Day 14 of
the Tokyo 2020 Olympics is underway. Let’s review some iconic moments.
Olympic high jumpers decide to share gold.
“He looked at me, I looked at him. We just
understood that it was no need to go. That’s it. It wasn’t even a question.
This is also beyond sport. This is a true sportsmanship, and this is a message
we delivered to the young generation.” – said by Barshim Mutaz Essa, Qatari
high jumper
“It was just amazing and sharing with a
friend is even more beautiful.”—said by Gianmarco Tamberi, Italian high jumper
Both of them competing for Italy and Qatar
decided against settling their tie, opting to be co-champions and share the
gold medal. The pair happen to be long-time friends. “Together” is a new
inclusion of Olympic motto to recognize the importance of solidarity. Barshim
and Gianmarco show it to the world in a perfect way.
China’s sprinter Su Bingtian makes history
in men’s 100m final.
Su Bingtian set a new Asian record of 9.83
seconds in men’s 100 meter final. He is a miracle of the entire Asia! The pride
of all of Asia with his record-breaking achievement.
“I ran out of my energy in the semifinal.
Finishing the final under 10 seconds is not an easy thing for me. I hope my
performance today can inspire younger athletes to keep pushing forward with
their sporting careers” – Su Bingtian, Chinese sprinter
31-year-old Su was the first Asian athlete
to reach the Olympic 100 meters final who broke the 10-second barrier. He paid
a lot for it. Su finished sixth in the final, however, he still shines for
history books.
