2nd place after Barsim and blood clot... Woo Sang-hyuk challenges for Olympic gold in July 2M37 and August
Focus on physical strength and strength training until April to enter the top ranks at the Doha Games, where many of the world's top jumpers participated.
“I am confident that my record will improve once I regain my sense of the game.”
Mutaz Essa Barsim (32, Qatar) showed off his prowess as the ‘best active jumper’ in a competition he planned. 온라인카지노사이트
The player who made Barsim nervous until the end was Korea's Woo Sang-hyuk (28, Yongin City Hall).
Woo Sang-hyuk surpassed 2m31 and took second place in the What Gravity Challenge, a single track and field men's high jump competition held at the Katara Amphitheater in Doha, Qatar, on the 9th (local time).
Barsim's record was also 2m31.
However, Barsim cleared 2m31 in the first period, and Woo Sang-hyuk crossed it in the third period, dividing first and second places.
Unfortunately, I missed out on winning, but I also gained some income.
Kim Do-gyun, the vertical leap coach of the Korean national track and field team, who watched the game in Doha, said in a phone call with Yonhap News, "Both the athlete and I are not satisfied with today's performance.
However, it is meaningful that we maintained the top rank in a competition where many top athletes participated" said.
Barsim planned an international single event men's high jump event with the Qatar Athletics Federation and gathered 12 active top jumpers.
Gianmarco Tamberg (Italy), who co-won Mutaz Essa Barsim at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics held in 2021, is not yet in perfect condition, so Marco Pasiniti (Italy) competed in his place, but all active top jumpers except Tamberg are Barshim.
I participated in this competition in response to Sim’s invitation.
The list of participants in the What Gravity Challenge was so spectacular that it could be compared to the 'Olympic Finals'.
Woo Sang-hyuk stood out among them.
Juvon Harrison, who took second place at last year's Budapest World Championships, took third place with 2m 28.
On this day, Woo Sang-hyuk and Harrison failed at 2m31 in the first and second periods and were cornered, but Woo Sang-hyuk crossed the bar in the third period and Harrison failed.
Hamish Kerr (New Zealand), who holds the best record this season (2m 36), was blocked by the 2m 28 barrier and remained in 4th place (2m 25).
