As we predicted before the game, in the women's 4*200m freestyle final of the World Championships in Doha on February 16, the Chinese team was replaced by Ai Yanhan and Australia was replaced by Jack.
In this final, both the Australian and New Zealand teams adopted the tactics of first strong and then weak, trying to establish a lead with the first two sticks, motivate the players behind them, and let the players behind play at a high level to maintain the lead.
This provided an opportunity for Li Bingjie of the Chinese team to show herself.
The first member of the Chinese team is Ai Yanhan. She had a reaction time of 0.69 seconds and swam 1:57.65. Due to the number of first players, she was only in 6th place, with a gap of 1.5 meters from the first place.
The second batter of the Chinese team is Gong Zhenqi. She jumped well, with a reaction time of 0.16 seconds and swam 1:58.84. Although she moved up one place, she was four metres behind the first-place team Great Britain.
The third batter of the Chinese team is Li Bingjie. She reacted in 0.28 seconds, and as soon as she entered the water, she chased 4th place in the first 50 meters, 3rd in the second 50 meters, 2nd in the third 50 meters, swam to 1st in the third 50 meters, and swam 2 meters ahead in 200 meters. Li Bingjie swam an astonishing 1:54.59 to help the Chinese team recover 6 meters, from 5th to 1st.
The fourth batter of the Chinese team is Yang Peiqi. Yang Peiqi did not drop the chain, her reaction time was 0.24 seconds, and the advantage was expanded to 3 meters as soon as the water was launched, and finally when she touched the wall for the first time, the advantage was as much as 4 meters. Yang also swam well in 1:56.18.
In the end, the Chinese team won the gold medal in the women's 4*200m freestyle at the World Championships in 7:47.26, with the British team as the runner-up and the Australian team as the third runner-up.
This gold medal is interesting, it has allowed the Chinese team to give birth to a large number of very young world champions, which was unimaginable in the past.
They are: 14-year-old Gong Zhenqi, 16-year-old Yang Peiqi, and don't forget, there is also 17-year-old Ma Yonghui, who played in the preliminaries, is also considered a world champion, and her gold medal will be delivered after the medal ceremony.
Zhang Zhanshuo's record as China's youngest swimming world champion set five days ago was soon broken by 14-year-old Gong Zhenqi.
Let's take a closer look at the picture above, Gong Zhenqi's ignorance after winning the championship. She won the world championship in her first World Championship, and after winning the championship, she may have thought that she would have to make up for her homework during the winter vacation of her second year of junior high school.
