Noah Lyles Settles 3-Year-Old Feud With Fred Kerley Ahead of Paris Olympic

Noah Lyles Settles 3-Year-Old Feud With Fred Kerley Ahead of Paris Olympics 2024. At the 2023 World Championships, Noah Lyles and Fred Kerley exchanged fiery smack talk, each claiming the title.

At the 2024 US Olympic Trials in Eugene, Lyles clocked 9.83, earning a WORLD LEAD and a ticket to Paris. Kenny Bednarek followed with a personal best of 9.87 for second place, while Kerley secured third with 9.88. Reflecting on his journey, Lyles said, “Three years ago, I finished second to last. This year, I came back and won it.” He credited his Tokyo Olympic bronze medal in the 200m for fueling his passion to chase four Olympic golds in Paris. Despite their rivalry, Lyles and Kerley share a deeper bond.
