Almighty Coach

In the final of the Olympic men ’s long jump, a total of 15 players participated. The reason why there are three more players is because in the qualifiers, four players are tied for 12th place, and they can not jump to the next one. High, so I can only come to the finals.

However, this has no effect on the final championship and third place competition, anyway, the last few people have no ability to compete for medals.

The starting height of the game was 2.20 meters, no one failed at this height, all 15 players were promoted. The next height is 2.25 meters, the two were eliminated. The third height was 2.29 meters, and three others were eliminated. After the fourth jump of 2.33 meters in height, there were six players left on the field.

In terms of the increase in height, high jumps and pole vaults are different. Pole jumps are increased by at least 5 cm at a time, and the height increase of the high jump is larger at the beginning of the game, which can be 5 cm or 10 cm. As the game progresses, the height increase will gradually decrease. Basically, what the referee needs to control is to finish the whole game in 5-8 trial jumps.

Next, the bar was raised by 3 cm and reached 2.36 meters.

2.36 meters, it is already very difficult for Leonard. In the last Olympic Games, he was stuck at this height, and finally only won the bronze medal.

Now facing this height again, Leonard remembered the story that Li Dai told him about the broken ship, and the phrase "meeting the narrow road to meet the brave man" also constantly flashed in his thoughts.

Although this was only Leonard's first test jump at a height of 2.36 meters, Leonard felt inexplicably at this time that this seemed to be his last test jump.

The next second, Leonard started.

"Pretty!" When Leonard crossed the bar, Li Dai couldn't help but praise it. This was a perfect test jump.

"Successful in one go!" Leonard climbed up from the sponge pad. He seemed very excited. After all, he fell to this height four years ago, and now he has successfully overcome this height.

"Coach Li taught me that it is very effective. Don't think about retreating, as long as you work hard, you will be able to succeed!" Leonard thought that his mental hypnosis played a role, but he didn't know that the state of Libra appeared Once the state burst.

The height of 2.36 meters has indeed stifled many athletes. When this height is over, there are only three people left on the field. In addition to Leonard, there is the last champion Russian player Gdalenko, and Ukraine's "prince of long jump" Dogorlov.

Among them, Gdarlenko also skipped the height of 2.36 meters, while Dogorlov directly chose not to jump at 2.36 meters.

Today ’s Dogorlov is extremely confident. He chose skip-free at the first jump of 2.20 meters, then skipped 2.25 meters, and again chose skip-free at 2.29, and then crossed 2.33 meters. Now he has already This is the third time he chose not to jump. Next he will directly challenge the next height. If the next height fails three times, his score can only be calculated according to 2.33 meters.

This time the crossbar increased by two centimeters to 2.38 meters, and the best result of this year's men's high jump is only 2.37 meters, which means that if you cross this height, you will create a best result of this year.

Leonard stepped onto the field, and he began mental hypnosis again.

For Leonard, he only succeeded once in the game at a height of 2.38 meters, so he must not make any mistakes in the next test jump, and he must also play very well to be able to jump over.

Starting, accelerating, jumping, Leonard's upper body successfully crossed the bar.

"It's another state burst!" Li Dai has confirmed this from Leonard's jump height.

However, the status of bursting does not mean that it will be successful. The height of 2.38 meters is too difficult. Even the world's top athletes are difficult to surpass.

I saw that after Leonard crossed the bar, his heel touched the bar.

"Oops." I was not good in Li Dai's heart, and Leonard realized this, his body was still in the air, but his face showed a frustrated expression.

The audience also saw this through the large screen, and exclamation sounded from all around.

However, the bar just wobbled a little, and then came to a halt.

Although Leonard touched the crossbar, the crossbar did not fall.

According to the high jump rule, one of the definitions of a failed test jump is that the crossbar failed to stay on the crossbar support due to the athlete's movement. In other words, as long as the crossbar did not fall, even if the athlete touched the crossbar, this test jump was successful.

However, the crossbar of the high jump is easy to fall. The crossbar bracket simply provides a support point, but it has no fixed effect. A little touch may make the crossbar bracket fall. And the direction of the crossbar support is facing the direction of the sponge pad, which is the same as the direction of the athlete's travel, that is to say, as long as the athlete touches the crossbar, whether it is the inertia of the body movement or the direction of the action force, the Push the crossbar off the direction of the crossbar holder, which makes the crossbar easier to push down.

"Leonard's luck is awesome!" Li Dai let out a breath.

The body hit the bar, but the bar did not fall. This is a factor of luck. It can only be said that at this moment, Newton's three conclusions are on the side of Leonard.

In addition, at such a critical time, the state of Libra has been in a state of explosion twice in a row. The goddess of luck indeed embraced Leonard.

Leonard's heart had already hung in his throat, especially the second that the bar was shaking. For Leonard, it seemed like a century long.

"The crossbar didn't fall!" Leonard looked at the referee for the first time. The referee hesitated for two seconds, and then raised the white flag after confirming that the crossbar would not actually fall.

"Successful!" Leonard just got up from the sponge pad, but knelt down in excitement, his hands kept making punches to express the excitement in his heart.

Beside the field, the expressions of Russia's defending champion Gedarenko and Ukraine's "Prince High Jumper" Dogorlov became dignified.

...

Ukrainian "Prince High Jumper" Dogorlov stood on the field.

At the previous height of 2.36 meters, Dogorlov directly chose not to jump. This behavior also showed that Dogorlov was extremely confident in his own strength. He seemed to be telling everyone that the height of 2.38 meters, for For other athletes, it may be a challenge that he cannot complete in his life, but for him, it is only a sparse and ordinary height.

Dogollov is a young man, as can be seen from his nickname "Prince High Jump". In his youth, Dogorlov swept almost all the high jump championships of youth competitions, and after entering the adult group, he was also a frequent champion of various IAAF events.

But God seems to be playing tricks on this "high jump prince." Although he swept through various track and field events, he never missed the medal in the Olympics.

Dogorlov participated in the Olympic Games for the first time and contracted the flu before the finals, which greatly affected his physical condition and on-the-spot performance, but he still won a fourth place, close to the medal.

In the Olympic Games four years later, Dogorlov was also selected to the Ukrainian national team, but was injured in a warm-up match before the game and directly missed the Olympic Games and the World Championships two years later.

It is now the third time for Dogorlov to participate in the Olympic Games. At that time, the "high jump prince" has faded into immature. However, his desire for the Olympic gold medal has not been reduced by a little, but has become more intense.

In today's game, in addition to the desire for championship, Dogorlov also brought his own pride and self-confidence.

In the first four heights, I chose skip-free twice, especially at the height of 2.36 meters. I still choose skip-free. This is indeed enough self-confidence, and there is even a component that wants to "show".

There is a saying that pretend that it was struck by thunder. Although Dogorlov was not struck by thunder, he always paid a price for the "show". At the height of 2.38 meters, his first test jump was unsuccessful.

Dogorlov got up, walked off the sponge pad, and shook his head while walking. He was obviously not satisfied with his performance in this test jump, or he felt bad because he didn't succeed in the "show".

Immediately after the game was the last Olympic champion Gedarenko.

Four years ago at the Olympics, Gedalenko won the championship with a score of 2.38 meters. Today, four years later, he has to face this height again, but this time, if he also jumps a 2.38 meters, he cannot successfully defend his title .

Gudarenko is still very confident about this height. After all, he successfully crossed this height four years ago.

Amid the applause and cheers from the audience, Gedarenko started his own test jump.

However, this test jump of Gdalenko was not successful, and he also failed.

Gedalenko walked down from the sponge pad, his expression was indifferent, and his mentality did not seem to be affected by the failure of the test jump. From the point of view of Gedarenko, this first test jump is just a small process. If you succeed, you are naturally very happy, and if you fail, you will be treated as a state of adjustment. After all, with his strength, 2.38 meters is not the end.

...

Dogorlov started his second test jump at a height of 2.38 meters.

Running, taking off, crossing the bar, and landing, the "high jump prince" posture is still so beautiful, like a piece of finely crafted art.

Dogollov sat up, he just wanted to raise his hand to celebrate, but the bar rolled down suddenly.

"What's going on? I clearly didn't hit the crossbar!" Dogorlov suddenly looked surprised.

The next second, a slow-motion replay appeared on the big screen at the scene. When Dogorlov lifted his foot, the heel of the heel slightly rubbed against the bar. It was this extremely slight stroke that made Dogorlov fall short of the test jump.

"Actually, I think that the technical action that Dogorlov just did not need to be so gorgeous, he can be conservative." Li Dai commented.

"It's no surprise that Dogorlov has always been like this. He likes to express himself too. He always hopes to win in the most beautiful way. Indeed, if you win, it is pleasing enough, but it also increases the loss This is probably his biggest shortcoming. "Downey replied.

The next player is Gdalenko. After the failure of the last test jump, Gedarenko made a self-summarization and then returned to the arena.

"Gedarenko's style is more stable. I think in terms of his strength, it must be no problem to cross 2.38 meters. The key point is that he needs a few test jumps to complete." Downey said. .

"It seems to be at least three times now. He is too stable, and the take-off height is too conservative. Although this can complete the entire set of technical movements smoothly, it is not enough to let him cross this height." Li Daiyin fell at the same time. Gedalenko's test jump also failed.

Robust players are like this, you give him a height, as long as he has the strength to pass, then the probability of his success is very large, unless the luck is not good, every test jump performance is poor.

At the height of 2.38 meters, the two most favorable contenders for the two Olympic champions all failed in two test jumps. Then they faced the same choice, whether to continue to try to jump at a height of 2.38 meters, or choose not to jump and go directly to try Jump to the next height.

The referee suspended the game and asked the opinions of the players on both sides.

"With Dogorlov's character, he will definitely choose not to jump." Downey said decisively.

"What about Gedarenko? What choice will he make?" Li Dai asked.

"Gdalenko is always very stable, I guess he will not bet on the next height." Downey replied.

Sure enough, Downey's judgment was completely correct. Next, Dogorlov, who should have appeared, did not appear. Instead, Gedarenko stepped on the run zone, which shows that Dogorlov chose not to jump. Dalenko chose to continue to try 2.38 meters.

"If other athletes haven't skipped 2.38 meters, it may be the right choice for Godalenko to continue the test jump. But now, even if he skips 2.38 meters, he is not the champion." Li Dai shook his head slightly, He was very pessimistic about Gedarenko.

This time, Gedalenko spent more time in preparation, and it was not until the referee reminded that the countdown was about to begin that Gedalenko took the steps.

Gedalenko crossed the bar, and his body had not fallen completely on the cotton pad, but he had already heard the sigh of disappointment from the audience.

It was indeed bad luck for Gudarenko today, and his third test jump failed. The champion of the last Olympics was the first to be eliminated.

...

The next height is 2.40 meters. This height has exceeded the Olympic record of 2.39 meters, and the world record of 2.45 meters is only 5 centimeters.

Leonard never skipped this height in the game, even in daily training, he would not try this height. At the current level of athletes, in international-level competitions, more than 2.35 meters is enough to lock the champion. Perhaps only the Olympics-level competition can increase the height by 2.40 meters.

The height of 2.40 meters is indeed beyond the scope of Leonard's ability. His first test jump, without even crossing the upper body, hit the crossbar to the ground.

Leonard's performance also made people realize that he could not jump 2.40 meters.

So as long as Dogorlov, who previously chose not to jump, was able to jump over 2.40 meters, then he was the champion. And if he can't jump, because of the previous jump-free at 2.36 meters, his score is only 2.33 meters, he can only get a bronze medal, and still tied with other players.

Dogorlov only had one last chance to try.

However, 2.40 meters is within the scope of Dogorlov.

It's just that Dogorlov's last test jump was successful, still at a height of 2.33 meters. Now come directly to challenge 2.40 meters, which is equivalent to an increase of 7 cm in height. In the high jump exercise, to a height of 2.30 meters or more, an instant increase of 7 cm, almost no athlete can adapt to this increase in height.

...

Dogorlov suddenly felt a bit of a surge of emotion. He felt that after failing to make two consecutive jumps at 2.38 meters, using his last chance to loot his opponent at 2.40 meters was really a wave of "Tianxiu" operations.

"As long as I can succeed this time, I will create the most classic scene in the history of the Olympic Games in high jump events!"

At this time, Dogorlov still cherishes the idea of ​​wearing a "show presence" ~ www.readwn.com ~ He is such an athlete who is full of "expression desire", just like those "heads can be broken and hairstyles can not be messed up" People, even at this critical time, Dogorlov still thinks not how to win the game, but is thinking about how to win beautiful.

If you want to win beautiful, the premise is to win!

It was another run-up, jump, cross bar, and textbook-like technical moves.

If the bar does not fall, it is really "picturesque".

...

"Failed!" Dogorlov's eyes widened, looking at the fallen bar, but his expression was incredible.

Perhaps for Dogorlov, the height of 2.40 meters is a must.

Dogorlov failed in the final test jump.

Leonard adds another gold medal to the American team.
