Upset Noah Lyles Makes Honest Confession About Olympics Trial’s Broadcasting Troubles

After notching several accolades in 2023, US sprinting star Noah Lyles continues with his triumphant streak in 2024. He clinched the silver medal at the World Athletics Indoor Championship 2024. Recently, Lyles made a social media post to accelerate the visibility of track and field, lagging critically behind other sports at the USATF for the 2024 Olympics Trials in Eugene, Oregon.  While he is pitching for its commercial presence, no information has been provided yet from the T&F authority.

Thus, the reigning 2023 World Champion, Noah Lyles, complained that the officials had not advertised the Olympic Trials in 2024. Soon after, he raised the concern, and it seems he got some support as well from many in the track and field community. But what did the Olympian say?

After noticing the lack of active presence by the track and field officials regarding the upcoming USATF Olympic trials and other major events, Noah Lyles, a six-time world champion, notified the track authorities through his X account. He captioned the post, “I haven’t see one commercial for the T&F Olympic trials. Is that just me?”

The 2024 US Track and Field Olympic Trials are set to take place from June 21 to June 30. For Team USA, it will be the qualifying event for the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024. Athletes have been preparing to chase their Olympic dreams. In this event, world record holders Christian Coleman and Noah Lyles will race against each other for that coveted spot in Team USA.

Like other athletes, track and field enthusiasts are also eager for the upcoming events. However, finding no latest details about the events seems to have puzzled the track world. Some of the track and field supporters joined Noah over the issue, showing what looks like their dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs.

A user expressed his exasperation at not finding the details of track events online. The fan commented, “Not only that it’s hard to find track events online that are scheduled to be in the US unless it’s the trials, Olympics or diamond league. Which will all be shown on peacock. All other track events are hard to find information for online.”

While another fan came forth to showcase his displeasure over the same issue, he/she wrote, “No, and it’s ridiculous! That said we just got our tickets today and we can’t wait! There’s no place better to watch world-class athletes than Hayward Field!”

In addition to this, another user also displayed his displeasure for not being able to find the schedule of the upcoming events schedule. He commented, “Because nobody in the States watches the Olympic games. The schedule of disciplines is hard to find, the athletes don’t post it has media prevalence for us to gain rapport with, etc.”  Thus, the debate continued.  What are your thoughts on the issue?
