Chapter 185: Persistence

Zhou Jiawei's examination results showed that he had a first-degree sprain in the lumbar spine. His condition was serious and he would definitely not be able to participate in the finals at night.

Zhou Jiawei was unable to participate in the competition, and the young player Shi Yang could only rely on the butterfly swimming.

Such a result shocked and regretted the Chinese audience.

The characteristics of this medley Chinese team are very similar to those of the American team in the preliminary round. The backstroke and breaststroke in the front are very disadvantageous, and they can only rely on butterfly and freestyle to achieve results. Now, Zhou Jiawei is ruined, and only Tang Hao is left. Even if Tang Hao is really strong, it is really difficult to get results.

From winning the second place in the group to Zhou Jiawei's injury, the audience can be said to have experienced ups and downs.

But when the finals started in the evening, they temporarily threw this aside because the first final event to be held at 1500 meters.

Tang Hao and Sun Yang both played 1,500 meters, and with two double insurances, the audience was very likely to see the Chinese team win this gold medal.

Because it is already the last game day, this gold medal is likely to be the last gold medal for the Chinese team.

The contestants appeared one after another, and Ryan Cochrane, Gergi Kish and others who had hope of winning cards attracted cheers from the audience.

Tang Hao was the second to last, and his appearance attracted even greater cheers from the audience.

The last one was Sun Yang. Compared with Tang Hao, his appearance instantly ignited the venue. The popularity of winning the championship was definitely not something that he said.

In preparations before the game, Tang Hao and Sun Yang both began to make final preparations.

Although we had already communicated a lot before, the two of us still didn't stop now.

"You were not here at 800 meters. We didn't meet 1500 meters last time. Now I finally have the chance to compete in the swimming pool. I'm looking forward to it." After Sun Yang put on his swimming goggles, he said to Tang Hao with a smile.

"If we perform normally, we should be able to win the gold and silver medal." Tang Hao nodded and said.

"I'm a gold medal, you're a silver medal, you won the gold and silver medal." Sun Yang said with a smile.

Tang Hao smiled and said nothing. The two of them usually joked a lot, so he wouldn't be unhappy because of Sun Yang's words.

However, the competition began soon, and he didn't want to attack Sun Yang too much.

At this moment, the referee on the sidelines had already ringed the ringtone and signaled the player to go to the jumping platform.

When Sun Yang saw that Tang Hao didn't say anything, he thought he had agreed and shook his arms and went on stage.

"Everyone takes your place."

A prompt sound soon came from the sidelines.

All contestants bowed their bodies and prepared to set off.

"Qua!"

Accompanied by the audience's cheers, the contestants all rushed into the swimming pool.

The World Championships 1500m freestyle final officially kicked off.

Sun Yang was ahead of all the players from the beginning, and it can be seen that Little Aries is really determined to win the gold medal this time.

Sun Yang is followed by Gerji Kish, who is the most likely person of all players to threaten Sun Yang's gold medal.

Cochrane is behind Kish, and the three favorites to win the championship were caught in the battle at the beginning.

Tang Hao accelerated slightly after coming out of the water, allowing himself to follow Cochrane.

The distance of 1500 meters is very long, so he doesn't need to rush so fiercely from the beginning.

In the first 100 meters, Sun Yang still maintained the lead, and the order of the top four players did not change. The change was more about the players at the end of the rankings, competing for each other for positions.

"Sun Yang is in excellent condition and is very motivated. It can be seen that what he wants to do is not only win this gold medal, but also to break the world record he just set!" The live commentator said after seeing Sun Yang's abnormal strategy at the beginning.

"In long-distance events, he has demonstrated absolute dominance. The previous 800 meters has proved that he will surprise us again. Moreover, Tang Hao is very hopeful to compete for this silver medal. I believe that the Chinese Swimming Legion will definitely gain a lot in this single event." The commentator also said excitedly.

In the second 100 meters, Sun Yang still maintained the lead, but it can be seen that he did not choose to accelerate anymore.

In the third 100 meters, the situation on the field changed a little. Kish accelerated and overtook Sun Yang to the first place. Cochran also accelerated to a position that was almost on par with Sun Yang. As for Tang Hao, he still maintained his fourth position.

In the fourth 100 meters, Cochran also accelerated to overtake Sun Yang. He and Kish began to fight for the first place.

After this, the players' positions did not change any more in the following 100 meters.

Until the eighth 100 meters, the situation on the field changed tremendously, and the person who caused this change was Tang Hao.

The last time I upgraded the power of the white bar in the wave, in addition to increasing the time of holding the breath, the biggest change was the change in endurance, which is not an exaggeration to say that it was doubled.

So after completing 800 meters, Tang Hao naturally started to accelerate and changed the frequency of water fetching from 4 times to 6 times. By this time, he quickly caught up with Sun Yang.

Sun Yang's outbreak was basically concentrated in the 200 meters behind. After seeing Tang Hao surpassed him, he did not rush to speed up.

After Tang Hao overtakes Sun Yang, he catches up with Kish and Cochran in the front, who are still chasing each other for the first time.

It was at this time that Tang Hao overtook Sun Yang and joined the competition for number one.

This sudden scene made Kish and Cochran stunned for a moment, and also made the emotions of the audience suddenly ignite.

Perhaps no one expected that Tang Hao would first break out.

"Suntian! Suntian!"

Although it was only 800 meters, there were already sporadic cheers from the audience.

"Tang Hao rushed a little early. What he is best at is explosion. In fact, if he stays until the last 200 meters, or 100 meters, he can even threaten Sun Yang." The commentator said with a little regret.

The commentator was silent at this time. After watching Tang Hao's several games, he knew that Tang Hao was a smart player. The speedup at this time always made him feel that things were not that simple.

Tang Hao did not slow down after his speed started.

At 900 meters, he overtook Kish and came to the first place.

At 1000 meters, he was already ahead of Kish, who was second.

At 1100 meters, his lead became 2 positions, and he was constantly increasing the distance.

At 1200 meters, his lead has expanded to five or six meters, and this distance looks quite obvious to the naked eye.

There were already spectators at the scene who couldn't help but stand up and shout.
