The official website of the World Athletics Federation announced the latest women's 100m hurdles world rankings, and Wu Yanni, who successfully won the championship on the Osaka Tour, rose to 38th, which is also the highest ranking in the history of her career. Lin Yuwei, on the other hand, has slipped from 43rd to 44th in the world rankings and could fall out of the top 50 in the future as she has been competing in the lowest level of events.
Wu Yanni's world ranking rose from 39 to 38, she overcame the troubles of her menstrual period at the Osaka Tour, in 12.91 seconds in the preliminaries and 12.86 seconds in the final, defeating the three stars of the Japanese team Mako Fukube, Yumi Tanaka and Asuka Terada.
Wu Yanni maintained the best results in Asia this year in the 60-meter hurdles and 100-meter hurdles, and initially established the status of the first sister in Asia. As the active Chinese athlete who has run the 13-second mark the most, Wu Yanni's stability is highly regarded, and her spirit of daring to participate in international competitions is even more popular. Whether you like her character or not, recognize her strength or not, but she never has stage fright, and the Sichuan girl who dares to play is pungent and has been praised by everyone.
Because she was not used to competing with Quinn, Amsang, Charlton and Williams, Wu Yanni did not run into 13 seconds in the two Diamond Leagues and missed the opportunity to earn points. Although the Osaka tournament won the championship as a C-level event, the points are relatively small, and this weekend's Tokyo Gold Label is an A-level event, which will be a great opportunity for Wu Yanni to further improve her rankings.
Lin Yuwei's world ranking dropped from 43 to 44, and the Asian Games champion has been training in the United States this season, but due to the local weather and venue in Florida, there are always strong winds, resulting in her running 6 shots, only 2 shots are legal wind speeds, which are 12.97 seconds and 13.52 seconds (the difference between the two results is really big), and the remaining 4 shots are not recognized by the World Athletics Federation.
The main reason why Lin Yuwei's points can't go up is that the level of the competition she participated in is too low, either E or F, this is the lowest event of the Athletics Federation, if Lin Yuwei continues to stay in the United States to participate in this kind of low-level event, the ranking will only get lower and lower, because the weight of the points is not enough, and the wind speed is not high at every turn.
On the world side, Olympic champion Puerto Rico's Quinn is first, world record holder Nigeria's fierce woman Amsan is second, and indoor world champion Charlton Athletic of the Bahamas is third. In Asia, India's Yarj ran the second-best time in Asia after Wu Yanni's 12.87 seconds, ranking 22nd in the world and first in Asia. Japanese veteran Asuka Terada is ranked 27th in the world and second in Asia. Yumi Tanaka is ranked 35th in the world and third in Asia. Wu Yanni is fourth in Asia and Lin Yuwei is sixth in Asia.
Liu Xiang's younger sister, Xia Sining, a 20-year-old beautiful girl, slipped to 176 in the world ranking, and because she was injured and could only participate in domestic competitions, the ranking was in danger of falling out of the top 200.
