Yagi, a promising contender in the men's 100-meter sprint, faces a challenging path to represent Japan in the Track and Field World Championships. Despite Yagi's impressive victories, he finds making the World Championship delegation a tough climb due to the fiercely competitive selection process in Japan. The final decision regarding the team is slated for the coming weeks, keeping fans on edge.

Track and Field is a highly competitive sport in Japan, with immense public interest and scrutiny. The national selection process is rigorous, even for accomplished athletes like Yagi, reflecting the high standards and expectations set by Japan for its representatives in international championships.

Similar to Japan, countries like the U.S. and those in the EU have stringent selection procedures for global sports events. The process often attracts public interest and media attention. However, the level of competition varies, with some sectors arguing that Japan's strict standards emphasizes performance under pressure.
