Rohan Browning wins 100m high temperature, terrible warning

In the event that the Olympic dream was shattered in a few seconds, Rohan Browning dealt with the high temperature in his first Olympic Games and sent a message to the rest of the world.

“I hope I have caught some people’s attention now,” the track star said after winning the 100m preliminaries and qualifying for the semi-finals.

Browning completed his personal best time in 0.04 seconds and recorded an amazing time of 10.01 seconds. There were not many Australian supporters sitting near the corner about 50m from the finish line but their voices were loud. He gave They brought boisterous cheers to celebrate the wave.

The eloquent 23-year-old boy band looks handsome and flew past the field where former world champion Yohan Blake (Yohan Blake) was. He joined Usain Bolt as a member of the Jamaican relay team. Won the gold medal.

Since Joshua Ross (Joshua Ross) in 2004, Australia has not had a male athlete cheering for him in the Blue Belt at the Olympics. But Saturday night is worth the wait for 17 years.

Browning’s start was electric, and his endurance speed in the second half of the race meant that he would never be caught. As the losers of events traditionally dominated by North American and Caribbean countries, they will achieve excess achievements by reaching the finals. The ambition of the Sydneysider is far greater than the ambition of those who are criticized in public by those outside his inner secret room.

Browning put on a mask when facing a group of Australian journalists in the Tokyo Olympic Stadium, making a joke for many people who were blocked from watching him on TV at home.

“It feels so good. If I can take one thing away from it, it is Australia, don’t participate in anti-vaccine protests, stay at home, and avoid disadvantaged groups at the Olympics,” he said.

Browning can beat the sprint legend Blake, but the Jamaican is not the only superstar on the Australian self-proclaimed “hit list.” He wants them, and he is likely to get them.

The American Trayvon Bromell has the fastest time in the world this year (9.77 seconds) and is a popular candidate to win gold before the Olympics, but he stammered in his heat and finished fourth in 10.05 seconds, barely entering the half. finals. At the same time, Ronnie Baker, the second fastest qualifier in the United States, crossed the finish line in 10.03 seconds.

Browning is very good. He now has the fastest time an Australian has at the Olympics, even faster than Matt Silverton’s astonishing 10.03 at the 1998 Commonwealth Games.

One question mark for Browning’s trip to Tokyo was how he would deal with the bright lights of the world’s most prestigious international competition when he was restricted to training and competition in Australia due to the pandemic in the past 18 months.

In the Olympic warm-up match held in Keynes, the shots of him surpassing his opponent by 20 million may look beautiful, but they do not tell the full story of your true travel. Browning and the big dog of the world sprint abandoned any doubts about his pedigree, and the wild thing is that as long as he ran fast, the young gun didn’t even do everything well.

Rather than worry about anything, his hiccups in the game will only make Browning more confident that he is ready to shine on the biggest stage, because he issued a terrible warning to his competitors before the semifinals.

“I have more things to get rid of. I can definitely be pushed further,” Browning said. “This is one thing I have always lacked in the Australian Tour. When they said I could not make the finals or perform well in this Olympics, many people pointed it out. So it’s nice to prove that people are wrong.

“I feel that all the components of (my race) are there, but I haven’t put them together yet, I still feel like I don’t.

“I feel like I left there and really lost my mechanic. Having said that, I still ran away. So it makes me confident about going to the semi-finals and finals.”

Become the second Australian to break the 10-second barrier earlier this year after Patrick Johnson. Although his 9.96 seconds was not registered as an illegal wind aid for official time, at least Browning will be noticed for him Some of its competitors. But Australia has not really enjoyed the reputation of being a sprint power in this century, so it is likely that his face has not been registered on the many athletes who walked out next to him.

Former Australian Olympian Tamsin Manu certainly didn’t think Browning would attract too much side-view before the game-but after he hit the afterburner in the first lane, everything changed.

“We have sprinters!” Manou said in a comment on Channel 7.

“Yohan Blake has already seen it, do you know what he thinks? “Who is that in the first lane? I was beaten by an Australian? Yes, you have, Yohan Black! “

Browning believes he can run faster in the next game, and he is working hard to ensure that more people know his name when the gold medal game starts.
