Back in 2021, Marcell Jacobs out of nowhere came through to win the 100m Olympic Crown, taking the honor of being the first Olympic sprint king in the Post-Bolt era.
If Jacobs wins the Gold at the Paris Olympics against Lyles I wouldn't be surprised, because he knows when to peak at the right time and is very good at running under pressure.
Also, the Paavo Nurmi track is old and slower than most tracks. Definitively slower than Eugine's. In Eugine or Tokyo (another fast track) he could have run 9.82.
@@stefanoviviani6064 Elaine also happened to struggle with injuries during non Olympic years. With the exception of this year. That's why it would be pretty crazy if Jacobs is in the same situation
@@sebastiantevel898 The competition he will face all have a better base with 200m range. Jacobs earlier 100m success came from his explosive Long Jump background.
