ATHLETICS: Noah Lyles reveals how he won 100m gold in Budapest even before the final
World 100m champion Lyles has explained how his victory at the 2023 World Championships was cooked way before the final
In his latest tweet, Lyles said: “I hope you all ready for fireworks at Prefontaine Classic.”
Lyles has been unbeaten so far this season in both the 100m and 200m and extending the hot streak will be his target. He will only be competing in the 100m where he will lock horns with familiar opponents.
He will be up against Africa’s fastest man Ferdinand Omanyala who will be seeking to end his season on a high. Lyles has defeated Omanyala in all the races they have competed in and the American will be looking to repeat the same sequence.

FOOTBALL: US-born Kenyan defender's Harambee Stars dream meets unexpected feedback
Kenyan footballer Nabilai Kibunguchy's national team aspirations get candid advice from coach Firat.
It all started at the Diamond League Meeting in Paris, France where Omanyala finished second behind Lyles, and then at the World Championships in Budapest, Hungary where Lyles won as Omanyala finished seventh.
Another athlete to be wary of is World 100m silver medallist Letsile Tebogo from Botswana. Tebogo finished in the podium bracket in both the 100m and 200m in the Hungarian capital and he will be looking to maintain the consistency as he ends his track season.
Other Americans, Christian Coleman and Marvin Bracy-Williams will also be in the mix hoping to shine on home soil.
