‘Love is patient’ – Noah Lyles waxes lyrical after engagement as Junelle Bromfield walks down memory lane on how it all started
American sprints king Noah Lyles has sought to show his commitment to Junelle Bromfield following their engagement as his fiancé revisited the struggles they faced early in their relationship.
Kerley is pictured training alongside his coach, and he tweeted "top of the mountain we going for".
The 29-year-old, one of only three men along with Michael Norman and Wayde van Niekerk to go sub-10 seconds in 100m, sub-20 seconds in 200 m and sub-44 seconds in 400m, added: "I like to think that I was created for a special purpose. Greatness baby".
Perhaps this is an indication that the American sprinter who has earned six medals at World Championships, is aiming for more success, especially after a turbulent year.
This season has been a mixed one for Fred Kerley who parted ways with his sponsor, Asics, just before the US Olympic trials. The sprint king had just signed with the new sponsors in February 2023 after his contract with Nike expired at the end of 2022.

Kerley finished third behind Noah Lyles and Kenny Bednarek.
