On April 6, Beijing time, the men's 100 meters of the year's best result was recently produced, but what is surprising is that it is not the world's top sprinters who create this result, not even professional athletes.
On April 1, local time in the United States, at the Arnie Robinson Athletics Invitational Tournament held at The Mesa College in San Diego, Garcia, a college student from Monte San Antonio College, ran 9.88 seconds (-0.1) in the men's 100 meters, creating the world's best time of the year, but Garcia's performance was not recognized at first, and the reasons were very simple.
Not only is Garcia by no name, even his alma mater Monte San Antonio College is not a famous school in the NCAA, nor is it the top sports school in the United States, such a school, such a student to run such an amazing result is difficult to accept, and Garcia's previous personal best is only 10.16 seconds, this time the result exceeds his current best of 0.28 seconds, to know that a top track and field star will have to improve the score of 0.5 seconds, I am afraid it will take several years of effort.
However, after Garcia was questioned, in the early morning of Beijing time, the IAAF recognized this result and stored it in the database, acknowledging that this result was the best result so far this year, but Garcia's result was not reported on doping testing. It is worth mentioning that the second place in this year's best results list is also a college student, Benjamin Azamatti from Ghana who ran 9.90 seconds, and the third place is a professional athlete, the American star Fred Coley.
Rationally speaking, although Garcia is considered to be a famous person in the United States, his previous best time of 10.16 seconds is also a very good result in China, in the sprint project, we have to admit that the overall strength of the United States is strong enough, the average level of 100 meters sports students in colleges and universities to run into 10 seconds 50 is a common thing, but we can also see the signs of the rise of our sprint project, Su Bingtian, Xie Zhenye has run out of our turning point and dawn.
