Noah Lyles’s mouth gets him in trouble nearly as quickly as his feet cross a finish line – how else can you explain the 2024 Olympic 100-meter dash gold medalist taunting both NBA and NFL stars for not being world-class athletes since they faced only national competition? “I have to watch the NBA Finals and they have world champion on their heads,” Lyles said in a press conference. “World champions of what? The United States?” Lyles could face a challenge race from NFL football wide receiver Xavier Worthy (who this year broke the NFL record for the fastest 40-yard dash during the NFL Scouting Combine) and other players in the future. But a guy who this summer won the Olympic gold medal in the 100-meter against the best competitors from around the world, earned a bronze in the 200-meter dash despite having COVID, and still holds the American record in that race – can probably outrun the competition!
