Chapter 171 Winter Olympics (4)(1/3)

Xie Anyuan's performance today was pretty good. Except for Axel's triple triple jump, which stumbled a bit when he landed on the ice, everything else was done well.

The final score was 103.22, currently ranking second, behind Gu Wang.

The next contestants are not particularly difficult. Neon Country does have two capable men's singles players. Among them, young player Hina Morishu is participating in the Olympics for the first time, but his performance today was particularly good. The entire short program was

He completed it without any mistakes and achieved his best result in history.

106.89 points!

Surpassed Xie Anyuan and ranked second.

Even his country's famous players don't have as high a score as him. It seems that this young player will have a place on the podium this year.

Time passed very quickly, and the men's singles short program came to an end in the blink of an eye. Joe Mick, a player from country M, appeared penultimately.

Among today's players, besides Gu Wang, he is the one with the highest voice.

It's quite a coincidence that one appears second from the top and one appears second from the bottom.

With the appearance of Joe Mick, the scene that had been immersed for a long time finally started to boil again.

Chen Xi and Gu Wang, who had been chatting and laughing, also looked serious.

Chomik's configuration in the short program is not inferior to that of Gu Wang, so as long as he doesn't make mistakes, the point difference between the two will not be big. It mainly depends on the free skate later.

Apart from anything else, Joe is also a respectable opponent.

He has been dominating the figure skating sport in recent years. Before Gu Wang came back, he was the most likely player to become the champion in this Olympics.

As the music started playing, the performance of Joe Mick's contestants officially began.

The structure of the short program is simpler than the free skate. There are only three groups of jumps, namely A jump, single jump and a combo jump.

Compared with the previous games, Joe Mick made adjustments this time.

He changed the first jump from around the hook to around the inside point, and there wasn't a big difference in points.

But because his jump combo changed to a higher level of four hooks and three outside points, his points were greatly increased!

Completed with zero mistakes, the final score was 113.87!

There is only 0.45 point difference between him and Gu Wang!

Joe Mick was probably not very satisfied with the score, and looked serious at the equal score table, but this result was also expected.

In the short program, the gap between him and Gu Wang is not big. Even though he has a slight advantage in difficulty, Gu Wang has a very difficult Axel triple jump and can get a very high execution score.

His performance ability, jumping and connection between programs are all so excellent that he cannot compare with them.

With 0.45 points, he didn't lose unfairly.

Just like this, the pressure in free skating will be greater.

Gu Wang has 4A.

As long as he successfully lands on the ice and doesn't make too many mistakes, the championship this time will probably be in his hands.

Joe Mick is under great pressure.

This is his last Olympics.

After leaving the scene and passing the interview area, Chomik left directly without accepting the interview.

The men's singles short program also came to an end.

Everyone left the scene with heavy hearts. Although Gu Wang ranked first in the short program, his score was not advantageous. If he made a mistake in the free skate, he would miss out on the championship.

Moreover, Gu Wang's 4A success rate is still low.

Only in the official competition, I landed perfectly once.

At this moment, he still had injuries on his feet and was under great pressure.

Chen Xi and Lu En went back to the hotel with him, and no one mentioned the competition on the way.

"What do you want to eat tonight?" Chen Xi smiled and said, "How about I cook it for you myself? I will reward you for a great day and completing the competition without making any mistakes!"

"Are you sure the food you cooked is edible?" A soul torture question from old coach Lu En.

Chen Xi muttered, "What? Although the food I cook is not as good as the five-star hotels outside, it's still pretty good!"

It's barely cooked enough to be eaten.

Lu En smiled and said, "I hope he will be better than free the day after tomorrow, so just let his stomach go."

"Okay." Chen Xi's tone was dull, but the next second she smiled crookedly: "Then when you finish the competition, I'll treat you to a big dinner!"

Gu Wang knew that these two people were creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere for him, so that he would not be so nervous and at the same time reduce the pressure in his heart.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, showing a nice curve: "Okay."

"..."

The fact that Gu Wang’s short program ranked No. 1 has been on the hot searches.

Joe Mick is not bad either, second only to Gu Wang, and the point difference is the lowest in history.

For a while, no one could guess who this year's Olympic champion would be.

At the same time, there is another young player from Neon Country who has also been trending among netizens.

At only 18 years old, he participated in the Olympics for the first time. He performed a difficult quadruple jump and performed stably, ranking third in the short program.

Although he is not comparable to the two seniors, it is not difficult to see that next season, he will be the new generation leader of figure skating.

The men's singles free skate will be held on the 10th.

Unlike the short program, the success of the free skate is determined by the short program score.

The higher the score, the lower the order of appearance. This will help players adjust themselves according to the actual situation of their opponents.

Gu Wang ranked first in the short program and will be the last to appear today. Joe Mick is in front of him, and third from the bottom is the youngster from Neon Country.

It can be said that the focus of the men's singles tonight is in the last group, and the further back, the more exciting it becomes.

The Olympic champion will also be born today.

The scene was extremely lively, and as far as the audience could see, there were zero empty seats.

Commentator K couldn't hide his excitement, and the curve of his mouth almost reached behind his ears, "Welcome to the sports channel, I am today's commentator K!"

"I'm so excited and nervous. Today is the last competition of men's single skating. The Olympic champion will be born in two hours. Who will win this honor? Let's wait and see!"

The ice surface was repaired and the participating athletes had arrived at the scene an hour ago.

The first group of players to take the field are already waiting outside the ice rink.

Chen Xi was sitting in the audience. She was not wearing a mask today, and she was not even putting on makeup. She was holding a support banner for Gu Wang and was just looking at the ice rink quietly.

Watching those high-spirited athletes stand on the biggest stage and fight for their dreams, even if the results are not that good, they have no regrets for trying their best.

No matter how many years have passed, she will still regret that she was not able to stand on the Olympics. Looking at the athletes rushing to the battlefield, she will inevitably have some envy and regret in her eyes.

Today, she is sitting here, not alone.

It’s not just one person.

She wishes all athletes to surpass their limits, break through themselves, leave their own traces on this ice, and do their best not to regret or let themselves down!

No matter what the outcome is, just try your best.

I also wish him a safe landing.

"..."

Compared with the short program, the atmosphere of the free skate is more tense.

Some athletes resist the pressure and complete their competition well. Even if they miss the medal, it is still a good result to refresh their own results and perform above average.

And some athletes, because they were too nervous, made mistakes in jumping, and their results were not so ideal. In the end, they still left regrets on this most proud ice surface.

Xie Yuan's free skate was very impressive. He performed exceptionally and completed the free skate without any mistakes, setting a new record in his own history.

Even if you don't get on the podium in the end, setting a personal record high in the Olympic Games is still a pride!

In the blink of an eye, the last group of athletes came on stage.

Prior to this, Xie Yuan's overall score had always been first.

An unprecedented proud smile appeared on his face.

Not everyone is lucky enough to participate in the Olympics, and not everyone can leave no regrets on this highest stage.

And Xie Yuan is the lucky one.

Regardless of his final ranking, he has no regrets in this Olympics.

Silently praying in my heart that everything goes well.

Gu Wang's performance during the six-minute warm-up was unremarkable. In addition to running circles, he did two common quadruple jumps and an Axel jump.

The whole person seems to be in good condition.

His expression was also serious.
