In the women's 100m hurdles, Wu Yanni jumped five places from 44th to 39th, setting a new personal high and setting a new record, while Lin Yuwei fell two places from 41st to 43rd, and Xia Sining did not enter the top 100 in the world.
Obviously, after participating in two consecutive Diamond League events, Wu Yanni participated in the top events of the World Athletics Federation, although she was ranked at the bottom of both races, and her ranking bonus helped her a lot.
Lin Yuwei, on the other hand, suffered the bitter fruit of the low level of participation, and her ranking did not rise but fell.
Let's first review Wu Yanni's results in the last two Diamond Leagues:
On April 27, Beijing time, at the 2024 Yangtze River Delta International Track and Field Diamond Championships (Shanghai/Suzhou) Station, Wu Yanni set a new personal season best of 13.15 seconds to the bottom, and Tokyo Olympic champion Camacho won the championship with a time of 12.63 seconds. Although it was the 9th to cross the line, Wu Yanni ended up in 8th place because the world record holder Amsan fouled and the result was invalidated. In this duel, Wu Yanni fell behind the whole way.
Earlier, in the Xiamen station that ended on the evening of April 20, Wu Yanni completed her first outdoor race of the year in 13.04 seconds. In this round of the race, Wu Yanni also started to collapse, and when she attacked the first hurdle, she was already a little behind, and it was difficult to catch up with the distance with the runner next to her on the way, and finally finished in 10th place.
In the two Diamond Leagues, Wu Yanni's performance is indescribably outstanding: 13.04 seconds in Xiamen and 13.15 seconds in the Yangtze River Delta. Neither race did achieve Wu Yanni's pre-race target of 12'90 and 13'00.
On the other hand, Lin Yuwei.
In the early morning of April 28, 2024, in the women's 100m hurdles on the east coast of Florida, Lin Yuwei won the silver medal with a time of 12.83 seconds, setting another best time in Asia this season, which is also the second time she has opened the 13-second mark this season.
Earlier, in the early morning of April 14, Lin Yuwei broke the 13-second barrier in the women's 100-meter hurdles competition of the Tom Jones Track and Field Invitational at the University of Florida in the United States, setting a new Asian best time of 12.97 seconds this year. This is also the seventh time that she has opened the 13-second mark at the compliance wind speed.
Obviously, in terms of results, Lin Yuwei's two international results this year are better than Wu Yanni's, and both opened the 13-second mark.
If you only look at the results of the competition, Lin Yuwei crushed Wu Yanni. But why can Wu Yanni be ranked in the world, Wu Yanni can leap up and surpass Lin Yuwei, but she is firmly on the throne of "China's first sister", and at the same time, she is also "Asia's first sister".
To tell the truth, with the title of "Asia's First Sister", Wu Yanni still has confidence no matter how much she is embarrassed. Achievement is traffic, and it is useless to say more!
In fact, just like a tennis match, as long as you participate in the top 8 in 1000 tournaments, whether it is points or bonuses, even champions in 250-level events cannot reach.
This parameter is the same for athletics competitions, which are divided into categories according to the level of performance.
For example, the Olympic Games and the Outdoor World Championships belong to the highest level of OW events, followed by GW events, including indoor World Championships, Diamond League, etc., then GL events, such as the Outdoor Asian Championships, followed by A-level events, such as the Asian Games and Indoor Asian Championships, and then B-level events, Universiade, Military Games, etc., as well as C, D, E, F and other non-mainstream events.
This year, Wu Yanni's participation level is all towards the first-class masters, the Indoor World Championships and the Diamond League, which are both world-class competitions. This is like Zheng Qinwen in tennis, who only participates in WTA 500 and above events.
Of course, the purpose of such a participation plan is clear, that is, not to waste energy and reduce commercial value in low-level competitions.
And Lin Yuwei seems to have run 6 times this year, but only 4 times have been recognized by the World Athletics Federation, and the levels of these 4 times are E and F levels, and it can even be said that they are not in the stream.
Not to mention the low level of the competition, the key is that Lin Yuwei's 12.83 seconds run in the United States exceeded the legal limit of 2 meters per second because it ran 3.6 meters per second with a tailwind, and this result was not recognized by the World Athletics Federation.
This one is in and one out, so it is normal for Wu Yanni's ranking to rise and Lin Yuwei's ranking to fall.
Of course, the world ranking doesn't say much, it's just a title. With the current ranking of the two, if it weren't for the local battle or the operation of the agency, the two would still have to rely on their results to participate in the top races.
And in a highly confrontational sport like track and field, the results are only more convincing when they are played on the same field.
Otherwise, the results of one or two stops in the air can only prove the state of a sports meeting.
Next, Wu Yanni will participate in the 2024 Japan Athletics Kinan Michitaka Memorial Race on May 12. Lin Yuwei continues to train in the United States with the national team, and may also participate in a series of small competitions.
There is really not much to say about Wu Yanni. People who don't like her just see these 3 words, they don't need to look at what they said at all, it's just a black spray. There is nothing new in spraying her, it is nothing more than contrived makeup, bold dressing, exaggerated opening movements, and "Internet celebrity said".
Those who like her think that the new generation of young athletes should have a flamboyant personality and not be afraid of other people's eyes.
Allow yourself to be yourself, and allow others to be others.
After all, in your field, have you ever been in the top 50 in the world?
The Olympics are just around the corner, and that's the most important competition. Wu Yanni's goal is to stand on the stage of the finals, whether this goal is too high or not, but if she doesn't even have a dream, she doesn't even set a goal, do you expect her to have a good result for such an athlete?
Is this your problem?
