The 8.7 meter mark!

"Oh my god, Ben Mazuk even made a good 8.42 meter in this jump! In this way, Ben Mazuk became the fourth Asian athlete to jump 8.4 meters. If you look at it from your personal best, Ben Mazuk is only behind Zhang Guan and Walid. It can be said that he has become the third-best plater in Asia in the long jump event!"

Ben Mazuk retired with excitement, and coach Mike Powell in the distance immediately shouted at Mazuk, "Ben! Good! I knew you can do it!"

The 8.42-meter result is considered a top result for Asian athletes. According to the usual experience, this result is enough to win the Asian Games championship.

Looking at the 8.42-meter result, Zhang Guan suddenly realized that he would be ranked in the penultimate appearance in the next three jumps.

"The order of appearance doesn't matter. Anyway, it's still very early for my next game. There will be no conflicts. But this Mazuk jumped 8.42 meters. I didn't expect that outside of Walid, Asia still has someone who can jump over the 8.4-meter mark. Ben Mazuk is also a naturalized athlete from Africa. In the past few years, Middle Eastern countries have lost their blood to win gold medals, especially in Saudi Arabia, sprint, long jump, high jump, middle and long-distance running are almost all fill by the African Planning Corps, this style is not good."

"Sports career, it should have been developed for a long time to be affected. If you only go to naturalize athletes from other countries and don't develop your sports, when the naturalized athletes win the gold medal, it will cost you money. What's the difference between winning the gold medals? But since I'm here, even if you local tyrants spend money to buy both Saladino and Phillips, you won't get the gold medal for this Asian Games long jump!"

The eight athletes were rearranged, and then the next three test jumps will be performed by the new sequence. However, according to the current situation, perhaps only three athletes who have crossed the eight-meter mark will have a chance to compete for the gold medal.

Several of the remaining athletes have skipped the eight-meter mark. At this time, even if there is no hope of winning the gold medal, these athletes still want to hit the medal. So in the fourth jump, the athletes chose the more extreme type of jumping, and this also greatly increases the chance of fouls.

Three of the top five athletes failed the test jump due to fouls, and only two of them completed the fourth test jump. Although the results of these two are not bad, they did not reach past the eight meters.

The sixth athlete was Saudi Arabia star Al Shaba, who had already passed the eight-meter mark in his second test jump. However, with the strength of Al Shaba, he only needs to play better and he can go further.

Al Shaba adjusted his state and started to run up and jump, perhaps due to the impact of Ben Mazuk skipping 8.4 meters. Al Shabab also chose the extreme jump method for this jump. His toes almost stepped on the mark, but in the end, he made a successful jump, with a score of 8.18 meters close to Zhang Guan's 8.20 meters.

Al Shaba shook his head slightly disappointed as if he was dissatisfied with this result. This result is already very good for Al Shaba. Al Shaba's personal best score is 8.35 meters, and he can jump to close to 8.20 meters in the game, indicating that the play is very good. After all, Ben Mazuk's situation in which he jumped out of his best score in the game is unsurpassed.

The next athlete to jump was Zhang Guan who was the 7th to go.

"Finally, Zhang Guan played again. I don't think Zhang Guan will give up his test jump again. Saudi Arabia's Ben Mazuk just jumped out with a good score of 8.42 meters. If Zhang Guan wants to win a gold medal, he must challenge this result!"

The TV retransmission screen also aimed at Ben Mazuk at this time. At this time, Mazuk looked a little nervous, obviously worried about Zhang Guan jumping out of a better result.

Zhang Guan start to run, and then with the crisp pedal sound, Zhang Guan had already taken off.

"This flying height is much better than his previous jump!" Ben Mazuk suddenly felt guilty.

However, Zhang Guan in the air realized that he had stepped on the line with the jump he had just made!

"Oops, I was a little too anxious just now, and the rhythm is a bit chaotic. Forget it, let's talk about the next test jump!"

Zhang Guan retract in the air, and then landed with a protective action, and at this time, the referee raised the red flag.

In the long jump, the two stages of take-off and landing are relatively easy to get injured. Many athletes will choose some protective follow-up actions to avoid injury when they find themselves with a foul or mistakes. This is done in events such as gymnastics and diving. It is also very common.

Due to the protective landing action, Zhang Guan's jump was just over six meters, but since he was awarded a foul, the score was useless.

"Zhang Guan fouled! That's great!" Ben Mazuk was immediately excited. The height of Zhang Guan's vacated space made Mazuk anticipate that it will be a great result, and may even exceed 8.4 meters. Zhang Guan's foul gave Mazuk the best feeling of his life.

"I'm still ranked first. Next, I want to jump for a better result." Mazuk stood in the running area while thinking.

Ben Mazuk was the last athlete to make the fourth test jump, and the referee did not urge him to start, he waited for Mazuk to adjust before starting the one-minute timing.

Running, taking off, flying, and landing, Mazuk's jump is perfect in action, but his performance is not as good as the third jump.

"8.33 meters? Okay! It has exceeded Zhang Guan's 8.20 meters. So, even if Zhang Guan can jump to 8.42 meters next time, the best result is the same as mine, but his second-best result is lower than me, the championship is still mine!" Thinking of this, Mazuk was very happy, two consecutive results exceeded Zhang Guan, this is a very big advantage.

For projects such as long jump, the mental state is very important, and the psychological effect on the physical state can be said to have a geometric impact. Especially when the two athletes compete for the final championship, a little psychological advantage can get a better play. The so-called more overtime after playing, the more advantage, mainly refers to the psychological aspect.

Next came the athlete's fifth round of test jump.

The previous athletes did not bring any surprises, and the sixth athlete Al Shaba still did not jump out out any better results.

"The next turn is Zhang Guan turn. He will make his fifth test jump. I don't know about this time, he was able to fly over 8.42 meters. But because Ben Mazuk's second-best result was 8.33 meters, which also exceeded Zhang Guan's 8.20 meters, if Zhang Guan wants to win the gold medal, he needs to at least jump to 8.43 meters." The CCTV commentator said here, turned around, and asked the guest next to him, "Director Sun, do you think it is unlikely that Zhang Guan will reach 8.43 meters in this jump or will he achieve better results?"

"I think the possibility is still very high. Although the last trial of Zhang Guan failed, we can see that Zhang Guan also used a more radical method. I think if Zhang Guan didn't foul, it will probably have exceeded 8.4 meters."

The words just dropped out of Director Sun's mouth, and Zhang Guan had already started running.

"Zhang Guan started running! Good! Take off! Perfect! No foul!" Every time Director Sun said a word, the tone of his voice increased by a degree, but his last sentence "no foul" was randomly split out, Zhang Guan has fallen into the sand pool.

At the next moment, Director Sun suddenly screamed, "Win! We won! We must-have won!"

...

Zhang Guan flew in the air, but coach Mike Powell, who was watching from a distance, seemed to see himself in Zhang Guan when he was young.

"Awesome!" Coach Powell murmured to himself. Even as an opponent, even if this game is related to his job, Coach Powell still involuntarily praised Zhang Guan.

But in Mazuk's eyes, the time seemed to slow down. He saw Zhang Guan rising from the sky, gliding at the sky, and then getting closer and closer to the 8.4-meter mark.

"Zhang Guan's body began to fall!" Mazuk clenched his fists tightly. He looked forward to Zhang Guan's body landing as soon as possible, preferably before 8.4 meters.

However, it was hopeless to think of that since Zhang Guan's body was still in the air when it had already crossed the 8.4 meters.

"Zhang Guan surpassed me! But I will go over him again!" Mazuk thought to himself, he was ready to challenge the distance of 8.5 meters in the next test jump.

But then, Zhang Guan's body crossed the 8.5-meter mark, but his feet were still not in contact with the ground.

"It's 8.5 meters!" Mazuk groaned in his heart. He had realized that he might have lost. The 8.5 meters was a result he had never achieved in training. However, at this time, Mazuk still had a slight hope in his heart. Perhaps he could play a better level in the next game and jump more than 8.5 meters, and finally overtake the crown.

But in the next 0.1 second, Zhang Guan's body seemed to cross the 8.6-meter mark. At this time, although his feet were already close to the ground, he still did not touch the ground.

"Crossed 8.6 meters!" The little hope in Mazuk's heart was completely shattered at this moment.

...

Zhang Guan landed, and the location of the trace seemed to be pressed against the 8.7-meter mark.

"8.7 meters, did he reach 8.7 meters!"

In the long jump project, to the highest level in the world, every centimeter increase is extremely difficult, but people still generally see ten centimeters as an unreachable level, like a high wall that is difficult to leap over, such as 8.4 meters, 8.5 Meters, 8.6 meters...

The surveyor immediately took measurements, and immediately announced Zhang Guan's performance in this jump.

"8.70 meters!"
