Senior Brother Ye of Su Yu touched his chin, probably feeling a little distressed.
But even if Su Yu's seniors didn't say it, he understood that, just like the previous training camp, during the on-site classes, the professor would communicate with him based on the students' reactions. If he just watched the video, the lack of this kind of communication would be a big loss.
Su Yu did not embarrass his senior brothers and sisters, and just nodded: "I understand."
Thinking of this, he added "going to class" to his schedule.
…
There were a lot of trivial things to do when reporting to school that day, and not many of them were really important. However, Su Yu still attended the event seriously and communicated with his seniors, classmates, and teacher Professor Wang for the first time.
When Professor Wang called Su Yu to talk alone, Su Yu originally thought that Professor Wang would ask him to pay more attention to cutting-edge academic content, but unexpectedly, Professor Wang pulled him aside and asked him about his experience of "brushing" from June to August.
After asking the question, the old professor asked him with a smile: "You must be under a lot of pressure and burden, right?"
Su Yu was stunned for a moment.
Professor Wang asked again with a smile: "Are you afraid? Do you not want to continue the competition because of the pressure?"
Su Yu immediately straightened up, looked at his new teacher seriously, and responded in a clear voice: "I can't."
"Aren't you afraid? Such a heavy burden is placed on a child like you. Aren't you tired?"
The old professor's face was full of kindness and smile, but there was a sharp light in his eyes.
Su Yu faced the sharpness in the old professor's eyes and said seriously: "It will be stressful and tiring, but this is the path I have chosen, and I will not escape."
The old professor listened to Su Yu's words, and the smile on his face became even more intense: "What about mathematics? Is mathematics the path you choose?"
Faced with the sudden change of topic, Su Yu was stunned for a moment, but responded with the same firm tone: "Yes, mathematics is also the path I chose."
Hearing this, the old professor smiled even more: "Even if it is so boring that it makes you depressed, even if sometimes you seem to never be able to find a pattern from the endless mess of numbers, even if sometimes you seem to be turning your back on everyone and moving in the wrong direction...?"
Su Yu: "I won't give up either."
When the old professor heard this, he patted Su Yu on the shoulder and laughed, "Good boy, I'll wait for you."
After a pause, he continued, "But I'm old, so don't make me wait too long. Also, you missed three years of high school, so don't miss out on the content you should learn..."
After that seemingly ordinary question and answer session, the old professor took Su Yu aside and talked on and on for a long time before finally letting Su Yu leave.
Before leaving, Su Yu added another WeChat message from his teacher to his mobile phone.
It was only after such a conversation that Su Yu was able to truly complete his "admission ceremony".
By the time he left school, it was already afternoon. He rarely remembered to take a few photos of the school and posted them on Weibo.
Su Yu V: [Enrollment. 】
Although Su Yu’s number of Weibo fans is not as high as those of entertainment stars who have tens of millions of fans, all of his fans are active fans, and the number of zombie fans stuffed to him by Zhalang is very small.
This was the peak time for college freshmen to enroll. The word "enrollment" from Su Yu's post automatically matched Zhalang's topic of freshmen enrollment. Coupled with Su Yu's own popularity, a large number of netizens were attracted to the spot.
[Oh oh oh, school has started in Yudi! ! 】
[Yudi, aren’t you in training? Are you free to report in today? 】
[This morning, I saw a student from Q University saying that he saw Yu Di report for duty, but Yu Di himself just posted it on Weibo at this time! 】
Because it was just a simple topic about admission, everyone's responses were quite normal at first. Some were concerned about Su Yu's training situation, and some were worried whether Su Yu's three consecutive months of competitions had put too much strain on his body.
As a result, not long after, these replies were derailed by the sudden appearance of Zhou Yuang——
Zhou Yuang replied: [QAQ Trash Su Xiaoyu, some people were in the third grade of junior high school with me. After one summer vacation, I went from the third grade of junior high school to the first grade of high school, and some people jumped from the third grade of junior high school to the first grade of college! ! ! 】
puff.
As soon as Zhou Yuang made this reply, the onlookers on Weibo burst into laughter on the spot.
[@周宇昂, it’s sour, it’s sour, you are sour! 】
[@周宇昂, some people are not only freshmen in high school now, but will also take the college entrance examination three years later, but some people will be juniors in college three years later, and will immediately pursue a master's or doctoral degree after their junior year:)]
[My friend, you are wrong. It is not about connecting to a master's or doctoral program, but directly connecting to the scientist training course =w=]
[@周宇昂@周宇昂@周宇昂, some people, you will take the college entrance examination in three years, but you still dare to post on Weibo here, instead of studying hard! 】
Zhou Yuang:……! ! !
Su Yu had not noticed Zhou Yuang’s reply at first. After all, there were too many people replying to his Weibo. But it didn’t matter. After seeing Zhou Yuang’s reply, the onlookers immediately liked his post enthusiastically, successfully helping him to move the comment that had been at the bottom of the list to the top of the likes list.
Then, after seeing Zhou Yuang's reply and everyone's comments, Su Yu silently liked the comment that said 'Zhou Yuang, why don't you study hard', and replied to Zhou Yuang with a '^^' emoticon.
Zhou Yuang: “…”
Zhou Yuang exploded on the spot, angrily scolded Su Yu as a "heartless person" at the national team training base, and angrily added half an hour of training.
The laughter on the Internet did not last too long, and Su Yu quickly returned to the national team to continue his World Championships training and physical adjustment.
In the following period, as the World Championships draws closer, the countdown to the World Championships is changing every day in the national team's World Championships training camp.
25 days, 24 days, 23 days...
When it came to September 6, qualification registration for all events of this World Championships was stopped.
From September 7 to 15, the IAAF will confirm the vacancies and substitute invitations for each World Championships event through the international rankings up to the registration deadline and issue invitations to the substitutes according to the international rankings. At the same time, the final lists of each country's relay teams will also be confirmed and submitted during this time.
On September 16, the participating lists of various countries for the World Athletics Championships were officially confirmed!
On this day, after receiving the final roster for the World Championships, the Chinese national team also released the official roster on the national team's official website, official WeChat account, and official public account.
Among the list released by the national team, the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly the final list of the men's sprint team -
in.
Final list of men's 100m sprint: Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming, Su Yu (full field);
Final list of men's 200m sprint: Zhan Youming, Su Yu;
Final list of men's 400m sprint: Su Yu.
Just as everyone had expected, Su Yu obtained the qualifications for the 100m and 200m. At the same time, in the 400m sprint event, he successfully obtained the substitute qualification for the men's 400m sprint based on his world ranking.
At the same time, he not only obtained the qualification to participate in the competition, but also decisively signed up for the three individual events of 100 meters, 200 meters and 400 meters, becoming the first Chinese sprinter in history to qualify for these three individual world championships at the same time.
After the official list was confirmed, on September 22, in order to ensure the condition of all contestants, the Chinese national team officially set off for the World Athletics Championships in Doha, Qatar!
On the Internet, in Han Yiqing and his 400m fan group, when the national team officially announced the final list of participants for the World Championships, the entire group was in an uproar.
It’s Lao Hu, not Tiger: [400 meters! ! Confirm your registration! ! ! 】
Monk Guo Debiao: [Okay! ! ! Very good! ! ! Damn, I was worried that our Yu Di had too many events and whether the national team would cut the 400 meters in his event. Now that the results are out, I can finally rest assured. 】
An old horse knows the way: [Hahahaha, Lao Han has analyzed this before. If the national team really wants to cut Su Yu's 400-meter event, then there would be no need for Su Yu to compete in the 400-meter event when he was competing frequently before. 】
Han Yiqing: [@老衲郭德彪, hahahaha, Lao Guo, don’t tell me that you didn’t apply for a visa to Qatar because you were waiting for Su Yu’s final registration list? 】
Monk Guo Debiao: [@Han Yiqing, go to hell! When you said in the group in August that you were going to apply for a visa, I went to get it done the next day! ! ! This is the World Championships. Even if Su Yuzhen doesn't participate in the 400m, I will still be there to cheer for his 100m and 200m! ! ! 】
It’s Lao Hu, not Lao Hu: [@Laonan Guo Debiao, it looks like the Asian Championships scared you a lot? 】
Isn’t that right?
After Su Yu's performance in the Asian Championships, every time Guo Debiao watched the game replay, he would howl in the group. He was really heartbroken.
From June to August after that, because the national team announced Su Yu's crazy racing schedule, track and field fans were shocked. Guo Debiao and others in the group actually considered flying to watch the game. But in the end, the journey was too far and it was only a one-day IAAF Challenge Race, and some of the 400-meter races were just silver and bronze medals, so everyone gave up in the end.
It can be said that everyone is waiting with great difficulty for the World Championships which will soon begin in Doha.
On September 25, the national track and field team arrived safely in Doha, Qatar and took a short rest. It was also at noon of the same day that the IAAF held a meeting and finally confirmed the entire schedule for the first day of the World Championships on September 27.
On the first day of competition, there will be men's long jump qualifying, 100m sprint qualifying, 100m sprint group competition, hammer throw AB group qualifying, women's high jump qualifying, 400m hurdles and other events.
Among these events, Zheng Tianxi, Feng Chuming and Su Yu will represent the Chinese team in the men's 100m sprint group stage, striving to qualify for the 100m sprint semi-finals.
After the first day's schedule was announced, the crowd that quickly gathered around expressed confusion about the two consecutive 100m qualifying rounds and 100m group matches on the first day of competition.
[Can someone explain what the 100m qualifying round and the 100m group round mean? ? ? The two matches will be held at 4:35 pm and 6:05 pm local time in Doha? 】
After seeing this question, track and field fans answered it quite quickly.
[The qualifying round is for those athletes who advance as substitutes and athletes nominated by ineligible countries to obtain the qualification to participate. 】
Onlookers:?
What? What did you say?
[Hey, don’t you know? Countries that are not eligible for the 100m sprint at the World Championships can also nominate one athlete to participate, but the number of qualifiers for the World Championships is fixed, so there is a qualifying competition before the game, which puts these registered national athletes together with the athletes selected by the World Championships officials, and uses the qualifying competition to select who can finally compete with those selected athletes. 】
Crowd: …
Wow, this knowledge is quite new, we really didn’t know it!
So now comes the question…
Someone quickly sorted out the key to the problem: [If the interval between games is so short, then those players who have just qualified for the competition will most likely consume a lot of physical energy in the qualifying rounds, and end up being eliminated in the group stage after finally qualifying? 】
Track and field fans: ... emmm, you're right.
So, now comes the most critical question.
[…Friends, Su Yu also obtained the qualification for the 400-meter sprint through the replacement ranking method, right?
So when the time comes, in the 400-meter race, he won't directly participate in the main competition, but will have to participate in the qualifying round first? ! Damn, can he physically handle it? ! 】
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
I never expected that there would be such a pit behind this? !
