LAUSANNE, Switzerland AP - Noah Lyles was 'super excited" Tuesday about his progress toward defending his 100 and 200 meters titles at track and field's world championships next month.
The Paris Olympics 100-meter champion lost weeks of training to an unspecified injury in April and ran his first sub-10 seconds time this season on Saturday in Poland.
Lyles aims to build on that 9.90 dash - second by 0.03 to the fastest man in the world this year, Kishane Thompson of Jamaica - in another 100 Wednesday on the Diamond League circuit.
