Noah Lyles upset by Letsile Tebogo in 200m final at 2024 Olympics

The last time a sprinter won the 100- and 200-meter events at the Olympics, the record belonged to Usain Bolt.

He was the star from Jamaica who had staked a legitimate — and perhaps indisputable — claim to earn the title of fastest man alive.

Lyles had a chance to ensure his name belonged in any of those conversations, but he settled for a bronze medal after Botswana’s Letsile Tebogo won gold and Team USA’s Kenny Bednarek won silver.
