Chapter 158
Amid the frenzied and restless sounds, Su Yu stepped onto his own "battlefield".
In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming immediately focused their attention on Su Yu after seeing him appear on the court.
“Here it comes!”
Tian Ruhui glanced at Su Yu who had already appeared, and after quickly observing Su Yu's condition, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Su Yu's current condition looks good."
Zhou Jiming and Tian Ruhui did the same thing. After hearing what Tian Ruhui said, Zhou Jiming couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, Teacher Tian is right. Speaking of which, many viewers who are watching the live broadcast should have seen Su Yu's performance in the last game today."
"In the men's 400m sprint qualifying competition held earlier today, Su Yu easily won the first place in the qualifying competition with a time of 45.32 seconds, which broke the Chinese men's 400m sprint record. He also qualified for the main competition as the first in the group. In tomorrow's men's 400m sprint group competition, we will be able to see Su Yu's style in the 400m group competition."
Tian Ruhui also laughed when he heard this: "Yes, after officially qualifying for the men's 400m group stage, Su Yu also truly led China's 400m sprint event onto the World Championships - Regarding Su Yu's style in the men's 400m sprint event, we welcome all audience friends to witness it with us tomorrow night!"
As he spoke, Tian Ruhui changed the subject and turned the topic back to the present.
"Before tomorrow's 400-meter race begins, let's take a look at Su Yu's opponents in the men's 200-meter sprint semi-finals."
Shifting the topic, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming began to introduce the lineup of the first group of contestants in today's men's 200m sprint semi-finals.
"As the semi-finals of the World Championships, the lineups of players in these three groups today are all luxurious."
"Yes." After hearing what Tian Ruhui said, Zhou Jiming nodded in admiration.
"In the semi-final group that Su Yu is in, there are two who can be considered as Su Yu's 'old friends' - they are Fraser Gladman from the UK and Mustafa Ayar from Turkey, who were in the same preliminary group as Su Yu in the preliminary stage."
"After qualifying for the preliminary round at the same time, Su Yu's two 'old rivals' met him in the same group again in the semi-finals. This can be considered a wonderful fate."
Tian Ruhui nodded: "Teacher Zhou is right - but reuniting with these two 'old friends' may not be good news for Su Yu."
At this point, Tian Ruhui's expression straightened and he said, "Among these two athletes, Fraser Gladman from the British team once won the fourth place in the men's 200-meter sprint at the 2016 Rio Olympics. At the same time, he was also a member of the relay team of the British team, the men's 4*100-meter relay champion team, at the 2017 World Athletics Championships."
"He is a runner who has broken the 10-second barrier in the 100m and has also run under 20 seconds in the 200m. As a runner who has achieved excellent results in both the 100m and 200m events, Fraser Gladman's 200m performance combines the strong speed ability of the 100m with excellent cornering skills and speed endurance. He is a typical runner with both front and back-end capabilities."
"Yes."
After Tian Ruhui introduced Fraser, Zhou Jiming nodded in admiration: "This is a player who has great hope and strength to advance to the World Championships finals."
"In addition to him, Mustafa Ayar, a Turkish athlete who advanced to the semi-finals with Su Yu and Fraser, is the gold medalist in the men's 200m sprint at the 2017 London World Championships."
"As the defending champion of this event, Mustafa is undoubtedly one of the world's top athletes in the 200m event. He is also a strong contender for the qualification for the men's 200m sprint final."
…
In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were still introducing Su Yu's other opponents in this game. Among these opponents, there were the defending champion of the men's 200m sprint in the World Championships like Mustafa, as well as a series of contestants from the Olympic or World Championships men's 4*100m award-winning relay teams.
Almost everyone has a continental championship medal in their hands, and there are also several champions of the World Junior Championship and World Youth Championship.
The most outrageous thing was that another "old friend" of Su Yu on the field - Gavin Korvalchuk, a Canadian athlete. This Canadian genius athlete, whose PB of 100 meters was 9.90 seconds and 200 meters was 19.90 seconds, was very "lucky" to meet Su Yu again in the semi-finals of this World Championships.
After listening to Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming's introduction, the audience in front of the TV and on the Internet fell into a strange silence.
No, we know that the semi-finalists of the World Championships are very strong, but isn’t it a bit too strong to be this strong?
[Silence is my Cambridge tonight. Okay, okay, is this how we play? 】
[…Forgive my limited brain capacity. I just listened to the two commentators reading out a series of European Championships and African Championships champions. Now I can’t tell who is who. I only know that everyone is awesome, except our Yudi (.]
【……】
[Friends in front, there is no need to be so self-deprecating. Our Yudi also has advantages...]
【↑Then the question is, where are the advantages? Question: Among this group of semi-final contestants, how many contestants’ PBs are less than 20 seconds? 】
【_(:зゝ∠)_Teacher, I know this question, just one, it’s our Yudi (.】
Yes, the 200m semi-final was almost a repeat of the 100m semi-final, or rather, it was even more exaggerated than the 100m semi-final.
There are a total of 8 contestants, 7 of whom have achieved their 200m personal bests below 20 seconds, leaving only Su Yu, whose 200m PB is 20.32 seconds.
It's very silent.
However, after several days of competition, these spectators have become quite "strong" now. After taking a few breaths, they accepted the reality that Su Yu's opponent was so terrifying. Some people even started to joke about the subsequent men's 400-meter sprint semi-finals in advance.
[Friends, I can already foresee that if our Yu Di can successfully advance to the semi-finals from the 400m group stage of the World Championships tomorrow, then in the semi-finals, the scene of today will probably be repeated - except for Yu Di, all the contestants will break the 45-second mark! (dog headjpg)]
【Pfft, although, ↑My friend in front, I think the scenario you described does not need to wait until the 400m semi-finals. The 400m preliminaries stage may be able to basically meet the requirements_(:зゝ∠)_. By the time we reach the 400m semi-finals, what we need to discuss is probably how many players have already run under 44.50 seconds. 】
Onlookers:.
These spectators who had gone through so much trouble to stay up late to watch the game were all somewhat rebellious, so after seeing that Su Yu's opponents were getting stronger, they did not get discouraged immediately. Instead, they rushed to the live broadcast room of Jigu Video and cheered for Su Yu even harder.
【Yu Emperor Yu Emperor, create miracles! ! 】
[Su Yu rush!] ! ! 】
***
Khalifa Stadium, Doha
At this time, Su Yu was still standing calmly in the eighth lane. He had adjusted the position and angle of his starting block, waiting for his race to begin.
The noise at the scene continued, and the entire stadium was as hot as a boiling boiler amid the enthusiastic cheers of the audience.
Plop, plop.
The enthusiastic cheers from the audience made him feel his body temperature rising continuously, and the skin on his body had turned slightly red in this hot atmosphere. Facing the audience and his opponents, Su Yu silently opened his fingers and closed them again.
In such an atmosphere, Su Yu felt that his body had entered a long-lost state of restlessness. While waiting for the starter's command, it was difficult for him to stand still and calmly behind the starting blocks. He kept jumping in small steps and stretching his limbs. Su Yu felt that there was always a beast-like desire lingering in his body, making him want to sprint forward immediately.
This was a long-lost state...which made him feel extremely excited.
Su Yu did not expect that he did not enter this excited state in the previous 100-meter final, but instead felt this excitement in the 200-meter semi-finals.
At this time, he kept clenching his fists and warned himself in his heart to stay calm.
An excited competitive state is good, but if he loses control in this extremely excited state, he may get the first false start foul in his career.
Therefore, even though Su Yu could feel his emotions getting more and more intense, he still kept telling himself to stay calm while jumping lightly on the spot.
Finally, when the emotions of the audience gradually reached their peak and Su Yu's emotions also reached a stable point, a reminder for spectators began to appear on the electronic screen at the scene - the men's 200-meter sprint semi-final is about to start. In order to ensure that the athletes' competition is not affected, please start to keep quiet.
As subtitles appeared on the large electronic screen, the on-site commentator began to use official formulaic terms to remind the audience to remain quiet.
The entire stadium's audience seats seemed to suddenly turn from extreme heat and excitement to extreme calmness at that moment.
In just a moment, the eight players on the field knew - here it comes, the competition is about to begin!
The stadium went from frenzy to extreme silence, causing the adrenaline of the audience and players to soar at this moment, and a tense atmosphere began to envelop everyone on the scene.
If someone in the Chinese athlete section of the audience grabbed Zheng Sheng's wrist and measured his pulse at this moment, they would find that the heart rate of the Chinese team's 200-meter sprint head coach had almost soared to 180 beats per second.
Zhou Yuang, who was also sitting in the audience, felt his scalp tingling at this moment - it was obviously not a game he was going to play in, but he was so nervous that he dared not move.
Damn, Su Xiaoyu, come on! !
Just as Zhou Yuang kept repeating the thought of "Come on, Su Xiaoyu!" in his mind, everyone heard the official starter on the scene blow a short whistle and then gave the first command of the game - "Get in position."
In an instant, the eight athletes on the field quickly circled to their respective starting blocks, leaned over with their hands on the ground, and raised their feet to step onto the front and rear pedals of their respective starting blocks.
In the eighth lane, after Su Yu stepped onto his starting block, he supported himself on the ground with both hands and tried to exert a little force on the starting block, feeling the angle of the force.
In fact, he was just making the final confirmation before starting the race, but Su Yu could already feel his own heart beating violently.
Even his breathing was a little rapid at this moment, and then he took a deep breath quickly, stabilized himself, knelt on one knee, supported himself with both hands in front of the starting line, and adjusted his condition.
Almost there.
The game is about to start - stay calm!
On the field, Su Yu kept repeating the same words to himself. He supported himself with his hands on the ground, his eyes lowered and he focused on the track in front of him. Therefore, no one noticed the desire and passion for this game in his eyes at this moment.
After all the players were in place, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming from the domestic sports channel quickly introduced the lanes of the eight players in this event to the audience in front of the TV:
"Now you can see that from lane 2 to lane 9, there are Felix Kurat from Switzerland, Elviano Ferns from South Africa, Gavin Kovalchuk from Canada, Odell Brewster from Trinidad and Tobago, Fraser Gladman from the United Kingdom, Mustafa Ayal from Turkey, and finally Su Yu from China in lane 8 and Wasim Farina from Yamecca in lane 9."
"The contestants on the eight tracks are all ready. Dear audience, let us wait and see who will truly win this game!"
As soon as Tian Ruhui finished speaking, the starter's second command came from the scene - "Ready!"
The next second, the starter's finger pulled the trigger and the starting gun fired with a bang!
“The game begins!!!”
On the track, the 9 runners stepped on the starting blocks almost simultaneously and burst into action the moment the starting gun sounded!
Compared with the 'conservative' reaction speed of the contestants in the preliminary round, in this semi-final, almost all of the 8 contestants gave the fastest reaction at the first moment.
The reaction speed of the 8 players on the field in the listening to the gun stage was all within 0.155 seconds, and Su Yu's reaction speed in this game was so rare that he was not even ranked first.
In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Zhou Jiming was stunned for a moment when he subconsciously watched Su Yu's reaction at the start.
0.142 seconds…? !
Not only did Su Yu's reaction speed not rank first in this game, he only ranked third in this game.
This is not only very different from Su Yu's usual reaction speed, but also completely contrary to the state Su Yu showed before this game - based on the experience of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, Su Yu's state before this game was very positive, and usually Su Yu would give a very outstanding reaction speed in this state.
But this one...why? !
In fact, if someone could rewind the camera at this moment and watch Su Yu's reaction when he started running at a multiple times slow speed, they would be able to see that Su Yu deliberately slowed down his reaction rhythm just before he heard the gun.
If the overly excited emotions are coupled with an overly explosive start, Su Yu feels that he will most likely lose control after the race begins.
So in the limited time before the race began, when the starter began to give the order, he made up his mind almost in a split second to slow down his reaction speed.
But even though his reaction speed had been surpassed, Su Yu's starting response time was still in the top three of the field. The only ones faster than him were Fraser from the British team and the player from Trinidad and Tobago.
From the moment he started running, Su Yu's body rushed forward rapidly under the explosive power of his legs. His arms also swung rapidly while his legs pushed off the ground alternately, driving his speed to explode in this stage.
When his body quickly rose from the prone starting position, his speed also exploded rapidly. Every step he took drove his body to gallop forward with agility and lightness step by step...!
On the track, Su Yu could feel that his body was full of strength like never before. The feeling of being full of strength and yet extremely light made Su Yu like a feather arrow equipped with an arc track device on the curve, flying a perfect arc on the eighth curve...!
His speed is sharp and fast, and his light and powerful feeling makes it hard for him not to attract other people's attention on the track!
In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming were originally shocked after Su Yu's reaction time of 0.142 seconds at the start. They originally wanted to pay attention to Su Yu, but as professional commentators, they had to focus on the British player Fraser and the Turkish player Mustafa who performed better.
Just as Tian Ruhui introduced Fraser and Mustafa's performance in the starting burst and cornering stages, within a few seconds, Tian Ruhui also noticed Canadian runner Gavin in the fourth lane and in the eighth lane...
"Su Yu...?!"
Tian Ruhui's voice rose in shock for a moment, and then Tian Ruhui noticed Su Yu's current position - although the curves in the first 100-meter stage had not yet been completed, it was logically difficult to see Su Yu's actual position, but near the end of the curve, Su Yu had greatly shortened the distance between him and Jamaican player Wasim Farina in lane nine.
You should know that in the 200m semi-finals of the World Championships, which was full of continental champions, Wasim from Jamaica also had a personal best of 19.80 seconds. But it was obvious that in this semi-final, not only did the Jamaican athlete barely qualify in the preliminaries, but his performance in the semi-finals was also very reluctant and unsatisfactory.
From Tian Ruhui's perspective, although he was looking forward to Su Yu's results, he was still very cautious. After a simple introduction of "Su Yu has greatly narrowed the gap with Wasim", he also mentioned the Canadian player Gavin in the third lane.
This dual-sport athlete from Canada also gave a very outstanding performance in this 200m semi-final - although the athlete in the fourth lane next to him, Odell from Trinidad and Tobago, performed relatively well in the waiting stage, he was almost overtaken by his opponent from Canada behind him on the left at the end of the bend...!
On the field, from the moment the starting gun sounded, the entire audience seats were transformed into a blazing desert ocean. Spectators of all kinds waved the flags of the countries they supported in the audience seats and cheered loudly for their favorite players on the field!
Everyone's emotions seemed particularly intense, and loud shouts spread throughout the entire stadium. Even though the venue was equipped with an expensive circulating air-conditioning system, which theoretically kept the temperature at a very pleasant level, every audience member in the audience seats began to sweat profusely due to the excited cheering and screaming.
"Come on, come on!!! Come on Su Yu!!!"
The high and hoarse cheers were full of excitement and strength. In the audience, Han Yiqing and others were enthusiastically waving the red flags and the banners that read "Su Yu is invincible" in their hands and roaring loudly.
Not only them, but also the Chinese team's staff and non-scheduled players like Zhou Yuang in the Chinese team's player area were shouting loudly in the direction of Su Yu.
Especially the sprint group coaches - as the coaches of the sprint group, they can certainly understand the situation on the field more clearly.
Su Yu...Su Yu’s current position is extremely close to the contestant from Trinidad and Tobago in the fourth lane!
The athlete from Trinidad and Tobago is currently in about the fourth or fifth position, which means... in this race, Su Yu is already in about the fifth position before he even leaves the curve and enters the straight sprint stage that he is best at...!
You should know that in this competition, there are a total of 8 players, and the personal best results of the other 7 players have all broken the 20-second mark, only Su Yu is still at 20.32 seconds.
In other words, the PB between Su Yu and them is at least 0.33 seconds apart.
In a sprint event where every 0.01 second has to be fought for, even if the 200-meter runners' performance improvement is relatively greater each time, the strength difference of 0.33 seconds is enough to determine the life or death of the runners in most cases.
But obviously, this game in front of us...
Su Yu's decisive and tough performance is breaking this "necessity"!
“Fifth, fifth…!”
Zheng Sheng's voice and body in the audience were already trembling. There was no doubt that with Su Yu's amazing ability in the latter part of the race, since he could already maintain the fifth place before leaving the curve, then in the final 80-meter straight stage...!
While Zheng Sheng was still thinking about this possibility in his mind, the contestants on the field had already completed the last short section of the curve race...!
The curve merges into the straight!
"The last 80 meters of the straight sprint!!"
At home, in the live commentary room of the sports channel, the voices of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming also began to become louder at this moment.
Here we come! The 80-meter stage that determines the final victory! !
"The first group now is Fraser from the UK and Mustafa from Türkiye!!"
Tian Ruhui's voice quickly introduced the situation on the field. Fraser from the British team was very active and strong from the start of this game. Although Mustafa was the defending champion, his performance was not as good as Fraser since the preliminaries.
After seeing Mustafa's performance in the preliminaries and semi-finals, many people thought that it would be difficult for Mustafa to successfully defend his title in this World Championships.
Behind the first group where Fraser and Mustafa were competing for victory was the second group consisting of Gavin on the third lane, Odell on the fourth lane, and Su Yu on the eighth lane...!
The situation in a sprint race changes unpredictably every second, just like Odell, the runner from Trinidad and Tobago in the fourth lane. Odell originally thought that he only needed to compete with Gavin Korvalchuk in the third lane for the third place, so he never expected that just a moment after merging from the curve into the straight, the runner from the Chinese team in the eighth lane surpassed him in less than twenty meters in the blink of an eye...!
“Fourth place!!!”
"Su Yu successfully surpassed Odell from Trinidad and Tobago and is now in fourth place!!"
"Hold on! Su Yu, hold on! Keep going forward!!!"
In the live commentary room of the sports channel, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming could see that the advancement of Fraser and Mustafa, who were in the first two positions, was basically a foregone conclusion. They decisively changed their target and quickly focused their commentary on the second group in the back.
Although it is difficult to advance to the semi-finals, in addition to the direct advancement of the top two teams in the three semi-final groups, there are still two places for the remaining players to advance by substitution.
What if… maybe there is hope? !
At this moment, Tian Ruhui, Zhou Jiming and all the track and field fans' hearts were pounding wildly - no matter what, Su Yu, who had already reached the top four, finally had a glimmer of hope.
If he wanted to expand this glimmer of hope, Su Yu had to move up one more level as much as possible...
Third place, is it possible? !
On the field, the competition has entered the final 50-meter stage. The Canadian star Gavin in the third lane may have felt the threat from Su Yu in the eighth lane. The Canadian athlete also began to sprint forward with all his strength regardless of everything!
On the eighth lane, there was originally a distance of more than a body length between Su Yu and Gavin. After Su Yu surpassed Odell, the distance between him and Gavin was briefly shortened to half a body length. However, in the last 50 meters, Gavin suddenly burst into a sprint with all his strength and successfully defended the last half a body length gap between him and Su Yu...!
In the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, from the perspective of Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming, one can see that Su Yu is sprinting forward with all his might. His explosive acceleration on the straight in the second half did play a role, but facing an opponent who has the ability to break the 200-meter 20-second mark, and with his opponent performing extremely well in the second half, even Su Yu, who has the ability to 'teleport' in the second half, can only narrow the gap of more than one body length to the limit of half a body length...!
In the Chinese players' zone, the voices of Zheng Sheng and the others cheering for them were almost splitting their legs. Everyone was shouting loudly, hoping that through their cheers they could give Su Yu on the field even a limited amount of strength.
“Come on, come on…!!!”
On the track, Su Yu was also sprinting with all his might, and his mind was constantly urging himself -
Hurry up!
He wants it faster! !
The power from his muscles, the power from every swing of his arms, and the elastic feedback from every pedal stroke that touches the track...
All the strength was gathered together at once, and then made him rush forward faster...!
The last 30 meters!
The last 20 meters!
10 meters! ! !
In the domestic live broadcast room, from the perspective of the live broadcast room, Tian Ruhui and others could see that in the last 10 meters, Su Yu had narrowed the gap between himself and Gavin from more than half a body length to less than half a body length...!
But it was already the last 10 meters. In these last 10 meters, Gavin Kovalchuk, the Canadian athlete in the third lane, gritted his teeth and tried his best to defend his position...!
Successfully crossed the finish line...!
The moment they saw Gavin successfully cross the finish line, Tian Ruhui and Zhou Jiming both clenched their fists with regret, closed their eyes and shook their heads.
After Gavin successfully crossed the finish line, Su Yu in the eighth lane also finally crossed the finish line with fourth place in the group.
Fourth in the group, a ranking that was surprising enough considering Su Yu's age and achievements - but if combined with the final finish line situation, it would inevitably be a bit regrettable.
Fourth in the group...!
Although theoretically, Su Yu still has the chance to advance to the finals at this stage, as long as the third player in the next group of semi-finals achieves a result that surpasses Su Yu, Su Yu will say goodbye to the final qualification for the substitute promotion.
***
At the finish line of the race, Su Yu, who had successfully crossed the finish line, was still in good shape today. Although he was obviously physically exhausted in the buffering stage after crossing the finish line, he only staggered a few steps, then supported his knees with his hands and began to buffer and catch his breath at the finish line.
After taking a breath for a while, Su Yu quickly turned his attention to the large electronic screen on the scene - he was not waiting for the results at this moment, he was confirming his final ranking.
Just now in the final sprint stage, Su Yu roughly knew that he was competing with the Canadian player in the third lane for the third place, but in the final sprint stage, the gap between him and Gavin was already very small. He could only notice from the corner of his eye that the two of them crossed the line at about the same time, and could not confirm who the final winner was between the two.
And it was obvious that Gavin Kovalchuk was also nervously watching the large electronic screen, and he was not sure whether he had successfully held his position in the end.
Fortunately, the director on the scene also knew that the last part was an important scene. The first scene played back was the final ranking battle between Su Yu and Gavin. The winner of this ranking battle was Gavin Kovalchuk from Canada.
At the finish line, Gavin Kovalchuk breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the result - this was a lucky victory.
After confirming his ranking, he turned around and looked around the scene and found his Chinese opponent in the eighth lane.
After seeing Su Yu, Gavin opened his arms and gave Su Yu a big hug.
"Hey, my young rival—you're quite a sight! I almost lost to you."
After hearing Gavin's greeting, Su Yu also hugged Gavin and said, "But you won in the end."
After hearing this answer, Gavin smiled and gestured a very short distance with his hand: "It was just a very reluctant victory. The goddess of luck favored me."
To be honest, Gavin knew that Su Yu was only a 400-meter runner. He thought that if this track was 50 meters longer, the person who would win in the end would definitely be this scary guy from the Chinese team.
After hearing Gavin's answer, Su Yu looked a little weak, but he looked at him seriously again: "Then, in the next game, the goddess of luck may abandon you."
Gavin never expected that his young opponent from the Chinese team would give him such a straightforward provocation.
Hearing Su Yu's reply, Gavin burst into laughter on the spot: "Really? Then I'm already looking forward to our next game in advance!"
After he finished speaking, he saw that Su Yu's face had also relaxed, so he raised his hand and patted Su Yu on the shoulder, saying: "To be honest, little guy, you are the most terrifying young athlete I have ever seen - God knows, you are only 16 years old! And what was I doing when I was 16? At that time, my 100-meter result was only 10.42 seconds, and my 200-meter result was even only 21.34 seconds."
At this point, he looked at Su Yu: "So what are your results? Oh, of course I know your 100m PB is 10.02 seconds, what is your 200m PB?"
Su Yu blinked: "20.32 seconds?"
Hearing this data, Gavin waved his hands exaggeratedly: "Hey, kid, don't lie to me. If your PB is only 20.32 seconds, then are you telling me that I just ran a very good race, but my result was only in the early 20s?"
Gavin exaggeratedly gestured at his own results: "Hey, I think I can at least run 20.15 seconds this time, right?"
Although excellent contestants like them cannot accurately estimate their final scores, they can still roughly judge the range in which their scores fall.
Su Yu did not insist, but said: "Well, I also think I ran well in this race."
As he was talking, a new noise suddenly broke out at the scene, and the picture on the electronic screen flashed. The final results of the men's 200-meter sprint semi-finals of the World Championships finally appeared on the screen.
First place: Fraser Gladman (Britain), 19.93 seconds (wind speed -0.1m/s), PB, Q (directly qualified);
Second place: Mustafa Ayal (Türkiye), 19.98 seconds (wind speed -0.1m/s), Q;
Third place: Gavin Kovalchuk (Canada), 20.10 seconds (wind speed -0.1m/s);
Fourth place: Su Yu (China), 20.21 seconds (wind speed -0.1m/s), AU20R (intercontinental U20 record);
Fifth place: …
When Su Yu's achievement appeared on the electronic screen at the scene, Gavin looked at Su Yu beside him with a proud look on his face: "Hey, little guy, you see I was right, right? Congratulations on your new PB and record!"
At the same time, in the live commentary room of the domestic sports channel, Tian Ruhui jumped up excitedly the moment he saw Su Yu's result. The regret and depression he had felt for Su Yu's failure to successfully take the third place disappeared at this moment, and were replaced by excitement and ecstasy!
In the live broadcast room, Tian Ruhui looked at Su Yu's final result and said loudly and excitedly: "Dear viewers!! 20.21 seconds!! Su Yu won the fourth place in the first group of the semi-finals with a score of 20.21 seconds--"
"At the same time, Su Yu also broke the current Asian U20 record with this result, and... qualified for the men's 200m at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics!!!"
"Let us congratulate Su Yu together!!!"
