Overview

• Noah Lyles, the reigning 200m world champion, has set his sights on breaking Usain Bolt's world records in the 100m and 200m events at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
• Usain Bolt has given Lyles a 'green signal' to break his records but has refrained from offering any direct advice on how to achieve this feat.
• Lyles is not only aiming to surpass Bolt's records but also to outshine other sprinting legends like Tyson Gay and Justin Gatlin, by becoming the world's fastest man.
• The American athlete has outlined his ambition to secure four gold medals in the 100m, 200m, 4x100m, and 4x400m events, a feat not even Bolt achieved during his career.
• Lyles emphasizes his motivation to 'transcend the sport' and utilize his potential Olympic success as a platform for broader influence beyond athletics.
