- After confirming he tested positive for COVID following winning bronze in the men's 200m, US sprinter Noah Lyles sat down with Sky's Rob Harris to talk about his recovery and being the world's fastest man.
"I try to be a showman," said the Olympic gold medallist, "some people criticise me for it, some people love it."

Huge amount of respect for the man..to openly talk about Mental health problems after winning the fastest man on Earth race speaks volumes of his character...go Noah go...❤
Its miraculously how this guy is instantly healed from his COVID symptoms to have an interview . Hallelujah my brother !🤔🤔
@@ronnierichards1272 😀😀😀
I think the fact that he’s not running helped with the loss of breath.
@@ronnierichards1272 he had covid since tuesday
Exactly!! Covid free in less then a day. Paxlovid should give him a brand deal
@@sharris8682Covid free is what he said.
Tebogo lost his Mom in the lead up to the Olympics, let's not forget that.
that's an excuse.
@@oluwafela excuse for what? .... I did not learn this from the athlete, the media reported it. Tebogo is not out there looking for sympathy. Losing one's parent is major though .... Bless his heart and his strength, it could have derailed his entire championship.
@@YaadandOvaSoh its funny how it only affected the 100M and not the other races. and when media reported noah having covid no one believed and yall thought he was making it up, despite the fact that he still won a medal regardless.
tebogo showed that he also is arrogant and loud with that press conference. so let's stop acting like he's a saint
@@oluwafela 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Many persons also do experience lost and have to go to work.
they try their hardest to hate noah but the truth is hes a nice guy with a lot of confidence
Yes 💯
The truth is,we try to like him
He's only "nice" coz he lost. This dude is so arrogant!!!
@@charlesmcshonay5901 ive been watching Lyles since before Tokyo olympics he’s always been a good dude . Just confident
Exactly!!!
Noah is actually a nice guy...not particularly arrogant the way people perceive his showmanship or big mouths. I think he uses that for personal confidence and to walk his way through others' instincts. We need someone like that for the sport. We don't need everyone to look so serious than usual. The reason we all still missed Usain Bolts is because of his showmanship. We all knew he could run even faster than his 9:58 WR...Well done, Champ ❤💪
I think Noah is not by nature the person he portrays during competition, but he hides, protects himself behind an Alter Ego.
I say the same thing. He's definitely not a bad person. He just doesn't know how to control his mouth, that's all
True. I think he portrays arrogance but really isn't that arrogant. I mean one could get the sense that the guy we see hyped and doing 6ft jumps on the spot before the start of a race, is a mix of showman and shaking off the nerves.
Noah Lyles and his family are beautiful people but haters will always hate 💯
I think Noah Lyles literally is a showman because thats what sells
Totally agree. An in spite all the negative feedback I think the guy is good for the sport of
Track
And field. We need an ego like that. And the dude is fast as hell. I say leave him be and let him run.
Don't understand why people that can't even run to the mailbox keep making these ignorance comments. Noah from day one been a showman and wants to grow the sport as much as possible. U. Bolt told him to keep doing what he's doing because track and field needs that. Congratulations Noah Lyles and continued to grow the sport.
😂 completely agree that half these people couldn’t run 10m at Noah’s warm up speed. 😂He’s been a showman from day one. He’s also put in a lot of work into his craft. There’s no way he would’ve not run even if he had COVID and jaundice combined. 😂 it’s the Olympics, it’s dream! He obviously got COVID from others who are at the Olympics as well. Just leave the man alone and keep scrolling…
Fr, like these people ain’t never even touch the track 😂
@@AfricanDeeexactly 😂
LOL Usain Bolt brought the excitement not Noah Lyles! The whole world watches and will continue to watch the 100m sprint with or without Noah Lyles as it’s the pinnacle of the Olympic! Noah is just doing himself… showmanship and all of the shenanigans that’s his style but do not say he does it for the sport …
Y'all need to stop it! He does what he does in order to get in the heads of his opponents not to "grow" the sport as he claims. He does it for personal visibility and gain. It puts money in his pocket and thats alright for HIM but he's NOT doing it for the sport so STOP IT!!! btw...when he says "grow the sport" he only referring to the USA. People in other countries (over 7 Billion) that loves track & field.....loves it regardless of whether or not Noah is part of it.
Noah Lyles is an extraordinary athlete and we love to watch him run. He will break the 200m world record one day . His showmanship attracts people to the sport. Most of the times he achieves what he says.Wishing him all success- A fan from India
I can tell india doesnt know 💩 about track
They say love & hate can never be friends but I prove that’s wrong when it comes to Noah lol Thanks for the exciting 2024 Olympics
We need to agree tt the NBA wouldn't be watching olympics if it weren't for Noah
🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
Say what 😂
His statement was eating them
Watching the women not men
Thats not even true at all
I love Noah Lyles. The dude has true character and isn’t scared to be who he is.
We should all be scared to be who he is though
Who?
He's cringe
He said in the interview that he didn't want to give anyone COVID. Then why did he run the race and then after he was hugging and shaking hands with his competitors??? He got beat and that's it. He was not displaying any COVID symptoms before the race!!!
Awful fast recovery. His confidence here is irritating
Cry more
@@jsigur157he’s been sick since Monday
I agree, ridiculous... He pretended to have Covid because he lost.
He had it for almost a full week
Also he’s an Olympic athlete of course he’s not gonna display symptoms before the race. Running a full 200 in 19 seconds with covid is gonna be a lot heavier on your body than anything else, especially as an Olympic athlete with bad asthma.
He ran the race because he didn’t wanna let everyone down for 1, since he wants to put on a show. And 2 he said he didn’t want to throw the competition off their game by revealing that, so he ran without telling anyone, showed his sportsmanship and left.
VERY INTELLIGENT GUY..
I love Noah. KEEP WINNING!
Noah is trying his hardest to grow his sport. He does everything to bring attention to the sprinting world. Usain Bolt did it via World records, noah is doing it via winning and talking. People forget sprinters are entertainers, and noah entrance is entertaining. Money follows attention.
Yh, alot of ppl forget that athletes, especially in the US, don't get paid alot so him being like this brings income for the sport and himself.
Bot
@@Paradoxx77 wut?
@@Paradoxx77 repeating the same thing twice is sorta bot like but oke
@@loaf_of_milk what kind of name is loaf of milk?
Shout out to Noah Lyles!!! Keep doing your thing
This dude is a great human being. This part of his showmanship. Love u bro
People hate to see an unapologetic and confident Black Man. Let's go Noah Lyles. Let’s go Tebogo.
No tebogo and Thomson
has nothing to do with race lol
Stop with the race card man
They all loved Usain though didn’t they?
@@jujutrini8412Because nobodyelse could touch Usain bolt in a race so they had no choice but to respect and love him .
He seems like a nice guy overall
That's also my assessment. Him and his girlfriend had an interview with Asafa Powell, which I thought shows his true nature. I just wish he didn't reveal his COVID story as it sounds more like an excuse for failing to win the race.
Him and his family are beautiful people and do a lot for the community here in Florida
I think he's a chill and nice guy, but sometimes when big game is approaching he feels more confident and he can sound a bit arrogant and even act extra (e.g. his controversial entrance for the 200 race)
Noah Lyles has ADD, which is excessive talking/ talking without thinking/ excessive movement/ center of attention. He really isn't trying to be arrogant or offensive to others. He has been this way for years. Why do people take everything he says to the heart and personal?
😮😢😂
🤡🤡🤡🤡
Noah Lyles is just a clown and a big mouth wannabe!! Real champs get things done then talk about how and why they did it.
Real champs don’t make excuses!!
Hail Clown Lyles!!
no clue ppl are just hateful. it’s okay tho bc that bad energy will just come back to THEM.
Because they have marbles for brains
Seems people already forgot how COVID works!
😂😂
IKR
How quickly we forgot 2020/21😮
Fr 😂
I’m watching because of Noah
Tebogo's dust gave him Covid 😷
He did make us watch👌
Noah is a fking confident man, I like him. Hes entertaining (I sleep watching NBA(
Kept reading the title as "trying to be a snowman". I had to read it 5 times until I read it right.
Same!!!
get some glasses
@@TheoOJamaloO1 no u
Wonderful interview. Congrats
Id actually been bored with track for years. Sha'carri got me watching women's sprints again, Sifan Hassan got me onto distance events, and Noah got me into men's sprints. They all bring something to the sport for me. I think he is doing a great job.
Chill guys chill he's a good guy
He and his family are beautiful people here in Florida
"none of them is gonna win" " they will be depressed".. Its very rare to hear big mouth athlete who wish others to be lose and depressed. Toxicity and narcissism masked by confidence
@feliscatus6117 sorry then he's too confident that's the problem
Usain Bolt is the fastest man on earth
He's not coming back from retirement
Usain Bolt will always be the fastest man in the world
@@kidmangu200 Usain is the fastest man until Noah runs 9.58 which he never will
It doesn't matter no human can beat 9.58 sec😂😂😂😂
Was😂
And he is very talented too ! He is one of my favorite sprinter ! He is the real deal. Without him America couldn't win men 4x100m. TEBAGO must feel very lucky !
It's Tebogo, and he deserved getting the gold medal.
@@doriswembe4941 no he didn’t. He did not deserve that 200 m gold if Noah had ran 1950s I could accept it. Noah went out there ran 19:70 disgusting for Noah something we hadn’t seen in four years out of him.
@@darkenergy361 Oh, poor Noah 😅😅. Please have some respect for Tebogo.
@@darkenergy361He deserved his medal. He won fair and square. Get over it. The sympathy campaign is not moving me. The audience ain't slow
So everyone should have lost?
So he doesn't have Covid anymore? Interesting... 🤷♂️
Not that interesting though is it. It's not a terminal illness
@@anesu846 it is suspicious to any honest person. No need to play stupid regarding this.
Tebogo proved to the world that Noah Lyles is not the fastest man alive with his legs, but only with his mouth.
Tebego hit the Covid out of his system 😆
😂😂😂😂 he recovers so fast
and when I get off that turn................depressed.........😂
Bostwana 🇧🇼🇧🇼🇧🇼
We were watching Olympics before Noah Wyles 😂
Who is we 💀
@@sereenaanderson4983you
A lot of the nba fans tuned in to watch Noah “lose” the 100
FANS NEED SHOW-MEN in SPORTS. IT BRINGS SUSPENSE,
ANTICIPATION, EXCITEMENT, & ENTERTAINMENT. Showmen and
their braggadocio ENTERTAIN, and helps promote sporting events.
May not even be Noah's true personality, but his trash-talking (/so-
called "pride") helps build, hype, & promote athletics and sports in
general.
By the way, WAS BOLT HUMBLE???
It's not hollywood!! Hype is deceit. The 100m sells itself. Noah only made people want to see him lose. Fact. No one likes jerks.
Kishan THOMPSON 26/06 > 9.77
Noah LYLES 4/08 > 9.79
The world fastest men in the world this year is Kishan THOMPSON.
Stop spouting nonsense, casual
Love Thompson but he hasn't been to any international events and that's what ultimately lossed the gold .
I think Kishane is faster too, but he has to prove it. He has not proven it yet.
@@mertholomy8414 Be objective. The best world performance of the year is 9.77 from THOMPSON, no one has done better so no he is not the fastest in the world currently.
@@tutovtor4718 he underperformed when it counted so it doesn’t make him the fastest in the world
There is a difference between being a showman and being arrogant...ask Bolt
Usain Bolt got the world watching without looking down and being rude to other athletes..This boy run his mouth a lot. Glad our ears were speared for a moment..Tobogo 🇧🇼🇧🇼 humbled him...
Noah won when it mattered the most
Meanwhile Usain Bolt was on film telling Noah to stay the way he is because the sport needs personalities like him.
@ brit7522 because Bolt didn't know the extent of his arrogance
They both need to be humbled and I enjoyed seeing Tebogo eat dust in the 4x4
Bolt was arrogant too 😂@@talkingitout1623
He hasn’t broken the world record yet lol
Never will
He was indeed a showman that night, I was in the stadium as well, he really a star and making all the ambience🤟 : )
Man done his job like the rest, well done everyone.
The first time I saw him, I liked him😂😂.
He's seems fun and exciting and I knew he'd be a different person off track.
So he went from a positive to negative test in 3-4 days? All cap!
nope it’s possible with a good immune system. look it up
@@moonlightxmusic6382at this point these people just don’t want to hear the truth or facts 😂
Most people don’t understand confidence and misinterpret it for arrogance which is wrong. There is a thin line between the two and people should do well to remember that
Its sick. His own people too. He's not wrong about a single word he said. He is the fastest man In the world and he earned it entirely. People don't like to see others enjoy their success. It's sick
Confident people don't put others down, they pull them up... Noah is an insecure man trying to tell himself he is confident. Someone needs to send him the definition of confidence.... Though I doubt he would be able to digest and understand it.
@@YaadandOvaSohthis people should Google what arrogance means, not an insult but Tebogo was spot on
@@tonnytsima7229Tebogo should say that to his people. Try researching those people in that part of the world. Or try looking at African Moods.
Yes 💯
that kangaroo jump 👌👌👌
Lyles like Ali, Carl Lewis, Tiger Woods, Bolt, brings in the attention that brings in money for the whole fiield.
He’s not a showman. Usain Bolt was the definition of showman. He’s just about winning races by luck
Pathetic. Before the olympic games bolt asslickers said the new "bolt" Kishane Thompson will humiliate Lyles. But Lyle outclassed him, now the bolt asslickers can't stand the truth.
Luck? he won 27 200m races in a row...
Hes a good person inside.
He should be humble and admit that he lost the 200 meter. Period and no excuses. This man does not have that quality
Half the commenters have a beer belly, can’t jog for 2 mins without gasping for dear life, can’t stay off burgers for 2 days, but wanna hate on Noah, lol- y’all stop. He’s on a human level most people can’t even fathom. Congrats to the man.
This dude is funny as hell 😂😂😂😂
Being a showman loses u the 200M
Haters go relax and try do what he does. I am Noah's biggest fan
I THINK ALL THE FANS AT THE PARIS OLYMPICS TOO!! IT WAS AN AMAZING SHOW DOWN!! 💃🏻🙏🏽🕊💪🏽 100 🥇🏃🏾♂️🇺🇸
I wish him all the best, but I also hope that he humbles himself.
Dude, FANS NEED SHOW-MEN in SPORTS. IT BRINGS SUSPENSE,
ANTICIPATION, EXCITEMENT, & ENTERTAINMENT. Showmen and

WAS BOLT HUMBLE???
@aceofspades2966 Bolt was actually good
@@vjanssens399 so is Lyles, and it's undeniable
@@rottenapples14 He's not in Bolt's league. He'll never run 9.58.
He makes the Olympics very interesting. Congratulations on gold and bronze!
World champion of what Lool he recovered very fast after he had to get wheel chaired out
Lost in the 200m eat your humble pie.
Some of the comments here are ridiculous lol..... That guy up there lost To Tebogo n tried to cap n say he had Covid... Instead of just saying I'm not him😂
I’ve never seen someone so quickly universally scorned
Big up Noah!
Such a great intervewee
Damn.... He's already talking. 😢😢😢kiss mi mumma
Never a bored moment with Noah. All the best for the future.
I don't think he should have risk all that stress on his lungs for the 200. But he seems like a nice guy. I never hear his name associated with any scandals.
Yeah poor lungs. He could barely jump around before the actual race.
World champion. 🥉
He’s good entertainment 😅 thanks Noah
he got covid and asthma flare up from inhaling the dust off Tebogo's shoes 😂😂😂😂
Such a positive guy, nice interview..
This is by far my favourite athlete 😅
Talking crap
Big up the addition to our Jamaican family. Plenty entertainment in the games.
Noah a great guy to watch on the track.
Noah lies
Noah is top sprinter n champion of both world n Olympic 100 meter. Next olympic is in USA n he wl more relax knowing he's the fastest man on earth.!pls come to Kuala lumpur Malaysia, bro. 🎉🇲🇾
7:46 Noah lyles and usain bolt are the two most famous ,most loved and richest sprinters ever. Usain bolt is the world record holder in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m ,noah lyles is the world champion and olympics champion both LYLES and usain are the Greatest, fastest ,best sprinters ever ,Two Sprint KINGS 🎉🎉 GOD BLESS NOAH LYLES AND USAIN BOLT .and ALL Athletes world wide. 7:46
Your a DUNCE.
Yohan Blake and asafa Powell are all greater than Noah Lyle and more famous
Why does he have one gold and one silver around his neck when he just won a gold and a bronze ?
Imagine how heavy is for Usain Bolt? 🤣🤣🤣
Noah Stop Da 🧢
Still a fan of Noah because he brings a lot to the sports his showmanship and entertainment is different he sells a good race and makes everyone watch he’s basically like an antagonist but in track he’s exciting to watch and y’all can’t say no to that people watched the race because they didn’t want him to win 🥇 people who don’t even watch the Olympics or Track & Field had no choice but to pay attention to him no cap
More like ‘I try to get ad contracts by acting out’
Bingo !!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Lol
This guy is pure comedy
The best athletes became the best actor no gold medal on 200 but won the Oscar Award.
Great interview ❤ 🇺🇸
Noah lyles is a GENIUS.
Greatest final of all time 😶
Noah the chosen one❤
Absolutely
Chosen to do what? Be a meme till the next Olympics?💀
World Champion. 🥉
Usain already put atlethics in the limelight . Lyles will never be well loved as Usain was and still is
Its quite funny all his haters in here watched his interview😂....Congratulations fastest man alive!!
Tebogo was 100% correct with his assessment of Noah Lyles.
Arrogant and Loud
Like Tebogo himself in 2022 wasn't?
@@realAndresilverhe never did the jumping and all that and listen to his interview before that showboating they had had issues with that guy he was pointing at otherwise in interviews or before or after a race he doesnt do those showman antics
So jumping is being loud lol. If there is no showman the sport doesn’t grow
@@HeIsHim00It grew during the Bolt era without all that rubbish.
This guy needs to do way more winning and less talking...because I am not impressed by what I have seen at Paris. He was awarded the gold in the 100M under highly contentious circumstances and got severely beat in the 200M. Instead of jumping around like a clown before each race trying to become Usain 2.0, he needs save that energy for the race. This ain't it bro!
Look, he arrogantly talks down his opponents, something that Bolt never did. He is different from Bolt in his presentation and flash beyond the track and has a lot more antics than Bolt. But, rules are rules. He beat Kishane. He is the Gold Medalist for the 100 m in 2024. That is a huge accomplishment. Bolt was on another level from everyone else...
@@musafawundu6718Bolt was a maniac on the track .He used to actually taunt his opponents knowing he would beat them .The American sprinters had some stories about him lol
He hadn't placed outside of the top 2 in competition since 2021. And he hasn't placed outside of the top 3 in competition since 2013 lmao He does plenty of winning
let's go noah!
I like his colorful characters and his superb performance. ❤❤
Get well soonest, Noah 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🏅🥉🦅🐐
where covid gone?🤣🤣🤣
but honestly US would have won gold on the 4x100m if he was there. They ran 37.47 in round 1.
HIS MAJESTY KING NOAH LYLES IS THE FASTEST MAN ON THE PLANET 🎉🎉🎉.
😅😅😅😅
I get that Noah, according to him is trying to make the sport more interesting, but while a little controversy is good, Noah’s presence just gives off wrestling vibes.
