In the sprint field, Jamaica's lightning trapeze - Usain. Bolt is a well-deserved first man in history. Whether it is the great achievement of the Olympic Games three consecutive championships and three golds, or the miracle of 9.58 seconds and 19.19 seconds in the Berlin night sky, it is a unique existence in history, so Bolt is an indisputable existence as the first person in the history of sprinting, so who is the second person in the history of sprinting, which is also a topic that track and field fans have been talking about and arguing endlessly. So in this issue, we will use several indicators to determine who is the second person in the history of sprinting. (For entertainment only)
First of all, we have to determine the selection indicators, first of all, all sprint projects have the highest attention, the largest gold content, the most representative of the human speed limit must be 100 meters, also known as the 100-meter trapeze war, followed by 200 meters, 4×100 meters because it is a team event, so it can not intuitively reflect the personal strength of the runners, so this indicator will not consider the situation of 4×100 meters, and the proportion of 100 meters is greater than 200 meters. Then the comparison of indicators is mainly divided into two aspects, one is the individual performance and performance thickness of the players, and the other is the honor of the contestants.
The first thing we have to determine is the candidate to participate in the second person in history, and the highest voice must be a member of the 100 meters and five tigers, but because of Assafah. Powell's big game was poor, Justin. Gatlin's best result was at the bottom of the five Tigers, so the most controversial remaining is the 100m national record holder Tyson. Guy and Bolt's disciple, Yuhan from Jamaica. Blake, then the candidates for this issue will start from these two players and synthesize the comparative analysis of these indicators.
(1) Comparison of results in 100 meters
First of all, the highest-ranking 100-meter flyer competition personal best results comparison, are: Tyson. Guy 9.69 sec (+2.0m/s), Yuhan. Blake 9.69 seconds (-0.1m/s), from a personal best, Guy and Blake are both 9.69 seconds, ranking third in history, but in terms of hard power, Blake's 9.69 seconds of this shot hard power is stronger than Gay's, because Guy ran out of the big downwind, and Blake ran out of the wind, so Blake's strength is harder, but there are also many track and field fans will say that Blake created the results at the Lausanne Stadium at an altitude of 600 meters, and Gay ran 9.69 seconds in the condition of nearly 0 altitude in Shanghai, and the high altitude does have a certain impact on the performance, but scientific data analysis, the impact of altitude on the performance is far less than the wind speed, through scientific calculations At 0 wind speed and 0 altitude, Guy's hard power of the 9.69 second shot is 9.78 seconds, while Blake's hard power is 9.70 seconds, so in terms of personal bests, Blake leads. We all know that the occasional burst of a shot can not fully represent personal hard power, we also need to look at the thickness of the performance, Guy's 100-meter career top ten average of 9.782 seconds, Blake's 100-meter career top ten average of 9.802 seconds, so from the 100 meters of time thickness, Blake is slightly inferior.
On the left is Guy's top ten, and on the right is Blake's top ten
This is mainly because Blake was injured in 13 years of competition, thigh hamstring muscle three-degree strain, can be roughly understood as the entire rupture of the posterior thigh muscle group, you can imagine what this means for sprinters, basically directly announced the end of his career, although Blake is still insisting on training, but there is no possibility of returning to the peak. Blake's career highlight period is concentrated in 11 to 12 years, because the peak period is short, so the thickness of the achievement will certainly be slightly worse, and whether Blake in 12 years is at the peak is still controversial, but rational analysis, the peak of Blake's 100 meters hard power should be stronger than Guy's should be no doubt.
First indicator: Yuhan. Blake > Tyson. Guy
(2) Comparison of the winners of the 100-meter competition
The highest level of events in the athletics category is mainly the Olympic Games and the World Championships, we mainly look at these two events, the achievements of these two athletes, first of all, the Olympic Games with the highest attention and the largest gold content, Blake won a silver medal in the London Olympic 100 meters final with 9.75 seconds, and also became the strongest runner-up in the history of the Olympic Games in the 100 meters, gay in the same field finished fourth with 9.80 seconds, and the doping test was cancelled after the game. Guy's 100 meters were not as good as Blake's at the Olympics, and Guy was the 100-meter champion at the 2007 Osaka World Championships. Defeating Powell, who was in excellent form at the time, he finished second in the 2009 World Championships in Berlin with 9.71 seconds, while Blake was the 100-meter champion at the 2011 Daegu World Championships, running 9.92 seconds to win the championship in the face of a big headwind, although it was ridiculed as the champion who was missed due to Bolt's snatching, but this did not affect Blake's ability to win the championship. In the 100 meters, Guy had one more silver medal at the World Championships and one more silver medal at the Olympics, but the Olympics were heavier than the World Championships.
Second indicator: Yuhan. Blake > Tyson. Guy
(3) Comparison of 200 meters of results
Although the influence of the 200 meters is less than 100 meters, it has to be admitted that the 200 meters is also an important criterion for the historical status of a sprinter, in the 200 meters event, the situation seems to have a one-sided situation, first of all, the personal best of the 200 meters, which are: Blake 19.26 seconds (+0.7m/s), Gay 19.58 seconds (+1.3m/s), from the best result, the gap between the two is not small, from the height of the performance, Blake ran three times into 19.60 seconds (19.54 seconds, 19.44 seconds, 19.26 seconds), Gay only ran 19.60 seconds, and Blake was recognized as the closest person to Bolt in the 200 meters, and the shot in 19.26 seconds had an extremely slow starting reaction (0.269 seconds of starting reaction), the pure running time was 18.99 seconds, and the Bolt World Record 19.19 seconds shot had a starting reaction time of 0.133 seconds, and the pure running time was about 19.06 seconds, which means that if Blake's shot was a normal reaction time, Bolt 19 The world record of 19 seconds may no longer exist. Of course, there are not so many ifs, because the starting reaction is also one of the abilities of athletes, and Bolt is the result of the 8th shot in the case of headwinds, the physical fitness at this time is not in the best state, and Blake is a shot in downwind conditions, the state of the two races is not the same, so the pure running time wins Bolt does not mean that the 200 meters of hard power exceeds Bolt, but through data analysis, although Bolt's extreme speed (the highest speed in the race) is faster, Blake's endurance (ability to maintain maximum speed) is stronger than Bolt's, and Bolt's 200 meters is actually an advantage in the first 100 meters, and Blake is faster in the last 100 meters (this is scientific segmented data, not made up). Back to the main topic, in the 200 meters, Blake can be said to be the end of the gap Guy.
Third indicator: Yuhan. Blake > Tyson. Guy
(4) Comparison of the winners of the 200-meter competition
The first is the Olympic Games, Guy's 200 meters still did nothing at the Olympic Games, Blake won a silver medal in the 200m final of the 200m 2012 London Olympics, which is also the strongest runner-up in the history of the 200m, here it has to be said that Blake is indeed miserable, before the London Olympics in jamaica qualifiers Blake 100m, 200m double-kill Bolt to win the championship, and then ran 9.75 seconds and 19.44 seconds in the London Olympic Games but can only be taught by Bolt, Bolt's competition play is indeed stronger. At the World Championships, Guy was the 200m champion of the 2007 Osaka World Championships, Blake did not have a medal at the 200m World Championships, although the strength of the 200m Blake was stronger, but the honor of the competition did lose to Guy, Guy won the World Championship in 19.76 seconds, Blake only had a runner-up in 19.44 seconds, and could only lament that Blake was not born at the right time.
Fourth indicator: Tyson. Guy > Yuhan. Blake
Combining the four indicators, Yuhan. Blake is the second person in the history of sprinting after Bolt, and the analysis of this article may be lacking or error, which is welcome to point out in the comments section.
