Noah Lyles Competes and Wins Despite Challenges

At the 200 meter turn of the men’s event, which Noah Lyles was competing in after winning the gold of the fastest man on Earth in the last 30 mins ago, Lyles was hit to bronze behind silver medalist Letsile Tebogo and teammate Kenny Bednarek both from the USA in Tokyo Olympics 2024. Letsile Tebogo became the first African man to win the 200m dash with the time of 19.46s. However, Noah Lyles from Team USA, who was diagnosed with COVID-19 on the eve of the race, was helped by medical consultants after the race. We have just learned that he tried to hide this information from his rivals to do his best for the competition. Noah Lyles from the USA, who managed to win the gold medal, was barely able to beat 24-year-old Kishane Thompson from Jamaica with a time of 10.58, which was the first time an American won the gold medal in 100m dash after Justin Gatlin won in 2004.

After winning the 18th Olympic title, Lyles was planning a double in the 19th Olympics, which only Usain Bolt did in the history of Olympic Games. He arrived at the men’s 200 meter dash and won the gold after a 30-minute race to the fastest man on Earth. Yet Lyles narrowly failed to make history but he can not have a chance to take part in the 4*100 meter relay.
