Video: Noah Lyles Laughs, 'I'll Be Winning' 200m After Photo Finish 100m at Olympics

Noah Lyles isn't letting his close call in the 100 meters impact his confidence.

The United States track star said he plans on adding a second gold to his Paris Olympics experience in the upcoming 200-meter sprint.

Lyles defeated Jamaica's Kishane Thompson by five-thousandths of a second in the 100-meter dash over the weekend, earning his first career gold medal. The 27-year-old previously won bronze in the 200-meter race at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.

The United States has been banking on Lyles brilliance on the track, as he was the first American to win gold in the 100-meter sprint since Justin Gatlin in 2004. This was also the first time the U.S. won two medals in the men's sprint since Gatlin and Maurice Green in Athens.

Once the most dominant country in the world in track-and-field, the U.S. watched as Jamaica ascended to the top over the last 20 years. The U.S. has also not won the 200-meter sprint since Shawn Crawford, Bernard Williams and Gatlin swept the medals 20 years ago.

Lyles remains the overwhelming favorite to capture a second gold, with DraftKings Sportsbook putting him at -675. He's won the world championships in the 200 each of the previous two years.

American teammate Kenneth Bednarek, who won silver in the 2020 Summer Games, is second on the odds list at +600.
