The 2024 Paris Olympics will witness a few American athletes, including Noah Lyles and Kenny Bednarek compete in multiple events. Lyles and Bednarek will compete in the 100m and 200m events after earning the Olympic quotas at the 2024 Olympic Trials.

Noah Lyles earned the Olympic berth in the 100m after topping the event in Eugene with a stunning time of 9.83 seconds, surpassing Bednarek and Fred Kerley, who clocked 9.87 and 9.88 seconds, respectively.

Moreover, Lyles also dominated the 200m event to grab the Paris Olympics berth with a time of 19.53 seconds. He was followed by Bednarek (19.69 seconds) and Erriyon Knighton (19.77 seconds), to earn the Olympic spot.

Given the 2023 WAC's victory and his consistent dominance in the event, Lyles is the frontrunner to secure victories in the 100m and 200m in Paris. He is also expected to join the American squad to compete in the 4x100m relay event.

The 2024 World Indoor Champion Elle St. Pierre, secured the Paris Olympics quota in the 1500m and 5000m. Grant Fischer, who specializes in middle-distance and long-distance running also qualified for the 5000m and 10,000m, after topping them with 13:08.85 and 27:49.47, respectively.
