Last year in Tokyo, the summer sports event, which had been postponed for a year, was finally completed, and the Chinese sports delegation performed very well, winning a lot of gold medals, ensuring the health of all athletes, and returning home safely.
In the athletics field, Su Bingtian is the brightest star, and this sprinter has attracted great attention. Although his personal performance and results were very good, Su Bingtian had a regret in the team event, that is, he finished fourth in the men's 4X100m relay race and missed the medal.
However, this situation soon changed, and it was already reported that the British relay team that won the silver medal was disqualified from the men's 4×100m relay event at last summer's sports event because of the relevant prohibition rules by the athlete Gitjindu-Uja, and the medal had to be withdrawn.
In the early hours of last night, the International Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) issued an announcement through its official website confirming the news. As a result, the Chinese men's 4X100 relay combination composed of Tang Xingqiang, Xie Zhenye, Su Bingtian and Wu Zhiqiang won the bronze medal with a time of 37.79 seconds.
At this point, Su Bingtian finally got this late medal, which is a dream come true. But to get the medal in this way, Su Bingtian is still a bit deficient, because he did not stand on the podium to get it.
However, in the track and field field, this kind of story is not uncommon, because there are still many athletes who violate the prohibition rules. In 2019, Gong Lijiao became the bronze winner of the women's shot put at the 2008 summer sports event in Beijing, which is a similar story. In any case, I still want to congratulate Su Bingtian on receiving a valuable medal.
