Bolt is the world's first man in athletics sprinting, leading the post-80s five tigers to create the golden age of the peak of 100 meters, compared with Bolt's brilliant and dazzling achievements, the other four tigers appear to be eclipsed, the most tragic of which is Asafa Powell, who broke the men's 100 meters world record twice in 9 seconds 77 and 9 seconds 74, and participated in three Olympic Games but could not touch a single medal.
Powell and the United States double male Gatlin, Guy are born in 1982 of the era of the famous, 04 Athens Olympic Games is Powell and Gatling's personal first Olympic Games, Powell ran 9.91 seconds before the first two times, Gatlin also ran 9.92 seconds, the two are considered to be the new era of success in the impact of medal success, Gatlin competition ability is stronger, the end of the Green era with 9.85 crowned to become the new Olympic 100 meters champion, Powell won the fifth in 9 seconds 95 seconds, missed the medal.
In the following three years, Powell showed super talent, ran three 9.77 seconds, a good time of 9.74 seconds, two breaks, two draws world records, and stood on the top of the world in absolute results, but Powell later encountered his brother Bolt and Blake, as well as Gay from the United States, Gatlin who returned from the ban, the above strength of the famous hardcore blocking, and Powell's own ability to play in the competition has not been improved, Powell's Olympic impact medal road continues to be full of sadness.
On the eve of the Beijing Olympic Games, Powell ran a strong performance of 9.82 seconds, Gay did not qualify for the final in the Olympic Games, only Bolt's strength was stronger than Powell, Powell as long as he played in the final at a level of 9 seconds and 90 seconds, the victory over the podium was very promising, contrary to his wishes, Powell once again showed the soft-footed ability of people to be criticized, and played the same as the Athens Olympics in 9 seconds 95 to continue to win the fifth.
2012 London Olympics, Powell opened 9.90 seconds three times before the game, creating a personal best of 9.85 seconds in the season, the Olympic Games played at the right level, Powell still hopes to stand on the podium, the London Olympics gathered Bolt, Blake, Gatlin, Gay, Powell's strongest five, staged the human speed armageddon, the yellow bearded Powell is very active, in good shape, the first half of Powell is in the first leading group, into the last 50 meters of thigh suddenly strained, sadly the last one over the finish line, Seventh in 11.99 seconds.
Subjective and objective dual factors affect, Powell three Olympic Games impact 100 meters medal failure, other competitions only the World Championships slightly highlighted the identity, won osaka, Berlin world championships two bronze medals, Bolt, Gatlin, Blake have the Olympic World Championship gold medal / medal into the account, Guy and Powell did not have Olympic medals in the account, Guy had a brilliant scene in the World Championships, Osaka World Championships to get gold medals, in comparison, Powell can be called the most tragic flyer, had to let people have both bright He Shengyu sigh.
