On Sunday, April 10, 2022, in the men's 100m of the Intercontinental Tour Gold Label event in Bermuda, Canada's Jeremy Blake won the championship with a time of 10.38 seconds, Knighton and Lyles of the United States both finished second and third in 10.385 seconds, and Jamaica's Blake finished fourth with a time of 10.45 seconds.
The gold standard event Bermuda 100 meters race is a big surprise, the world gold standard event men's 100 meters champion only ran 10 seconds 38 seconds, even ten seconds did not break through is really unexpected, compared to the previous world-class gold standard event Performance this level is really low, and this competition Jamaican player Blake burst out of the cold, in the face of such a level did not enter the top three, is this the level of Jamaican beast Blake? But Blake's past achievements are among the best in the world, what is the reason why Blake's level has dropped so much? Probably related to his injury, at the 2013 World Championships in Moscow, Blake withdrew from the Moscow World Championships due to a thigh strain, and the following year, in 2014, in the men's 100m of the IAAF Diamond League in Glasgow, Blake fell and withdrew due to injury. After these two injuries, Blake's results have never been as brilliant as they were, and the World Series has never been able to achieve the same brilliant results as before.
Not only Jamaican Blakes broke the cold, this time the Gold Label Tour is also a big cold, the first place is only 10.38 seconds, what specific reasons led to the sharp decline in the level of this competition, this is unknown, perhaps because of the epidemic in recent years? All in all, this Gold Label Tour has disappointed many track and field enthusiasts, after all, the level of this time is far less than before, so that many netizens not only sighed "Is the level of the 100-meter field of the world event so low?" "Vertically speaking, this result can be described as incomprehensible, although it is exaggerated, but the disappointment is overflowing.
I hope that after this, the athletes can work harder to break through themselves, rather than to mess up, and win honors for their own country and themselves while living up to the love of many track and field enthusiasts and the expectations and likes of track and field athletes. We all also sincerely hope that the World Series will become a stage to constantly challenge the limits of human beings.
