DESPITE an injury-induced delay to the start of his season, Olympic 100 metres champion Noah Lyles reckons his form is as good as -- if not better than -- last summer when he claimed gold in Paris.

- LUKE PHILLIPS

Lyles won a thrilling race at the Stade de France just over a year ago by the narrowest of margins and went on to claim bronze in the 200m when suffering from Covid.

For the first time since that Olympic 100m final, the self-proclaimed showman will on Saturday come face to face with Kishane Thompson, the 24-year-old Jamaican he pipped by just five-thousandths of a second in Paris.
