Top 5 notable performances from USATF Bermuda Grand Prix 2024 ft. Noah Lyles, Abby Steiner

The USATF Bermuda Grand Prix 2024 saw breathtaking action unfold, both in the track as well as field events. While the event was scheduled just a day after the Shanghai Diamond League 2024, it still saw some of the world's best athletes competing for the gold, the ultimate aim being to improve their performances ahead of the Paris Olympics 2024.

USATF Bermuda Grand Prix was categorized as a Continental Tour silver meet by the World Athletics. But Noah Lyles, a reigning 100m and 200m world champion, chose it over the highly deemed Shanghai Diamond League.

Abby Steiner was another big name headlining the contest. The U. S 200m and 300m indoor world record holder featured in her first 200m race in 10 months, after making a comeback in the 100m event earlier at the Tom Jones Memorial, where Lykes Lyles also made his outdoor season debut.
