Between Noah Lyles drama in the sprints and distance demon Sifan Hassan’s 62-kilometer odyssey that closed things out with a gold medal, track and field took the Olympics on a wild ride over 10 days of close calls, upsets and drama.
Sha’carri Richardson, of the United States, crosses the finish line to win the women’s 4 x 100 meters relay final at the 2024 Summer Olympics, Friday, Aug. 9, 2024, in Saint-Denis, France. Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone hands off to Gabrielle Thomas, of the United States, during the women’s 4 x 400-meter relay final at the 2024 Summer Olympics, Saturday, Aug. 10, 2024, in Saint-Denis, France.
Could there be a legit track rivalry brewing between Lyles, who lost in his best race, the 200, to Letsile Tebogo of Botswana? Someone asked the new champion if he wanted to someday be the “face of track” — a role Lyles is clearly is angling for. Four days after finishing fourth, Ingebrigtsen mentally rebooted to win the 5,000 meters in convincing fashion.
“The only thing I would say is, there’s probably a case now for looking at the height of the hurdles,” he said. “These guys don’t really look like they’re breaking their form very much to do that.”Winner: US athletes dominate once againLyles, Richardson, McLaughlin-Levrone and Thomas are the obvious candidates to become bigger than the game.
