Chapter 199: Best result of the year

The audience's attention was focused on Zhang Guan. The third test jump of the game was already quite eye-catching. Zhang Guan made his first appearance on the long jump field, and of course, became the focus of the audience.

Although many people are not optimistic about Zhang Guan being able to squeeze into the top eight with a test jump, almost everyone agrees that Zhang Guan's long jump strength should not be too weak, because there are many 100-meter sprinters in history who have achieved good results in the long jump.

"Zhang Guan started running! The running speed is so fast! It reminds me of Lewis." Mike Powell, the world record holder of the long jump, somehow remembered his old rival Carl Lewis.

Carl Lewis was not only the king of the 100m but also the long jumper king after Mike Powell. The thrilling confrontation between Powell and Lewis has often been mentioned.

Lewis is not as capable of jumping as Powell, but his run speed is better than Powell, which determines that his long jump technical characteristics are also different from Powell. Lewis's long jump relies more on his extreme run-up to provide thrust, while Powell relies on super jumping ability and excellent technique.

"The same was true of Lewis at that time. Although his take-off height was not as good as mine, he can still jump a long distance with a very fast run-up. The same is true for Zhang Guan today! What? The take-off height is so high!

When Powell was still reminiscing about Carl Lewis, Zhang Guan had already stepped on the springboard and jumped high into the air. Zhang Guan's take-off height is far from what Powell had imagined.

"Unlike Lewis, this bounce is not inferior to me during my prime time! Zhang Guan even has such a great bounce! Lewis' running speed and my ability to bounce all appeared on one person! Oh, my God, incredible, this is crazy..." Powell was suddenly taken aback by his thoughts. When he was young, he dreamed that he could have the speed of Carl Lewis. He even confidently believed that if he had the speed of Lewis, with his powerful jumping ability, he must have a chance to jump over the nine-meter mark!

But for more than ten years, Powell has felt that there can never be an athlete like this. Especially after contacting more and more young long jumpers, Powell is more convinced that no one in the world can have the speed of Lewis and his bounce at the same time.

But today, the athlete Powell been thinking of has appeared.

...

"Zhang Guan's approach speed is really fast." Saladino's expression was calm first.

Zhang Guan's run speed will be faster than that of other athletes. This has long been expected by Saladino. Although he has never seen Zhang Guan's long jump competition, Zhang Guan's status as the world record holder is already meant that he is the fastest long jumper in the world.

"This kind of strong sprinter should be the same type as Carl Lewis. He can get more thrust through a high-speed run. Now Zhang Guan's run should be his most advantageous place. I don't know about his jump. How far can he jump, can it exceed eight meters! It should be impossible. For ordinary long jumpers, if they have not adjusted into the state of the previous test jump, it is not easy to skip the eight meters for the first time!" Saladino thought silently.

But the next moment, Saladino was suddenly taken aback.

"The flying height is great! It's perfect!" Saladino looked at the crown in the air, and his expression changed from surprise to dignity. Just after the running speed and the current flying height, Saladino could already confirm that Zhang Guan's jump will exceed eight meters.

"It's worthy of Zhang Guan! His strength in the long jump will be so strong. It seems that there is another strong opponent in the long jump project. I want to get this gold medal for the long jump, but it seems a bit difficult!"

While Saladino thought so, Zhang Guan also completed his landing action. Zhang Guan slipped into a long trace in the bunker and then stood up.

Saladino immediately looked at the control line on the outside of the sand pool, and his original expression changed back to surprise again.

"This doesn't seem to be a difficult question! In this case, I will try my best to try my next jump!"

...

Saudi athlete Walid looked at Zhang Guan who was running up with disappointment.

"Isn't it a quick run-up! What a great thing. If I practiced sprinting, maybe I won't be as any worst than you! Besides, this is a long jump, and it's not about whos faster. Be careful of walking too fast and fouling the line!"

Ever since Zhang Guan broke the record of Asian long jump held by Walid, Walid began to feel uncomfortable with Zhang Guan. Over time, this kind of discomfort has gradually become a kind of hostility. This can be said that Walid is careful if any athlete's record is taken away by others, they probably won't be in a good mood. It may be better if they are acquaintances, but people like Walid and Zhang Guan who have never met each other can easily produce opposing psychology in the subconscious.

What's more, Zhang Guan is a sprinter. Walid feels that Zhang Guan already runs so well in the sprint event, why does he have to participate in the long jump competition, and he also broke the Asian record. This makes him subconsciously think that Zhang Guan is deliberately looking for trouble.

Zhang Guan jumped into the air, and the height in the air also surprised Walid.

"I can't jump this high in the air! Is Zhang Guan stronger than me?" Walid doubted himself for the first time.

Zhang Guan's body began to fall, getting closer and closer to the ground. Although he had not landed, Walid was already convinced that this would be the best result of the game so far. However, instead of appreciating Zhang Guan's landing, Walid turned his attention to the referee at the springboard. He saw that the referee had raised the white flag in his hand.

"No foul!" Walid's eyes widened in jealousy.

Immediately afterward, Walid looked at the scoreboard. He wanted to finalize Zhang Guan's achievement.

"Zhang Guan skipped another 8.5 meters!" Walid instantly limped down like a long-lost Chinese cabbage.

...

Zhang Guan walked out of the bunker and shook the remaining sand on his shorts, but there was a satisfied smile on his face.

He looked back and found that he jumped 8.5 meters again, and the result of this jump should be better than the Asian record.

After careful measurement, the surveyor reported Zhang Guan's results loudly.

"8.58 meters!"

The voice of the surveyor is certainly not loud enough for the audience to hear, but this result has already been passed into the ear of the live commentary through the headset. Only the commentator immediately shouted, "Zhang Guan's jump score is 8.58 meters! He's No. 1 now!"

A crowd of exclamations immediately rang out from the audience.

The best score before was Saradino's 8.33 meters, and Zhang Guan suddenly improved the score to 8.58 meters. The gap of 0.25 meters was enough to shock the audience in the long jump.

"Oh my god, this is unexpected! Although this is the third test jump of this game, it is the first test jump for Zhang Guan! If you can't grasp this opportunity, you will be eliminated. But Zhang Guan let us see his big heart, he not only grasped the chance of this last test jump but also performed perfectly! 8.58 meters, this is the best result in the men's long jump event this year! It's still a pity that Zhang Guan gave up the first two test jumps. Now it seems that he doesn't need the first two test jumps at all! Perhaps the next three test jumps, Zhang Guan will not need to participate, this result is enough for Zhang Guan to win the long jump championship!"

A minute ago, various commentators who touted Saladino fully demonstrated the professionalism of the "wall head grass" commentary. He seemed to have forgotten the Saladino that he had just praised to heaven. At this time, the praise to Zhang Guan is really like a surging river, unstoppable.

...

"The system is equipped with professional long jump shoes, and it improved the score a lot. Just now I was conservative in jumping. I thought that it was good to jump to 8.3 meters. I did not expect to be close to 8.6 meters. Listening to the narrator, it seems to be the best result in the long jump event this year." Zhang Guan looked at the result card again, and his results were already ranked first.

"The 8.58-meter result, I don't know if I can win the championship! There are three more jumps. If Saladino plays well, I can surpass this result. Fortunately, I am now ranked first, and there are eight people left in a while. At the time, I will be the last one to jump, which is an advantage for me."

Zhang Guan walked towards the athlete's preparation area, and the reporter waiting area immediately turned into a flashing ocean. If it wasn't for the employees, those reporters would have rushed over.

At the same time, the last two athletes also completed the third test jump in succession. Among them, the local Greek athlete Tsathomas scored the top eight, and the other athlete was eliminated.

Next, the top eight athletes will play in the reverse order of the best results, and in order to confirm the order of appearances, the game will also be suspended for a short time.

However, the vast majority of the top eight athletes at this time have already given up the impact of being the champion. The 8.58-meter result is simply unattainable for most athletes. Among active athletes, those who can surpass this result are even rarer.

Saladino will certainly not give up on the chance of being the champion, even if Zhang Guan has made the best long jump result from this year.

Before Zhang Guan jumped 8.58 meters, the best long jump result of the year was the 8.56 meters maintained by Saladino. If anyone can challenge Zhang Guan, Saladino is the most promising.
