Chapter 516 Triple jump world record

Because of Zhang Guan's trial jump, the competition had to enter a short timeout stage. The referee seemed very humane at this time, and he did not urge the next athlete to play. A result of more than 18 meters does take some time to celebrate, not to mention that it is the host player who jumped out of this result.

The first two attempts ended in failure, but the third attempt was won by a single jump. The psychological satisfaction that this kind of comeback brings to people is really unparalleled. This kind of tension, this kind of stimulation, and this kind of reversal is also the greatest charm of sports.

In front of the TV, the supporters of Zhang Guan showed expressions of relief, and the TV broadcasters of various countries also turned on the "congratulations" mode. In everyone's opinion, the score of 18.10 meters is indeed enough to win the championship, and Zhang Guan is far away from the gold medal It's just a matter of time.

In the studio of the British TV station, Edwards, who seemed a little embarrassed at first, finally smiled at this time, while the host next to him looked at Edwards with admiration.

"Your judgment is really too accurate. Although Zhang Guan failed in the first two attempts, he jumped 18.10 meters in the third attempt. He has surpassed Harry. Sen's score of 18.09 meters, he has become the second longest jumper in this event, second only to you!" The host said to Edwards.

"Yeah, speaking of it, I'm quite stressed right now. This is Zhang Guan's third attempt. He still has three more attempts. I think he will hit the world record in the next competition." .Maybe my triple jump world record will soon be lost.” Edwards laughed self-deprecatingly.

"I don't think so. The world record you hold is 18.29 meters. If Zhang Guan wants to break this world record, he has to jump an extra 20 centimeters. This is simply impossible." The host made a statement. A very exaggerated expression.

Edwards shrugged his shoulders, smiled slightly, and said, "If it were someone else, it might not be possible. There are still three chances to try jumping, maybe it is really possible to surpass me!"

...

Portuguese player Evora looked at the number "18.10" on the electronic display with despair in his eyes.

Just a moment ago, he was still thankful for Zhang Guan's failure in the first two attempts, and was still looking forward to this Olympic gold medal, but now, he knows that this Olympic gold medal is far away from him.

Although Evora was temporarily ranked third before, she was not worried about it. The first-ranked British player Aidouu has a score of 17.62 meters, and the second-ranked Bahamian player Sanz has a score of 17.59 meters. With Evora's level, he can easily surpass these two figures.

However, 18.10 meters, this is a result that Evola cannot match. His best record in history is 17.74 meters. He simply does not have the ability to jump over the 18-meter mark, let alone 18.10 meters. Even though Evola tried his best, he was still far from this achievement.

A few days ago, in the long jump final, Zhang Guan also surpassed Saladino, but Saladino did not give up. Even when Zhang Guan broke the world record in the long jump, Saladino still wanted to give it a go. idea. That's because Saladino also jumped out of close results in his usual practice.

Even in normal training, Evola has never jumped beyond the distance of 18 meters. So he had no intention of continuing to challenge Zhang Guan, and he decided to withdraw from the gold medal competition.

British player Aidou's performance was even worse than that of Evola, because before that, his performance ranked first among all the contestants. He was looking high-spirited, waiting for the upcoming fourth round of trial jumps, but a result of more than 18 meters came out of nowhere. That's right, an achievement that can never be surpassed.

Of course, the most depressing thing at this time is the Russian player Spasokhorsky. He happened to be ranked eighth and could participate in the fourth trial jump, but now he has lost the opportunity to continue the competition, and No one felt sorry for him, and no one even noticed that he had been eliminated, because all eyes were on Zhang Guan.

...

After the three rounds of trial jumping, the top eight contestants have been determined and re-ranked according to their results, but at this time there is no suspense about the title of the champion, because no one can even jump the 18-meter barrier except Zhang Guan.

The fourth round of trial jumping has begun. For the other contestants, although there is no hope of a gold medal, they still have to fight for an Olympic silver or bronze medal. It took too much energy for them, and the athletes who are playing today are indeed far behind the 18.10m score.

Portugal's Evola jumped out of 17.67 meters. With this result, he surpassed Aidou and Sanz and ranked second. Aiduwu, who was the penultimate player, seemed to be still affected by the last trial jump, and fouled by stepping on the line in the fourth trial jump.

The top seven contestants have all finished their trial jumps, and it is Zhang Guan's turn to appear next. After a few minutes of rest, the audience has also recovered some physical strength, and they began to send the most enthusiastic cheers to Zhang Guan. applause.

Zhang Guan has already skipped 18 meters, the Olympic gold medal is almost guaranteed, and he has broken the Olympic record for the triple jump. Then, he has only one goal left, which is the world record!

Some people recalled that three days ago, Zhang Guan broke the world record in the long jump in the same venue.

Some people think that since the beginning of the Olympic track and field competition, Zhang Guan has broken the world record in every track and field final he has participated in.

"Will Zhang Guan break the world record in the triple jump?" Someone asked involuntarily

"Yes, definitely will, and now he will definitely hit the world record for the triple jump!"

"World record! World record! World record! World record!"

I don't know who took the lead in shouting these four words. Gradually, the audience also shouted loudly.

Countless people looked at Zhang Guan expectantly. They had already guessed that Zhang Guan would challenge the world record next, and they felt that Zhang Guan would definitely be able to do it.

Standing in the run-up area, Zhang Guan slowly adjusted his breathing. At the same time, he looked at the flat sand pool in the distance, but his heart became more and more peaceful.

His goal is indeed a world record.

Zhang Guan had three chances to break the world record, but he didn't want to waste one, he hoped to succeed once.

"World record, here I come!" Zhang Guan confirmed his thoughts, and at the same time he started the run-up.

He turned into a sharp arrow, rushed forward, and jumped high.

One arc, two arcs, three arcs, three perfect jumps, he fell into the sand pool. Immediately afterwards, there was an exclamation at the scene.

In the sand pool, the leftmost end of the trace has clearly exceeded the 18-meter mark, and it is also far behind 18.10 meters. Zhang Guan's test jump this time was much better than the last time. And the referee raised Bai Qi to tell everyone that this was a successful trial jump.

"Over 18 meters again! I skipped the 18-meter mark twice in a row."

"Zhang Guan jumped 18.10 meters last time, but this time he jumped farther than last time!"

"It seems to have passed the 18.30-meter mark"

"Exceeding 18.30 meters? Isn't that breaking the world record for the triple jump of 18.29 meters!"

I wanted to explode, but I ended up writing about Calvin, and I rearranged my thoughts again. Come back and fill it up for everyone.
