Congratulations to Noah Lyles for his Olympic Gold despite the criticism and haters. winner's mentality, Bolt himself said that Noah has that mentality that this sport needs to attract more people
big congrats to noah lyles. that entry was HILARIOUS 🤣🤣🤣 that confidence before the race by noah is insane. he really talks the talk and walks the walk. amazing
@@oliver1086 it does and you know it. americentrism is a fact. look at the medal count, world culture, music, olympic sporting etc., its got america written all over it.
@@camsad8736 America as a continent is alright medal wise, USA medal count per capita or GDP is ok to poor. This is also inflated by the massive weighting of swimming events on Olympic medals and the relative ease that swimmers can compete in multiple events, given USA's performance in swimming. And with regards to world culture, Britain easily has had the biggest effect globally to date, which pains me to say. Chinese and Indian food is everywhere, not just in cities but in towns. In cities you get chinese and indian "towns". French and Italian food probably the most widely regarded and renowned. Olympic sporting, I've no idea what you mean by that but the above probably covers it. Music, yeah lots of good music from the America. I'd probably put war and currency at the top of that list followed by political influence which itself relies heavily on those two massively.
@@oliver1086 dude, you are literally commenting on this matter..by using THE CIA'S invention. Do you think the internet would have been possible without the USA ? Let me hit you with another one , we are all speaking english here but we are not all americans not by a far strech. Yet, here we are completely americanized while some of us still struggle to understand the world . Everything that the americans still do Right, is for the rest of the world to take notes from. Period.
@@camsad8736 so you push american in sports but your country burns with it's citizens and toxicity? the rest of the world laughs at you if you are pushing that agenda, being an ocean apart from everything makes you a bubble but your own population is seething to knock each other out, you can keep it and enjoy your country, literally burning, due to your climate denials.
Akani, you did SA proud 🇿🇦 Another agonizingly close 4th place but you ran a brilliant race! A fantastic NR and you're the fastest man in Africa! It's a pleasure to watch you run Sir. Can't wait to watch you medal in the 4x100m!
He was. Maybe you just didn't know. He was a U20 World champion in the 100m. He was the American USATF champion back in 2018. In 2019 Diamond league champion, beating Coleman in 9.86. It's just that he stopped training the 100m in 2020 and 2021. In 2022 he focused solely on the 200m and then 2023 back to the 100m. Like his coach Brauman himself said, Lyles has always been a 100m guy.
To my knowledge the first time ever that all 8 sprinters ran under 10 seconds... 9.91 and u become 8th WTF! This was the closest final EVER! 0.12 between first and last...
Most drawn out event on the planet. 9 minutes to cover 9 seconds of racetime. Although it would've been a lot easier without the British commentator so desperate to waffle on the first thing to enter his head.
That was amazing from Noah. He didn´t have the best start and came back incredibly strong. Congrats! Can´t wait for what he´s gonna do in the 200m. That´s where he really shines.
@@Supastackman I mean french Judo team win gold in Mixed team which consist of 4 athletes purley African!!. Which not fair back in days France conquer majority of African countries ( kill and slavery) now they celebrate the win in the name of France by athletics from those contries they conquer. The devil feels a sham to do that.
We reaaaaally need to stop with this Jacobs nonsense. He got lucky 4 last time. Ducked the best sprinters for 3 years, an now came in 5th where he belongs.
no if, and I do not care "if" he was limping. this guy was suspected for doping because not American, they tried everything to demolish him, went through all kind of criticism for 4 years, simply because he was injured every time. Despite this, despite being the first Italian below 9.99, he rebuilt his way to run, got back to a final and run 9.85 arriving 5th, with another medal time. Now you from your sofa write if. 5th is enough for me, 9.85 is another gold medal, the gold medal of respect, that only who knows what this guy went through these 4 years can understand. Compliments to Kyle's and all the guys running less, and to the Indian guy in lane 10 too (ah no, that was the camera on the rails).
Maybe replace some of the 6.47 minutes of dead time at the beginning of the clip with a slo mo and photo finish. This is not how you do highlights of a 100m Olympic final
Regardless of the outcome of the race -------- whuzzup with making all of the runners STAND AROUND FOR ETERNITY before allowing them to get into the blocks to run the damn race?!? ??? Are you kidding me? The amount of time that transpired was ridiculous!! Also, whuzzup with all of the HORRIBLE background music/noise being blasted over the PA system while everyone's being forced to wait FOREVER!! ??? Did anyone else on planet earth notice this ------- or is it just me? Congrats to all of the participants for running their hearts out ------ despite the strange and totally unnecessary delay for this highly anticipated race..
not head, not chest. it’s whoever touch the line first. If your leg/foot is ahead than others in air, but other touch the line first then other will be announced as a winner.
You've gotta show Mr Lyles some respect. That start was nowhere near good enough but then he shifted into win-mode and reeled them all in. Whether you like him or not, he is, without doubt, a worthy 100 metres Olympic champion.
Strangely, I don't think we're actually disagreeing on anything but maybe I can express it more clearly: I'm just saying that to recover from a slow start and win over 100 metres at elite level is always going to be difficult but it would seem to be almost impossible in an Olympic final, when the world's very best are running flat out to win. The margin for error is so slight. To give away so much ground at the start of such a race and still recover is, IMO, remarkable. Imagine what he'd be like if he could learn to start quicker. @@Yes_I_c4n
He chokes big time, man... He ran 9.81s easy in the SF. He eased up at 80 or so, so could have ran 9.78 likely. Come the final, he cracked under pressure.
@@krzysstaw In the 100m it's not possible, at all, to break Usain's 9.58s, or 9.63s for that matter. Might as well ignore those comments by whoever talks about it, Lyles included.
Previously, in some cases, they shares first position when they were very close. To bad they didn't do the sportsmanship thing this time. That would be great for the sport, and very cool for two runners to have the same gold medal from the same Olympics.
@@MrClebophdPreviously (more like decades ago) they didn’t have technology that actually makes it possible to verify who’s in front. The reason wasn’t that they want to gift more gold medals, but that they couldn’t measure well enough. Nowadays they can and the faster one absolutely should win gold ALONE.
I hate how these guy act like stupid before and after the race. They just tried to mimic old good Bolt. I liked that Jacobs is still humble. Olympic champion and had no need to be a clown before the race.
2 contestants, less then 0.01 of a difference 4 contestants, less then 0.04 of a difference 6 contestants, less then 0.07 of a difference all contestants, less then 0.12 of a difference That's insane
4:25 Noah Lyles was repeating: 'Thank you, God' many times before unexpectedly winning this 100m sprint. Noah Lyles hype was over the top, but he lived up to it tonight, almost as well as Usain Bolt himself!😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅🎉🎉
I wonder if Kishane would have won if he bent himself more at the end. In track and field you finish when your center of mass passes the line. That is why Noah Lyles won even though Kishane and other american Guy put their legs out further and they touched the line first with their legs. By bending yourself at the end you slightly push your center of mass forward saving you a bit of time. Now its not a lot but it is enough to save you 5 thousands of a second or 5 milliseconds. It might have costed Kishane the gold.
This was a very tightly contested race. All the contestants put up a very good fight and proved why they made it to the final. Congratulations to Lyles!
İt would be great if he could break Usain Bolts 200 meter world record, after he has improved his 100 m personal best despite this poor start it seems likely he could, since he is at his physical peak and obviously in his best form as well. From 19.31 to 19.19 seems possible in my view.
Crazy to think that he's a 200M specialist, and he started running 100M not so long ago, he's a showman, but he can sure walk the talk. His reaction time in 100M is never the best, and he still catches ups and wins, its crazy, he's still young, we'll see great things happening for him in the future hopefully
I think Jamaicans always crumble a little bit under pressure(appart from Bolt). Kishane Thompson did 9.80 in the semi fanls pretty easy and now he looked very tight. Congrats to Lyles though, amazing
@user-zc9cl1rx2l ...Thompson is big talent he just 23 first Olympics ever. Its also experience Lyles knows the feeling of big games and pressure. Thompson is new to the game but the fact a new guy on the block runs on the level as guys who been doing this for some years tells you Thompson is big big talent for the look out.
Fantastic race... At the starting blocks, only one thought in their heads: 'we are at the final showdown'. The summary of effort, sacrifice, sweat for less than 10 seconds from glory!
