[Liu Xiang, Eugene Station, led 13 Chinese players to participate in the competition and fought against four major rivals at 03:03 on the 3rd.]
The 2012 IAAF Diamond League Eugene Station was held at the University of Oregon Hayward Track and Field on June 2. The Flower Planters of this site sent a 13-man lineup led by Liu Xiang to participate. Among them, the most popular 110-meter hurdles, Liu Xiang will compete with four masters, Roberts, Oliver, Merritt and Richardson.
This site is the fourth stop of the Diamond League this year, with 24 events, including 16 events in the Diamond League, 9 events in men and 7 events in women. The competition was completed in 2 days, and the venue was selected at the University of Oregon Hayward Track and Field Field. After the Magic City Station and Rome Station, my country continued to send players to participate in the competition.
On the first day, June 1, US time, and June 2, Beijing time, it took the lead in eight events, among which the men's triple jump and women's discus are diamond events, and my country's track and field teams are played by Li Yanshi and Ma Xue respectively; although women's hammer is not a diamond event, he is the first event to start on this site. Zhang Wenxiu, who just broke the Asian record for the 9th time in Germany, will participate, and her opponent is still the German star Heidler.
On the second day, 16 events were held, including 14 diamond events. The most popular ones were undoubtedly the men's 110-meter hurdles. Liu Xiang, Robles, Oliver, Merritt, and Richardson. The five most powerful players gathered today and will present a peak showdown for everyone. At the same time, this will be the first preview of the London Olympics. Zheng Xingjuan will participate in the women's high jump competition. The competition with her is the champion of the Daegu World Championships last year, the famous Russian player Chichelova and the German gay female player Fredrich; Lu Minjia participated in the women's long jump competition. Her opponents include the host player, two-time World Championships and indoor World Championships champion Rise.
In addition, it is Eugene's finale event over the years. The 100-meter FIVE MAN Fighter Battle, and Chinese players will be led by Su Shen to participate.

The official website of the Eugene Diamond League described it in the 110-meter hurdles report as follows: "Which event in this year's Eugene Station is the most enjoyable and inspires the audience's enthusiasm? Of course, it is the men's 110-meter hurdles. At the starting line of this newly renovated University of Oregon's Hayward Track and Field Field, the five fastest running people in the world's high hurdles will gather together to perform speed and passion."
In the roster, Liu Xiang, Robles, Oliver, Richardson and Merritt are among the five superstars, plus the addition of 110-meter hurdles at the Daegu World Championships last year and the silver medalist Eaton, the decathlon winner... It can be said that this is not only a replica of the final of the Daegu World Championships last year, but also to a certain extent, it is likely to be a preview of the London Olympic final.
The results of the Kawasaki Grand Prix and Diamond League Magic City Station not long ago have proved that Xiangfeiren's seven-step attack first column have become more and more perfect, and his outstanding sense of rhythm is still the "trump card" that disrupts the opponent. However, these five masters are too close to each other, and no one can predict who will become the king after 13 seconds of flash. Not to mention the distance, in the Eugene Station competition last year, when Liu Xiang had already achieved a valuable result, Oliver won the championship with a better 12.94 seconds. Before the 2008 Olympics, Liu Xiang was sent off for rushing to the Eugene Championship...
Fortunately, Eugene brought more happy memories to Liu Xiang and accompanied him in his growth.
When Liu Xiang was first invited to participate in the competition, he defeated seven other American players, including Alan Johnson, Arnold, and Tramel. In 2006, Liu Xiang defeated Dukure, Alan Johnson and Oliver. In 2007, Liu Xiang defeated Moore by a slight difference and won the third championship. This time, whether he can restore his former style in the battle of Tianwang Mountain depends on the next game.
American track and field coach Lan Anna said before the game: This may be the most valuable high-seat competition in the world. Just like the Daegu World Championships, it would be incredible without a big fight.
[Liu Xiang's normal running Sun Haiping for injury prevention: The competition will definitely be very intense.]
This time, the Eugene Station competition is no more masters, and they are regarded as a preview of the men's 110-meter hurdles final by the outside world. However, recently, Sun Haiping, who has always reminded Liu Xiang to run, still seems very calm: "Axiang just keeps calm and works hard to perform. You can treat the Eugene Station as a high-intensity training class. The most important thing is to pay attention to preventing injuries and diseases."
Sun Haiping said that after the Magic City Station competition on the 19th, Liu Xiang's training condition was maintained well. Although the training intensity had been strengthened, his condition was maintained well and he was ready for the game.
"The first-class experts will come this time, and the competition will definitely be very fierce. It will be exciting for every athlete and will make everyone very excited. Everyone is prone to excitement and want to defeat their opponents." Sun Haiping said yesterday, "This is a good opportunity to test the recent training results and a good opportunity to examine Olympic opponents. But Liu Xiang is an old athlete. He knows how to control his emotions and regulate his own rhythm to deal with the competition."
"Although we arrived at the race track four days in advance this time, the fatigue and jet lag of long-distance flights are not so easy to eliminate, and will more or less affect Liu Xiang's physical condition. In addition, we must also consider the weather conditions, especially the wind direction. If it is headwind, the results will be difficult to say."
"After the Eugene Station competition, we will go back to China to adjust our training and prepare for the London Station Diamond League held from July 13 to 14 and the subsequent London Olympics."
Just as the entire Ome media was warming up for this Eugene battle, suddenly, as it was approaching the early morning that night, a news came over, catching everyone off guard.

[Robers may miss the peak duel between Eugene Station and may be interrupted due to a visa dream.]
According to Reuters, Robles may miss the 110-meter hurdles race at Eugene Station because he has not obtained a visa for a long time.
This is Robes' first time to go to the United States to participate in the competition. The Eugene Station is also regarded as a preview of the Olympic 110-meter hurdles final. Robes was originally planning to fly to Eugene this Wednesday and then have a good rest, but the visa issue may make him miss the Eugene Station competition. Robes originally wanted to show his skills in the Diamond League of Eugene Station, because Eugene Station is a very important warm-up opportunity before the Olympics. According to his coach, Robes and his coaching team have made this Eugene trip impossible due to visa reasons.
"We can't compete in the Eugene Station anymore. Although the trip was delayed, Robles is still one of the eight fastest-runners in the world," said his coach Santiyago.
Robles originally wanted to show off his skills at the Eugene Station on June 2, but the visa issue led to a conflict of time. Even if the visa was passed before this, they would not have arrived in the United States before the game. His coach said. Robles's coach Santiyago mentioned that it was a very regrettable for Robles to not participate, because this competition has the fastest hurdle masters in the world.
Robles hopes to participate in the New York Grand Prix on June 9.
See this news from Reuters.
Liu Xiang was also a little confused.
He never expected that Robles would not come, so he would not come.
He also made a preview of this Olympic Games, and before the Olympic Games, he would defeat all potential enemies and establish his invincible momentum to London.
Now there is only one Robles.
If you say you don’t come, you won’t come?
As for the visa issue, that's nonsense. As a top athlete in the event, the entire itinerary is planned by someone. Moreover, the Diamond League Eugene Station is also a preview of the large-scale competitions in previous years. How could it be possible not to prepare in advance?
Just like Su Shen Liu Xiang and the others got this matter early.
They can't even manage this by themselves, but most people will help them deal with it.
So this question can only be missed by outsiders, and insiders sound like a complete joke.
"You're right. Roberts hasn't fought with famous players this year. This is the best opportunity. Will he... not come?" After Liu Xiang saw it, he asked the team to confirm it several times. After hearing the Xiang team member who was responsible for external communication, he repeatedly confirmed that Roberts was not coming, he was stunned for a long time...
I always feel like I hold my breath, but the main owner doesn't come.
"Forget it, if he doesn't come, don't come." Sun Haiping said first: "Let's just run our own."
"And since he doesn't come, he's sure there's something wrong with that."
"It seems that the complaints and injuries that happened some time ago are very likely to be true. It is because of the poor condition that I don't want to play at all."
"Are you injured?" Liu Xiang suddenly felt a little moved when he heard this. Roberts was so much younger than himself, but he was also trapped in this now?
For professional athletes, it's really... the injuries are as fierce as tigers.
If he doesn't come, Liu Xiang's duel pressure will suddenly be much lower. In his state in the Magic City, except Oliver, there is probably no one who can create a threat. Richardson or Merritt, let's talk about it first for thirteen seconds.
Liu Xiang just shook his head slightly, and then said that he was tired and went to bed early.
What's tired.
The main thing is to be tired.
If Robles doesn't come, he has no place to use his energy.
Sun Haiping's idea is to stand from the perspective of coaches and teams. He believes that Robles will not come, which is a good thing.
It means it's really in bad condition.
Or really trapped by injuries.
Otherwise, the Olympics will be approaching and it will not be so incomparable.
He had seen the status of most people this year, but only one Robles was not sure.
It's also the most threatening one.
The defending champion after all.
In fact, Sun Haiping was really scared at the beginning, and it was the smoke bomb on the other side.
Intentional paralysis.
This kind of thing is not once or twice in the track and field industry.
But now, it shouldn't be.
Then if Roberts is not in shape, Liu Xiang has a great chance of winning the championship this year.
It can even be said to soar suddenly.
The IAAF and major sports websites, which responded in a timely manner, all raised Liu Xiang's probability of winning the championship after receiving the 110-meter hurdles in this year's Olympic Games.
It became the biggest hit in an instant.
None of them.
At this time, in the hotel where everyone is staying, Zhao Haohuan saw the news that Roberts was not coming on TV, and turned his head as soon as he looked at Su Shen who was drinking water calmly beside him, and said in surprise:
"I'll go."
"I really won't come."
"You guy is so amazing."
"Then I'm really hurt like this, and I haven't recovered. Brother Xiang... is stable this year."
The excited expression on Zhao Haohuan's face was no less than that he won the Daegu bronze medal himself.
I sincerely hope that Liu Xiang will have more of his own things this year.
Only Su Shen did not answer Zhao Haohuan's words as soon as possible.
Instead, I watched TV and murmured:
"Are you stable?"
"I hope so."
Chapter completed!
