Olympic Sprints Dominate 2024 Athletics

:The 2024 athletic season has been marked by several standout performances, particularly in the sprint events at the Olympic Games in Paris.

Noah Lyles, the world 100m champion, secured the gold medal in the 100m final with a time of 10.79, edging out Jamaica's Kishane Thompson by a mere 0.005 seconds. This was the closest Olympic final in history, with all eight finalists breaking the 10-second barrier in a wind-legal race. Fred Kerley took the bronze medal, just 0.02 seconds behind Lyles.

In the 200m event, Letsile Tebogo of Botswana set an African record with a time of 19.46 to win the gold medal. Kenny Bednarek of the USA claimed the silver with a time of 19.62, while Noah Lyles, despite contracting Covid-19 before the event, managed to secure the bronze with a time of 19.70.

The 400m event saw a dramatic finish as Quincy Hall of the USA, a former 400m hurdler, used his strength to overtake Britain's Matthew Hudson-Smith in the final meters to win the gold medal. Hall set a personal best of 43.40, while Hudson-Smith's European record of 43.44 earned him the silver. Muzala Samukonga of Zambia took the bronze with a national record time of 43.74.

These performances highlight the exceptional talent and competitiveness in the sprint events at the 2024 Olympics.
