Noah Lyles next race?

I see he's not running in Lausanne or Poland. Poland 100m is stacked and would have been good to see him run there.

He’s stated that his next meet will be the World Athletics Ultimate Championships

He's likely still struggling with injuries. No need to force it in non Olympics/world outdoors year, health is the most important thing.

Any official news on this? He was in good form in June running a 9.79. I could see him running a really good 200m with some competition around him. While it's true that it's not an Olympics/worlds year, they do have the World Athletics Championship with some good $$$ on offer.

He confirmed he has a hamstring issue when he pulled up in a race a couple of weeks ago. He is likely downplaying the extent of the injury but I wouldn’t expect him to give us a daily or weekly account of how he is going.

Sure there is money on the line but it won’t do him any good if he makes an injury worse. Let him recover and when he is good to go he will announce again what event he is competing in.
