June 20th is a very anticipated day of the year for track and field fans from all over the world.

On this day, China, the United States, and Jamaica will hold their respective national track and field championships and world championship trials.

The U.S. trials have always been known as the "Little Olympics". The overall strength of track and field sports has always been far ahead of other countries, and it is also the most enjoyable to watch.

Compared with loyal track and field fans, ordinary people rarely pay attention to those unpopular events. Most of them only pay attention to the specific events in which their country's track and field stars and world track and field superstars participate.

Therefore, the men's 100-meter trials from June 20 to June 21 have been the focus of countless people and media in the three countries.

The National Track and Field Championships and World Championship Trials of China, the United States and Jamaica are held in:

China - Jiangsu - Suzhou - Suzhou Sports Center Stadium;

America - Iowa - Des Moines - Drake Stadium;

Jamaica - Capital - Kingston - Kingston National Stadium.

There is not much to say about the first day of preliminaries. They are basically individual performances by star players from all over the world. China has Wei, Su and Zhang, the United States has Gai Yin and Gatlin, and Jamaica has Bolt, Powell and Blake.

Yohan Blake's comeback is a highlight, because many track and field fans knew that Blake was injured after his 100-meter debut of the season. For a month, he basically spent time traveling and doing charity.

Unexpectedly, after only one month of recovery training, my performance in the preliminaries was very good. I ran 10.06 seconds and easily advanced. Judging from my performance, I still have plenty of room to spare.

Wei En's preliminaries also went very smoothly. After all, for the men's sprint event, the main purpose of this trial is to determine the final list of the 4x100 relay team.

Naturally, there is no way to set up trials for relay events. Instead, the best 6 athletes will be sent to the World Championships and Asian Games based on the individual results in the trials.

If there are athletes in the 200-meter individual event who reach the level of international athletes, the 200-meter athlete with the best performance will be selected to enter the 4x100-meter relay team, and 5 athletes in the 100-meter individual event will be selected based on their performance.

If an athlete is selected for both the 100-meter and 200-meter events, the 100-meter event will be selected first.

This rule is actually just a formal rule for the current Chinese sprint events. After all, there are only a few athletes who can qualify for the World Championships.

Whether it is 4 a-marks at 100 meters or 3 a-marks at 200 meters, it is just right. But rules are rules, and the effect may not be visible yet, but it cannot be ignored.

Of course, in addition to meeting the performance standards, the 2013 Track and Field Championship champions on each continent and the 2012 Diamond League annual champions in each event will also automatically have a World Championship wild card.

But this "wild card" cannot be superimposed infinitely. For example, Wei En was the annual champion of the Diamond League men's 100 event last year, and Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng, and Xie Zhenye all reached the World Championship A standard. If in Pune, India in July,

In addition to the four of them, another Chinese athlete won the men's 100-meter championship at the championships. Therefore, the Chinese track and field team can only send up to four people to participate in the men's 100-meter event at the World Championships in Mexico.

The wild card qualification of the Asian Championship champion is indeed useless for the men's 100m and men's 200m events of the Chinese track and field team, but it is very useful for other events.

In Wei En's impression, the fledgling Wang Jianan won the Asian Championships in Pune, India in his previous life, and therefore received a wild card qualification for the men's long jump event at the World Championships in Mexico.

The B standard for the men's long jump at the Mexico World Championships is 8.10 meters, while the previous Wang Jianan's winning score at the Pune Asian Championships was 7.95 meters. It is also a way to rely on wild card qualifications to participate in the World Championships without meeting the standard.

After the Yanjing Challenge, due to Wei En's hint of "ulterior motives", Randy became interested in Wang Jianan, a good prospect, and proactively expressed his wish to the track and field center, hoping to coach Wang Jianan.

Mr. Randy took the initiative to "accept a disciple", and the track and field center was of course very happy, so Wang Jianan was directly promoted from the Jiangsu team to become a "quasi-national team athlete" and joined Randy Huntington's training team.

Of course, Randy couldn't help Wang Jianan achieve success in one month, but it was not without effect.

In the men's long jump final of the Suzhou National Track and Field Championships on June 21, Wang Jianan won the championship with a score of 8.12 meters and reached the B standard of the Mexico World Championships.

However, according to the IAAF World Championships competition rules, if a country has one A and one B or one A and more than B in an individual event, it can only send one athlete to participate. Generally speaking, the selection is based on merit.

, unless the athlete who reaches the A standard is unable to participate due to injury, it will not be the turn of the athlete with the B standard.

In addition to Wang Jianan, there is also Li Jinzhe who won the championship with a jump of 8.36 meters in the Magic City Station and created the best result in Asia in 2013. Therefore, if Wang Jianan wants to participate in the World Championships in Mexico, he can only try to compete in Punania in July.

Won the championship and received a wild card for the World Championships.

Not long after the long jump final, the Suzhou Sports Center Stadium ushered in the highlight of the night - the men's 100m final.

What makes domestic track and field fans a little regretful is that this eye-catching competition is almost a replica of this year’s National Track and Field Grand Prix in Zhaoqing. The eight people who advanced to the finals are still the same:

Wei En, Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng, Xie Zhenye, Lao Yi, Chen Guanjie, Wu Zhiqiang, Mo Youqiang.

There was no big difference in the results of the final. The average wind speed in the competition was -1.1m/s. The championship undoubtedly belonged to Wei En of the Guangxi team, with a time of 9.89 seconds.

The runner-up was Zhang Peimeng of the Yanjing team with a time of 10.04 seconds;

The third runner-up was Su Bingtian of the Guangdong team, with a time of 10.07 seconds;

Fourth place was Xie Zhenye of the Zhejiang team, with a time of 10.16 seconds;

The fifth place is Lao Yi of the Guangxi team, with a time of 10.28 seconds;

There were changes in the sixth and seventh places. Hubei team's Wu Zhiqiang beat Chen Guanjie in 10 seconds 32 with a time of 10 seconds 33. Mo Youjie was still in the bottom eighth place with a time of 10 seconds 41.

After China's results came out, track and field fans from all over the world turned their attention to the United States and Jamaica.

Although the Eastern Time in the United States where Des Moines is located is one hour later than Kingston, the capital of Jamaica, the US Championships are never held at night, so the World Championship lineup in the United States is released earlier than in Jamaica.

The result of the competition was somewhat unexpected, because Justin Gatlin defeated Usain Bolt in the Diamond League Rome station at the beginning of the month, so more track and field fans believed that Gatlin would defeat Gai Yin to win the championship.

The result was: Tyson Gayin won the championship with a flat time of 9.74 seconds under a strong tailwind of 1.1m/s, and set a new top 3 in his career.

Justin Gatlin's performance was quite satisfactory. Seeing that he could not catch up with Tyson Guyon, he let some slack in the last two steps and ranked second with a time of 9.85 seconds.

Although Tyson Guyon's 9.74 (1.1m/s) is obviously not as good as the 9.74 (0.1m/s) that Wei En ran in May, it is still a historically good result. Suddenly, Taison

Sen Gaiyin's voice grew louder and he instantly became a strong contender for the 100-meter gold medal at the World Championships in Mexico.

Charles Sirmon, a teenager in 1991, defeated veteran Michael Rogers with an advantage of 0.002 seconds and successfully got his ticket to the World Championships.

Three hours later, the men's 100-meter event in the Jamaica Trials also came to an end.

Under the strong headwind of -1.2m/s, Usain Bolt took a little slack and won the championship in 9.90 seconds.

Yohan Blake, who returned from injury, showed good competitive form and won the runner-up with a time of 9.96 seconds, becoming Jamaica's second seed.

The third seed belongs to Bailey Cole, whose time was 9.98 seconds, while Nick Ashmead unfortunately missed the men's 100m individual event at the World Championships in Mexico with 9.99 seconds.

What is surprising is Asafa Powell. This legendary veteran actually ranked eighth with a time of 10 seconds 22, which is astonishing.
