Competitive sports pursue higher, faster and farther, when records are surpassed, people are always nostalgic for the past and looking forward to the future! Yes! In the men's 110-meter hurdles event in athletics, Liu Xiang, a former Chinese flyer, has created countless brilliance. From the ascent to the top of the Athens Olympics, to the eighth miracle in Osaka, Japan, to the world record of 12.88 seconds in Lausanne, Switzerland, to the retirement of Beijing and London, some people applauded his results, and some people regretted his injuries! But it is undeniable that Liu Xiang once created the era of the men's 110-meter hurdles in athletics and is a flying man in China!
But the era that belonged to Liu Xiang has become a memory! Maybe a new era is coming! In NCAA D2, college athlete Del Dingch ran 12.87 seconds in the men's 110-meter hurdles in athletics, surpassing Liu Xiang's 12.88 seconds. It's just that because it is a downwind + 6 m/s, this result is not recognized by the IAAF, but this result has surprised the World Athletics Federation, because no one has reached the 12.90 mark for a long time.
Although not recognized, it is undeniable that Deldingci has a high talent. At the age of 23, he is almost a leader in the race, and his movements and rhythm are impeccable! It's really amazing! And many netizens believe that he will replace Liu Xiang to open a new era!
The Delding Wizards are only 23 years old, and it's really good to have such results. But if it is said to replace Liu Xiang, it can only be said to be a transcendence in terms of achievements. But in terms of influence, Deldinge is difficult to surpass! First, as a yellow race, Liu Xiang broke the Western monopoly on the men's 110m hurdles in athletics, and then he was the first person in Asia to win the Olympic and world championships in this event. If Deldingi wants to surpass Liu Xiang, he must first break the world record of 12.80 seconds set by Merritt!
However, it is true that the men's 110m hurdles in Chinese athletics are weak now! After Liu Xiang retired, his junior brother Xie Wenjun failed to carry the banner! In Asian athletics, the Japanese team has surpassed us! The China Athletics Association and Liu Xiang's mentor Sun Haiping have selected good seedlings all over the country, but the harvest is not obvious! Not many people can run the 13.10 mark in 13.10 seconds. Therefore, China's development in this project has a long way to go!
On the contrary, Liu Xiang, since his retirement, has rarely appeared in the public eye. As an Olympic champion, there is skill, experience and awareness, and more advice should be given to the national team on this project! After all, behind his ability to create brilliance, the national team has a lot of support and dedication to him! And the inheritance of the men's 110-meter hurdles in athletics was broken like this, what a pity! Where is the next Liu Xiang in China, unknown!
