When it comes to Olympic racing, the elite athletes are often separated by the slimmest of margins. That was never more on display than Sunday when American Noah Lyles crossed the finish line of the 100M dash just fractions of a second faster than his opponents.
In fact, during the live broadcast on NBC, commentators mistakenly thought that Jamaican Kishane Thompson had won the race and captured the gold medal.
But it wasn’t Thompson – it was Lyles, who won the race in a photo finish for the ages.
Both Thompson and Lyles posted the exact same time of 9.79 seconds.
Watch American Noah Lyles win by five THOUSANDTHS of a second in a wild photo finish at Olympics’ men’s 100-meter dash.
The men’s 100 meter dash at the 2024 Paris Olympics promised to be one of the most compelling sprints ever with legit star-power and a wide open field. The race didn’t just live up to expectations, it blew them out of the water with maybe the closest finish you will ever see.
American Noah Lyles took home gold by five thousands of a second over silver medalist Kishane Thompson of Jamaica. Fred Kerley of the United States came in bronze.
