Eugene, Oregon – Noah Lyles defended his 200-meter title in electric fashion in a second U.S. sprint sweep, while Shericka Jackson thwarted Jamaican teammate Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce’s bid for a sprint double in the women’s race at the world championships on Thursday.
After Fred Kerley led a 1-2-3 finish for Team USA in the men’s 100, Lyles made no mistakes over the longer sprint, racing home in 19.31 seconds in Eugene.
