Noah Lyles, a six-time World Championships gold medalist is the first name to watch out for in the Atlanta tournament. Lyles is included in the roster of the men's 150m sprint event in which he can face tough competition from the likes of Josephus Lyles.
However, with the level of skillset the Florida native has, he will be going into the tournament as a favorite irrespective of the competitors in front of him.
