On the second night of the World Championships, at 6:50 pm local time, the third round of the women's long jump final was in progress. The order of the first three jumps in the final was decided by the draw. Chen Huanzhi was ranked first, and she had finished jumping. She was sitting in the rest area, watching Yiga who was about to play.

The sand pit at Daegu Stadium is probably a bit magical, otherwise it cannot explain why everyone performs so abnormally.

After Botrini, who had a minimum effective score of 6.82 meters throughout the season, jumped from a new low of 6.79 meters in the preliminary round, today's first jump was 6.82 meters, followed by two consecutive mistakes and fouls.

The last Olympic champion jumped to 7.3 meters ten years ago, and in the preliminaries, Iga, who jumped 6.86 meters in the first jump, made a foul on the first jump, and wanted to be conservative in the second jump, but was too conservative, only 6.17 meters, and was ushering in her third jump, which may also be her last jump in this World Championships.

After making two consecutive mistakes, Chen Huanzhi had to choose the safest way in the third jump. 6.58 meters is her current result, and she is temporarily ranked eighth.

Ten of the 12 people in the final have passed, she is still ranked eighth, Iga is about to play, she is the last one.

In other words, it is the moment of life-and-death confrontation between her and Iga. Iga jumped to more than 6.58 meters, and she jumped into the back three times. Chen Huanzhi said goodbye. If it is the opposite, it is Yiga's turn to say goodbye to her Eighth World Championships. Chen Huanzhi can continue to compete for her last three times.

At such a moment, although Chen Huanzhi's eyes had already stuck to Yiga, her face was still very calm. She leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, looking a little relaxed, but in a place where everyone could not see, her hands in her pocket had already been pinched into fists.

"...The atmosphere on the court is very tense now. Whether Chen Huanzhi can advance to the third jump in the first World Championships depends on Iga now." Shen Wenbin in the commentary seat had already introduced Iga's glorious record to the audience. "Iga did not perform well today. Her effective score was only 6.17 meters. Except for the year when she had been recuperating intermittently in 2006, I don't seem to have seen her perform so poorly. Iga is a famous player and a veteran. She is 35 years old and has participated in many Olympic and World Championships. She once competed with Jones. It is said that her experience is so rich that she should not perform so abnormally."

As China's most outstanding long jump coach, Director Feng is the special guest of this game. "In fact, most players performed poorly today. This is related to the order of draws and the overall atmosphere of the game. Today, the strongest person on the field is actually Butrini. She is strong and is just the right age, followed by Yiga and Xiao Chen."

"The draw draws Xiao Chen to the first place. When she jumped for the first time, she was actually more than 6.9 meters, very close to 7 meters. But unfortunately, she was fouled and her toes were slightly pressed. But she suddenly scared the other players, including Butrini and Iga, because they wanted to compete for the championship in their hearts. It was probably that the two of them regarded each other as their biggest competitors, but when Xiao Chen jumped, they suddenly found that there was an unexpected opponent here, and they panicked."

"Actually, if it were other players, even if they had never played in the game before, they might not have put such pressure on others. But Xiao Chen, the famous tree, everyone knows that 100-meter athletes generally have no worse results in practicing long jumps. Besides, for a 100-meter athlete like her, everyone might have thought that she might not be able to practice for a few months, but now others have to pay attention to her."

"As a result, the performance was abnormal." Shen Wenbin continued. Seeing that the referees on the court were replacing new plasticine boards, he continued to talk, "How is Chen Huanzhi's performance this time?"

"Xiao Chen's performance is OK." Director Feng began to turn his words back, "Long jumping is different from sprinting. Sometimes fouls are inevitable. If you can avoid fouls, you can win steadily. But if you need to challenge your limit speed and jump at the limit, you must sometimes take the risk of fouls. If Xiao Chen jumps at the score of 6.6, then she will not fouls ten times and ten times, but this cannot be won."

Shen Wenbin: "The opponent is too strong."

Director Feng nodded, "Yes, so she must strive to jump to 6.8 meters, 6.9 meters, so that she has the opportunity to compete for medals. Then because of her strength, the players who want to win gold medals must also risk fouls to challenge their limits, while other players do not have this concern. Look at Radvika, Ivanova and others are not panicked, and they maintain their consistent level, 6.72 meters, 6.74 meters. Challenging the limit is more important than strength, and luck is more important. But Butrini is still lucky. She can still rank first for 6.82 meters, but Iga is not good, and she didn't jump well in the second jump, which suddenly forced herself to a dead end. Judging from her past technical characteristics, in the 6.6 meters, she is not as stable as Xiao Chen, who can jump just by saying a jump."

Shen Wenbin: "Even if 6.6 meters is far below her performance limit."

"Yes, even if it's far below her limit." Director Feng said this, he couldn't help but whispering to Chen Huanzhi again. "In fact, there are almost no active athletes who can be as stable as Xiao Chen in the 6.6 range. Of course, there are many people who can jump to this score, especially many, and there may be dozens of them every year, but they don't say that like Xiao Chen, you can jump immediately. Judging from her usual training record, you may not miss once if you jump 100 times. This actually continues her stability in sprinting, that is, after her strength reaches that, she can play steadily and continuously. If Iga also has such stability, then she will not be so passive now."

The referee signaled that he could start, and the passive Iga walked onto the runway and began to prepare.

Tian Youli couldn't help but drooling his fingers, and Liu Xinyuan next to him pushed him, "What are you doing? Don't show off your indecent gestures, what should I do if I get a picture after a while?"

"No, I'll just look at the wind and headwind." Tian Youli started his hand and sighed, "But there must be a big headwind." But the air in the stadium tonight was almost motionless, and the airflow was as slow as indoors.

"I don't think the wind can handle much big things, and I have to count on the Brazilians to commit a foul." After Liu Xinyuan said guiltily, looking at the Brazilian coach who was lying nervously on the railing not far away. After reading it, he remembered that he couldn't understand Chinese anyway, so it didn't matter.

Yijia started. Chen Huanzhi, who had been staring at her intently, suddenly turned her face away as if she couldn't stand it. For two seconds, she couldn't help but turn her face back. Just as she saw Yijia jumping high, she drew a smooth arc in the air and landed in a nearly textbook-perfect posture.

Iga stood up along the diving inertia. She stood in the sand pit without moving, but turned her head to look at the referee. The traces she left in the sand pit were obviously close to 6.8 meters.

Chen Huanzhi couldn't help but exclaim loudly as the audience in his ears, and was ready to applaud his opponents - now she is famous and shameless, she plans to be a decent loser, anyway, she will make a comeback sooner or later, and Iga, this is probably her last World Championships.

Then the referee raised the little red flag.

Foul on the line.

Chen Huanzhi gently leaned his back, which he had stood up at some point and breathed a sigh of relief. After a few seconds, she stood up and started to take off her clothes and prepare - as the eighth place, she would be the first to appear in the last three jumps, and it was her time to come soon.

And Iga, standing in the sand pit, until the referee in charge of the flattening device urged her, she lifted her legs out of the sand pit as if she woke up from her dream. She originally planned to go to the rest area to get her clothes and backpack, but she had to leave. The World Championships had come to an end for her, but for some reason, she rushed straight through the rest area until the edge of the stands. Looking at the coach on the other side of the railing, she finally couldn't help but lie on the railing and burst into tears.

But all this had nothing to do with Chen Huanzhi. At this moment, she was already standing on the track and began to prepare for her fourth jump.

"...The next one is Chen Huanzhi. She doesn't have to have any pressure now. She just needs to try hard to challenge her limits and see what she can do." Shen Wenbin said, "I feel that luck is on her side today. Who would have thought that before the game Iga's score was only 6.17 meters. She was the first jump in the qualifying round at 6.86 meters."

"This is the charm of long jump. Before the results of the competition come out, it is full of possibilities for everyone." Director Feng said, "This is different from 100 meters. If you can do 100 meters, then as long as you are not sick or injured, it is difficult to make yourself unable to do it. If you can't do it, you want to rely on psychological adjustment to perform extremely well, that's also difficult. But long jump is different, and psychological factors have too much impact on performance."

Shen Wenbin: "Just as Chen Huanzhi said in his post-match interview before? If you have strength, you may not necessarily win, but the possibility of losing is smaller."

In fact, Chen Huanzhi is not enough to just challenge the limit. She still has two choices. She uses more familiar super-speed skills or more targeted leap skills. One has a success rate of about 60% to 70% and the other has a success rate of only 50%.

But this is the data summarized by dozens or hundreds of times during training. She only had three jumps in the game, and she had skipped three times. The more she went back, the less physical strength she felt, and the more she was, the more she was, the control of her body would decrease.

Therefore, 80% of the competitions have already won the championship in the first three jumps, and 90% of the long jumpers have the best results in the first two jumps.

It is called the last three jumps, but Chen Huanzhi feels that her real chance is only this time.

The countdown card has only 15 seconds left, and Chen Huanzhi bowed and started to start.

She turned on the leap skill, and at the moment she jumped up, she really felt like she was flying. This time she landed so much that she even rolled forward before she stood up.

Almost at the same time, the referee raised the white flag and the results were effective.

More than ten seconds later, the long-suppressed applause and cheers of the audience, the measurement results were also released, 6 meters 97.

Chen Huanzhi has temporarily risen to the top.

Then it depends on whether Butrini can take over this challenge.
Chapter completed!
