Wu Yanni has made history again! made the best record in the 100-meter hurdles of the Chinese Olympic Games, and became the only female athlete to score 13 seconds

In the women's 100-meter hurdles preliminaries of the Paris Olympics track and field that ended on August 7, Beijing time, Chinese star Wu Yanni ran a time of 12.97 seconds, slightly behind her best time of 12.74 seconds. But despite this, Wu Yanni still made history.

Wu Yanni played in Group 1 in the preliminaries, and her group can be called the "Group of Death". In this group is Japan's Mako Fukube, who ran 12.69 seconds just last month; There is the world record (12.12 seconds) holder, Amsan of Nigeria; There is United States star Alesha Johnson, who ran 12.31 seconds this year. This invisibly put a lot of pressure on her.

Sure enough, after the starting gun went off, Wu Yanni had a reaction time of 0.185 seconds and was at the bottom of the group. Although she is a late-stage player, she is at an absolute disadvantage at the start, making it difficult for her to catch up with her who is already in the "Group of Death". In the end, Amsang, Alessa Johnson and Jamaica's Brown finished in the top three of the group. It is worth noting that Wu Yanni was sandwiched in the middle by the top two in the group, and the world record holder on the right was sandwiched between the two kings, which directly caused Wu Yanni's rhythm to be completely disrupted.

In fact, this is not the first time that Wu Yanni has been influenced by world-class players. In the previous two times this year, she participated in the Diamond League in Xiamen and Suzhou, and all the world's top players participated, but Wu Yanni did not run into 13 seconds, and all of them were at the bottom. In the national competition and the competition held in Japan, only domestic and Asian players participated, and Wu Yanni set the best Asian result this year twice.

In the end, Wu Yanni ranked 6th in the group. The time was 12.97 seconds. If you don't qualify directly, you will participate in the repechage, which will be played at 16:35 on the 8th.

However, despite the unsatisfactory performance, Wu Yanni still made history.Her 12.97 seconds is the best Olympic record in the Chinese women's 100m hurdles. What's more, she is the first and only Chinese person to run 13 seconds at the Olympics in this event.
