Breaking: Noah Lyles isn't coming through mixed zone - he's going to medical

That is my impression. He got left in last 100 and that usually does not happen, and in fact that is where he generally leaves others.

That was definitely part of the act but you could tell the past two days that his swagger and act were completely gone despite having won the 100. ....Like he already knew he wouldn't have it in the 200. Then the whole medical tent thing following the semis was telling. And his face just looked blank the past two days. His jumping up and down during the 200 introductions was the only exception to his subdued behavior. It might serve as a convenient excuse for him but he is most likely legitimately sick.

He has Covid-19 and is asthmatic. Still ran 19.70

Pre-race dancing like an asshat? Bronze? Wheelchair? Covid? Check, check, check and check! The great Noah Lyles drama continues unabated.

I don't wish anything but the best for everyone, but why jump up and down like a lunatic before the start of the race and risk possible injury if in addition to that he had covid-19.

It was an attempt at mind over matter. If he didn’t do that, maybe he wouldn’t have won a medal in his condition.

He always aims to give a show and rev up the crowd.

When did he get it? The day after the 100?

I don't want to say I told you so, but.....I told you so.
