Shuhei Tada, who was appointed as the representative of the Tokyo Olympics in the men's 100 meters on land, held a press conference and stated his enthusiasm, saying, "I want to advance to the final in the 100 meters and win the gold medal in the 400 meters relay."
Tada, who is 6th in Japan's history and has a personal best of 10 seconds 01, won the Japan Championship for the first time last month, which was the Olympic representative selection, and was appointed as the representative for the first time.
Tada, who had an online press conference on the 5th, said, "I am very happy to be appointed as a representative. I was happy that I was finally able to win the championship because I was 5th in the Japan Championships for 3 consecutive years." I looked back.
And for the first Olympics, "If you get too nervous like the Japan Championships, it will be hard to move, so I think that having fun while being nervous will lead to your maximum performance. I want to enjoy it as a challenger. I said.
As for specific goals, he said, "I've always aimed to advance to the finals in individual events, so I want to put out 100% of my strength in the semi-finals. And I want to put out the 9-second range and go to the finals." I was there.
Regarding the men's 400m relay, which is expected to win a gold medal, he said, "I think I will probably be one run, so I want to make a good start and make a flow for the team so that I can win the gold medal."
