The 20-year-old Liu Xiang's successor was born! won the 60-meter hurdles championship in 7.58 seconds, and Xie Wenjun has a successor
Hey, fellow runners, have you heard? The 20-year-old successor of Liu Xiang, Liu Junqian, has recently swiped the screen on the international stage again! This time, he won the men's 60-meter hurdles with a time of 7.58 seconds, leaving the whole world stunned
To be honest, the result was a bit of a surprise. After all, Xie Wenjun is the former Asian hurdle king, his best time is 7.60 seconds, and Liu Junqian, this young man is only 20 years old, so fierce?
Liu Junqian, a young man, is talented and has outstanding strength. He's very explosive and fast, and he has a lot of room for improvement. In this competition, he ran a time of 7.68 seconds in the preliminaries and won the second place in the group. In the final, he broke through himself and ran a personal best of 7.58 seconds to win the championship!
This is no joke. 7.58 seconds is the 10th fastest time in Asian history, which has surpassed Xie Wenjun's best time of 7.63 seconds in the 60m hurdles. What a sight to behold!
Xie Wenjun, as Liu Xiang's younger brother, also studied under Sun Haiping. After Liu Xiang, he became the Asian hurdle king. He has won the men's 110m hurdles championship at the Incheon Asian Games and the Jakarta Asian Games, and the results are also quite good. And now, seeing Liu Junqian's outstanding performance, we have to sigh: Xie Wenjun has a successor!
Of course, Liu Junqian still has a long way to go if she wants to reach Liu Xiang's peak state. After all, Liu Xiang's Asian record is 7.41 seconds, which is a very difficult height to surpass. However, Liu Junqian is still young, and he still has a lot of time to improve his strength. His physical strength and speed are on the rise right now, and he has a chance to set his best in the future.
Speaking of which, I have to mention one thing. Our Chinese track and field team has been gaining momentum in recent years! From Su Bingtian's 100-meter flyer to Liu Junqian's current 60-meter hurdles championship, we have seen more and more Chinese faces emerge in the international arena. This is not only an individual honor, but an entire national honor.
Watching these young athletes compete for gold and silver in the international arena, we can't help but look forward to the future of Chinese athletics. They are not only excellent athletes, but also representatives of China's image. Their hard work and fighting spirit inspire every Chinese and make us more convinced: as long as we put in the effort, our dreams can come true!
Finally, I would like to say: Young man Liu Junqian, keep up the good work! You are our pride and the future of Chinese track and field. No matter how great the challenges and difficulties may be, we must persevere. Believe in your own strength and ability, and you will be able to create more brilliance!
