Noah Lyles has put all his 200m rivals including Letsile Tebogo on notice as he made a bold prediction ahead of the L.A. 2028 Olympic Games.
Triple world champion Noah Lyles has opened up about his Olympic Games dream that never was and how he plans to work on himself to be ready ahead of the L.A. 2028 Olympic Games.
The three-time world 200m champion disclosed that he never thought the 200m would be one of the hardest for him to win at the Olympic Games, revealing that he will bounce back next time.
In an interview with NBC Sport, he put Letsile Tebogo, the reigning Olympic champion in the 200m and Kenny Bednarek, the silver medallist on notice as he plans to take over in Los Angeles. Lyles only managed a gold medal in the men’s 100m before testing positive for COVID-19.

“I’d definitely say it’s unfinished business, me and this Olympic 200m. I always thought it was going to be the 100m that was going to be the hardest one for me to obtain. I never thought that I’d be 100m Olympic gold medalist before I became a 200m Olympic gold medallist,” Lyles said.
He added that in 2028, competing on home soil will be a morale booster and he will be out to show the world what he really is capable of.
