Tokyo 2020, the blue athletics dreams: Jacobs flies, Tortu and Randazzo advance

A flash, to illuminate the national stadium. The wait in Tokyo 2020 ends in the best possible way. Marcell Jacobs is unleashed in the 100m Olympic battery. It prints a sensational 9.94, files a cent to its Italian record (achieved in Savona on May 13 this year) and opens scenarios so far only dreamed of. A royal action, powerful, but at the same time reactive, with feet that explode on the ground, and a final part without particular anxieties or tensions, relaxed, practically in neutral. But what Jacobs we saw, in the Tokyo evening! A rocket, complimented after the race by sprinters from all over the world, thanks to ‘bro’, ‘man’ and ‘good job’. And to say that the match from Brescia, in some details, did not seem perfect. Read also The start, in particular, did not appear that of Torun, where, last March, he won the European gold of 60m indoor; but once set in motion, this is a machine that becomes unstoppable. In his heats, the runner-up (Jamaican Seville, 10.04) takes a meter, the others about a couple. And to make the Japanese evening magnificent, there is also the qualification of a rediscovered Filippo Tortu, author of a 10.10 (0.6) which guarantees the passage of the round to the semifinals, and which represents his best time in 2021. The Milanese is lined up at the start of a difficult heat, made even more complicated by two false starts (a first not assigned, a second that cost the Nigerian Oduduru the Olympics). The Canadian De Grasse wins it, who as a fine psychologist chooses to send disturbing messages to his opponents (Americans in primis), running in 9.91, best time of the round right in front of Jacobs. Pippo is in the first lane, and next to him the second is empty: the worst condition for a sprinter. He does not lose heart, reacts, fights, dives as usual on the finish line, and harpoons the ticket for the semifinal with the second of recovery time (even the American Bromell is forced to use it, author of an unexpected 10.05). An extraordinary confidence boost. Round 2 will start with two Azzurri: it will be fun. In four, on balance, they drop below 10 seconds: in addition to De Grasse and Jacobs, the American Fred Kerley (9.97) and the Nigerian Enoch Adegoke (9.97) succeed. The last of the recovery times is 10.12 of the British Prescod. Appointment tomorrow, at 12.15 Italian time, 19.15 Tokyo time. For those who will make it, new round, the decisive one, at 14.50 (21.50 in Tokyo). Guaranteed entertainment. Even the qualifications of the men’s long are exulting. Filippo Randazzo draws a perfect parable and lands at 8.10 (0.3), just five centimeters from the 8.15 required for direct qualification, and two from the staff, the 8.12 centered in Savona in last year’s edition of the Ligurian meeting. The Cuban Juan Miguel Echevarria exaggerates: at the first jump he makes 8.50 (0.2), brutally archiving the qualifying practice. And in fact the speech ends immediately, beautifully, even with a funny curtain, which brings us back to athletics 1.0: the display does not show the Sicilian’s measure, and then he goes to the jury table to read the data, rejoices, and communicates it to the blue staff in the stands. Then, for the Italian, little else: a null, and a sacrosanct renunciation to make the third and last attempt. The list of qualified, after Echevarria, sees six other athletes in 15 centimeters, from the Greek Tentoglu (8.22) to the Cuban Massò, 8.07, passing through Randazzo’s 8.10. It seems a scenario open to any evolution. A thriller, whose culprits, in the form of medalists, will be revealed at the end of the final on Monday 2 August, scheduled for the Italian night (away at 3:20). Anna Bongiorni’s beautiful adventure in the 100s ends in the semifinals. The blue fights with pride, but can do nothing against opponents of a higher level. His 11.38 (0.3) was absolutely honorable, but ahead of us we take a different step. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, unleashed, scores the best result of the round, a photonic 10.73, whose value is increased by the visible final disengagement. The Swiss Mujinga Kambundji is second in 10.96, while the American Theanna Daniels (10.98) and the British Daryll Neita (11.00) win the final with recovery times. The mix between the importance of the stakes, the preparation of the athletes, and a highly performing track, determines dizzying numbers in all three semifinals. In the first (zero wind) Elaine Thompson is regal: her 10.76, with at least eight-nine final supports in absolute relaxation, promises an impressive finish. Behind her, the Swiss Del Ponte mocked the British Dina Asher-Smith (11.01 against 11.05), blowing her the useful place for the promotion. In the second, the battle between the Ivorian Marie-Jose Ta Lou and the Jamaican Shericka Jackson sees the first prevail by a thousandth difference: both are in fact credited with an excellent 10.79 (-0.2). Final today: appointment at 2:10 pm. Elena Bellò tries them all, but as happened for Anna Bongiorni in the 100, her semifinal of the 800 meters, conquered with a judicious battery, is an inevitable dead end. The result is a substantially tactical proof (passage in 1: 01.6 at mid-race), which when it lights up, leaves no chance for the blue. Her 2: 02.35, with a strong-willed ending (battle with the Norwegian Hynne, beaten, and the Polish Jozwik, finished in front for only 3 cents) demonstrates the character of this girl, who has grown considerably in the course of 2021. Best access time trial at the final that of the US Athing Mu, 1: 58.07; last recovery time, 1: 59.28 by the American Roger. Three medals awarded on the Tokyo evening. The first is that of the men’s disc, which ends at the neck of the favorite of the eve, the Swede Daniel Stahl. His best throw is measured at 68.90, more than one and a half meters above that of the second classified, compatriot Petterson, 67.39, while the bronze goes to the Austrian Heisswaidinger, 67.07. Second title of the evening that goes to Poland, surprising winner of the 4×400 mixed relay: beats Dominican Republic (3: 10.21) and United States (3: 10.22). In closing, a show in the women’s 100 meters, dominated by Jamaican women. Their hat-trick is signed by Elaine Thompson-Herah (10.61, wind -0.6), Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (10.74), and Shericka Jackson (10.76). The Ivorian Marie-Jose Ta lou is off the podium with 10.91, the Swiss Dal Ponte (10.97) and Kambundji (10.99) are fifth and sixth respectively.
