BUDAPEST : American sprinter Noah Lyles did some serious self-reflection after finishing third in the 200 metres at the Tokyo Olympics - it was his distance and he deserved to win, or so he thought.
"You take the win. And today I had to take that win again. Just because I won it two years in a row does not mean that it belongs to me." Lyles made a bold prediction he would run 19.10 in a recent Instagram post, which would have bettered Bolt's world record of 19.19, but his time was not even his best this season, just shy of the 19.47 he ran at the London Diamond League last month."Of course I wanted to be faster, or at least wanted to break the American record again," Lyles said of the 19.31 he ran to break Michael Johnson's U.S. record in winning last year's worlds in Eugene.
