Noah Lyles: Olympic Champion onꦛ the Hunt for a Reco🅰rd

Following the end of Usain Bolt's career, athletics is on the lookout for a new hero to fill the gap left by the Jamaican. Noah Lyles is self-confident and eager to attack: ahead of the Tokyo Olympics, he saꦉys his goal is clearly to win gold in the 100 and 200 meters. He also believes that Bolt's world record for both distances can be beaten. But things turned out differently - Lyles did not qualify for the Olympics in the 100m and only won bronze in the 200m. After the Tokyo Games, Lyles continued to work on his dreams and is getting closer and closer to them: Lyles narrowly won gold in 𒀰the 100m at the 2024 Olympics in Paris - but Usain Bolt's world record still stands. However, it doesn't seem impossible that Lyles could claim it for himself. However, his collection of titles is already impressive:

  • Olympic champion 2024 (100m)
  • Olympic bronze medalist 2020 (200m)
  • 6x World ওChampionship gold (100m, 3x 200m, 2x 4x100m)
  • 4x winner in the Diamond League finals (200m)
