Le champion olympique en titre du 100 m, Noah Lyles, a été battu lors du meeting de la Diamond League à Londres, pour sa première sortie sur la distance depuis Paris 2024. Auteur d’un modeste 10.00, l’Américain a été devancé par le Jamaïcain Oblique Seville (9.86), auteur d’une performance étincelante. Malgré cette défaite, Lyles garde la tête froide et préfère tirer des enseignements de cette rentrée face à une concurrence de très haut niveau.
00:00I feel great, I feel extremely healthy, I have no pain, I feel like we could run another one, like this is exactly how you want to feel, but yeah, you're right, of course I want the win, but I'm going to take, I mean, I think that's my fastest season opener in the 100, so I'll take that too.
00:14You know, of course you're going to see oblique out there, and just being like, okay, don't let it get to your head, just go try and chase him, just reel him in little by little, just like any race, and then of course there's the moment where you cross the line, you're like, well, I didn't get it this time, but the important thing was to not panic, to make sure that I hit all my positions, regardless of him being out there and saying, no matter what, I can still hold my head in a high pressure situation.
