2024 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials Night 7: Sha’Carri, Lyles, McLaughlin-Levrone reign supreme

Noah Lyles already clinched his spot in Paris during the 100m final, but the reigning 200m world champion had already announced his intention to compete for four gold medals at these Olympics. Looking to book his spot in the Paris 200m, Lyles posted a time of 20.10 seconds in his heat. Lyles is also the defending Olympic 200m bronze medalist.

“Everything’s looking good right now,” Lyles said after his dominant win.

Courtney Lindsey, Kenny Bednarek and Erriyon Knighton also won their heats and will run in the semifinal. Bednarek is also Paris-bound already thanks to his second-place finish in the men’s 100m final.

Christian Coleman, who was widely expected to earn a 100m Olympic spot but finished fourth in the final, is vying for a 200m qualification. He finished second in his heat, posting a time of 20.30 seconds.
