?Doesn?t Matter…?: 4 Hours Before Diamond League Final, Noah Lyles Drops Absolute ?Track and Field? Shocker

With the Prefontaine Classic close at hand, track virtuoso Noah Lyles has pulled his socks up. Grappling a historic treble at the World Athletics Championship, the 26-year-old bid goodbye to this athletic year. Until he did not. With Christian Coleman’s incredible display at the Xiamen Diamond League, Lyles took back his words. Initially, he revealed his tired self and satiation after the World Championship win. Later, he clinched his 4th gold at the Zurich Diamond League. Yet, another gold awaits his soft touch at the upcoming Eugene Diamond League. But there’s a catch.

No matter what a prolific track and field artist Lyles is, he is very lucid about his priorities. For an athlete, gold at the World Championships holds the most significance alongside the Olympics. In line with this concept, Noah treats the other events as a celebratory parade.

Noah Lyles treats the other events as a victory lap

For Noah Lyles and Sha’Carri Richardson, 2023 has been a big year. Cruising to victory, Lyles proved himself worthy of the title, of standard-bearer. Winning doesn’t mean getting the hang of fanfare, disregarding work-life balance or health. For an athlete of such magnificence, the World Championships speak the loudest. In a post-event conference, the star athlete spoke forthrightly about his victory lap.

In a post of FloTrack in ‘X’, Noah said, “Every meet that happens after World Championships, I see them almost as a victory lap… It doesn’t matter if you win or lose now, because you’ve already won World Championships. Nobody can take that from you.” FloTrack captioned the post as “Noah Lyles calls Prefontaine his victory lap #EugeneDL.” Noah’s diction screams inspiration, while also implying that he is a man of principles.?

Coach Lance Brauman has prepped Noah for the long-desired closing ceremony. In the same video, the track and field star has also opened up about another magnificent sprinter, whom the entire nation roots for.

Track star speaks about Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone the Great

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, the American hurdler and sprinter, has captured everybody’s hearts with her stunning exhibits. Her forte being 400m hurdles, Levrone set 4 world records over the course of 13 months. Moreover, clinching the title of 2022 World Champion and 2020 Tokyo Olympic Champion, Sydney has proved her prowess time and again.

The 2022 World Athletics Female of the Year withdrew herself from the 2023 World Athletics Championship due to a minor knee injury. In spite of that, a winner is always a winner.

Owing to her finesse on track and humility as a person, track fans were disappointed. In the ‘X’ post of FloTrack, Noah Lyles spoke about girls questioning his mother, “Where is Sydney? Where is Sydney?”. This speaks volumes about how loved and praised Mclaughlin is, and fans have missed witnessing the sprinter on the field.

Lyles realized that with the wins, come responsibilities. After clinching his treble and another gold in the Zurich Diamond League, Noah is aiming for the top. Accompanying Sha’Carri at the press conference, the 26-year-old placed himself first and sensationalism second. Fans look forward to all the American sprinters making waves in the upcoming Diamond League which is just hours away.
