Lyles the showman ready to deliver 100m entertainment

A crowd of 60,000 is expected to pack out the home stadium of Premier League club West Ham, which served as the venue for track and field during the 2012 Olympics in the British capital.

Lyles, with his outspoken persona, is used to being the posterboy for such meets, and the 28-year-old American said it would be no different this time around.

"It's definitely my type of place," Lyles said of London Stadium on Friday. "I love a big crowd and I like it even better when they're engaged and they want to be there and want to see something.
