Slovak sprinter Ján Volko believes that after being disappointed by the 100-meter run, he will regain his appetite on a double track. Watch ONLINE broadcast from men’s starts at 200 meters on ŠPORT.sk!
The second run was dominated by Jereem Richards with a time of 20.52 s. Ján Volko took fifth place with a time of 21.21 s. and did not advance to the semifinals.
–
In the first run, Jamaican Rasheed Dwyer dominated, reaching a time of 20.31 s.

Only one medalist from Rio in this discipline, Andre de Grasse from Canada, will perform in Tokyo and will defend silver. He managed to defend the bronze in the hundred, even though he felt he had a chance to win. The big motivation for de Grass is the Olympic gold from the double track and we will watch the Canadian favorite in the third run.

Volko reached the seasonal maximum in Šamorín with a time of 20.62 seconds, which is 38 hundredths worse than the personal record, so even the form of the Slovak sprinter is not revolutionary. Coincidentally, the Dutch sprinter Taymir Burnet has the same best time of the season in the second run, so in theory Volko could beat him as well, but it will also be a difficult task.
–
Advancing to the semifinals for Volka would be a miracle, because the company in the second run is full and the only one he should really beat is Jan Jirka, otherwise we can expect a duel of the remaining five runners for three places to the semifinals. But probably the biggest favorites are Jereem Richards from Trinidad and Tobago, who should be chased by Sani Brown from Japan, Maswanganyi from the Republic of South Africa and Colombian Baloyes.
–
We will see 50 runners in seven runs, from which we will find 24 names that will be presented in the semi-final phase. The first three will advance from each start, so 21 athletes will be sure and the remaining three will advance according to time. Ján Volko will run in the second start, in which the Czech representative Jan Jirka will also be his opponent.

Welcome to watching one of the most watched athletic disciplines, which is two hundred men, and the fastest Slovak sprinter Ján Volko will want to fight for the semifinals. He is disappointed, because in the royal discipline he ran only 10.4 seconds for a hundred meters, so he finished in 46th place, but mainly he could not improve his seasonal maximum and Volka was most sorry. In the 200, 24-year-old Volko is even the European champion under 23 from 2017, when he won with a time of 20.33 seconds. However, this is not his personal record, because he created it on a two hundred meter track a year later in Trnava, where he ran 20.24 seconds. In this discipline, he reached the semifinals at the World Championships in London, where he finally finished fifteenth and two places higher he placed at the European Championships in Berlin. so this may suggest slightly higher Volk’s ambitions than at the Hundred and the Tokyo Olympics.
