Born in Gainesville, Florida, Noah Lyles became a natural talent at track and field from a young age. Ever since he made his professional career debut in 2016, he blazed through the youth circuit, reaching the finals in a 200m gold medal at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games – a hint of the champion to come. He has broken the 20-second rule of the 200m event for a total of thirty-eight times in his career as of 2024. He made his biggest achievement so far by winning the World Athletics Championships six-times in his career, especially in Budapest 2023, when he won the 100m, 200m and the 4x100m relay events. He has been compared to former Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt for his impressive speed during his performances.
