'Hardest choices...' - Noah Lyles reacts to Athlete of the Year snub hours after Letsile Tebogo is announced winner
Following Letsile Tebogo being named the 2024 World Athlete of the Year, Noah Lyles has a first social reaction.
"These planes keep on distracting me. I could never go to school here," Bromfield remarked, referencing the constant noise during their Las Vegas training camp.
Lyles, ever supportive, responded lightheartedly, "You don't have to."
The conversation then took a nostalgic turn as Bromfield reflected on her upbringing and the facilities available for athletes in Jamaica.
She noted that while U.S. schools often boast specialized facilities for various sports, Jamaican schools typically focus on a few multipurpose spaces.
"In Jamaica, we didn’t have all of these. Like basketball here, baseball there, and everything. We just had a track, a cricket field, and a football field," she explained.
Lyles, finding humor in the simplicity, quipped, "Sounds like y’all had a lot then." Bromfield quickly clarified, "The soccer field and the cricket field is usually the same field."
Lyles, drawing parallels, noted that in the U.S., "Track and football usually share the stadium, actually."
Bromfield interjected, "The thing is, it’s not a stadium though," underscoring the difference in scale and infrastructure between the two countries.
