Months after he advised NBA winners to cease referring to themselves as world champions, Noah Lyles became the “World’s Fastest Man” after winning the 100-meter sprint.
The athlete recently won the men’s 100-meter race in a nail-biting finish, only missing out on the gold medal by.005 seconds over Kishane Thompson of Jamaica.
Actually, the race was so close that the announcers first said Thompson had won… until the picture finish disproved it.
Given NL’s involvement in the X beef scandal last year, Lyles’ victory is even the more significant since he not only wins the gold but also the unofficial title of ”
World’s Fastest Man”—bestowed upon the winner of the 100-meter event at the Olympics. Just so you know, last year Lyles won three gold medals at the global Athletic Games in Budapest.
