The Tokyo Olympics kick off in July, and track and field athletes from all over Europe are making the final warm-up for the Games. Germany's Vettel has once again tossed more than 92 meters, and he is already a big hit in the men's javelin event. Other European stars have also performed well on the field.
In an athletics race in Lucerne, Switzerland, Vettel threw a set of 89.19m in the first round, and he improved it to 92.14m in the second round. The 2017 World Championship champion threw 91m39 in the third round and then chose to withdraw early. A time of 92.14 was enough to secure Vettel the title, with London 2012 Gold medalist, Trinidad and Tobago's Wolcott finishing second with 85.16m and Germany's Weber finishing third with 84.85m.
Just from the results, it can be seen that Vettel's strength is significantly higher than other opponents, and his performance beyond 90 meters is completely not in the same order of magnitude as others. Vettel has thrown more than 91m in 7 races this season, and he threw a good set of 96m29 at the European Team Championship, which is the best result in the world this year. In the men's javelin event this season, the second-placed in the world is Poland's Krukowski, whose time is 89m 55, and Wolcott is in third place with 89m 12. While other athletes can't even reach the 90m, Vettel has already surpassed 91m in 7 events and is an absolute gold medalist in the Men's Javelin event at the Olympics. At the Olympic Games, what people are looking forward to is whether Vettel can make a breakthrough in the Olympic Games to impact the world record for the men's javelin.
In the women's javelin competition, defending European champion Hasson won the title with 64 meters 02, the third time in her career that she won at Lucerne. In this competition, Hasson scored more than 60 meters in five places, and she is also a strong contender for the Olympic women's javelin title. Lu Huihui has been looking forward to a breakthrough in the Olympic women's javelin event, but after the Olympic Games were postponed for a year, the opponents of luhui have grown, and Hasson is a big opponent for her to impact the good results.
World record holder van Nikek in the men's 400m won the title in 44.87 seconds, his second 45 seconds this year. Earlier this year in Madrid, Van Nikek ran 44.56 seconds, and his goal at the Olympics is still to attack the gold medal.
In an athletics match in Poland, Polish women's chainball star Verodacsk returned from injury and threw a good result of 75 meters 83 in the first round. In the second round, Verodatsk threw another 77m93, and then her performance stabilized in the range of 75m-76m, and she finally won the championship with 77m93. Copron finished second with 75m 41.
Verodatsk, a two-time winner at the London 2012 Olympics and Rio 2016, will face a strong onslaught from American star Price at the Tokyo Olympics, and at the U.S. Olympic Athletics Trials held at the end of last month, Price won the championship with 80 meters 31, and the two top stars will certainly have a fierce competition at the Olympic Games.
Four-time world champion Fajdeck, who threw a time of 82.77 metres in the men's chain ball competition, set a new club record and won the title. Fajdek's best time this year was 82.98 meters, which was thrown in May, and the American Winkler threw 82.71 meters at the Olympic trials, and he will be a strong opponent of Faydek's attack on the Olympic gold medal. Another Polish player, Nowitzki, who threw 80m86 this year, threw 80m in the final round of this tournament, and he finished second.
