Noah Lyles won the men's 100-meter dash at the Paris Olympics, marking the end of a 20-year Olympic drought in the event for the USA. His victory was by the slimmest margins, with Lyles taking gold by a fraction of a second from Jamaica's Kishane Thompson. This was the narrowest margin of victory since electronic timing has been used at the Olympics. Lyles' compatriot Fred Kerley took bronze in 9.81 seconds. Lyles' win cements his status as the premier American superstar in the sport.
