Beijing Issa Recruitment

On May 3rd1day, Beijing time, lyles, a 23-year-old American who won the 200-meter World Championships in Doha, lost to Issa Young, a veteran of 3 1 0.05 seconds, and won the second place with a wind speed of +0.2 meters per second. This season, he suffered a four-game losing streak in the 100 meter race.

Lyles and Coleman are known as the world sprinters after 1995. After Bolt retired, they dominated the world sprint 100 m and 200 m events. Compared with the top invincible 200m, lyles once showed great potential in 100m, second only to Coleman. In 2065,438+09, Coleman was defeated in the Shanghai Diamond League in 9.86 seconds, and then defeated gatling to win the annual Diamond Finals in Zurich.

When Coleman was banned for doping violations and completely missed the Tokyo Olympic Games, lyles, who had a strong sprint speed in the later period, was expected to become the favorite to win the 100-meter Olympic Games. However, judging from a series of performances in the first half of this year, lyles was in a low state, which constantly lowered people's expectations for him.

April 18, tom jones Memorial Tournament, lyles's 100-meter debut, lost to gatling and Grass, and only won the fourth place in 10.08 seconds; On April 24th, Eugene Grand Prix, he ran10second 17 and lost to Bromell10second 0/; On May 23rd, lyles lost to Sayang who won the championship in 9.94 seconds, and lyles won the runner-up in 10 seconds.

This competition once again faces Issa Young, a 3 1 year-old veteran. Issa Young ushered in an anti-aging explosion this year, and finally beat lyles again with a good score of 9.89 seconds, leading by 0. 16 seconds, ranking second in the world this year after Bromell's 9.88 seconds. Isaian has proved that he is not a flash in the pan and has the potential to hit the Olympic gold medal.

Four 100-meter races in two months, losing to gatling, Grass, Bromell and Isaian in succession, without winning a championship, running continuously 10 second. It seems that lyles did not deliberately hide his strength, which is a direct manifestation of his low state. The highly competitive Olympic trials will begin in mid-June, when lyles will once again face Bromell, gatling, Baker and Isaian, and five athletes will compete for three Olympic 100 meter places. At present, lyles is the first candidate who is most likely to be eliminated.

Even if he is lucky enough to enter the top three and qualify for the Olympic Games, if his status is not improved and the probability of lyles hitting the Olympic gold medal is close to zero, then he will not be able to achieve the goal of becoming another Olympic gold king after Bolt. If losing the 100-meter race affects the performance of the 200-meter race, then he will miss the Olympic champion in the 200-meter race, which he is good at, and the loss will outweigh the gain. If there are mistakes in the 100-meter relay race, such as falling out of bounds and the United States fails to win the championship, then lyles's first Olympic Games trip will face the worst situation without a gold medal.

Perhaps, giving up 100m in the 20 19 season and focusing on 200m and 4 100m relay is the best choice for lyles, with at least 1 Olympic gold medal. After all, at present, he is not a fledgling 100-meter genius like Bolt, and it is difficult to sweep his contemporaries. What do you think of lyles in the upcoming trials and the Olympic Games?
