Letsile has a strong versatility in all his events; you know it's very, and it's very needed. I mean, I when I was coming up in myself in sprints, I was like, 'wow there's not a lot of doublers out here, there's not a lot of people can go from the hundred to the four or even the hundred to the three,' so it was you know kinda it was kind of weird cause you know I felt that you know watching through from 2007 to about 2015, there were a lot more doubles and then they kind of drifted off and now, you can see your resurgence with Letsile being one of those people," he said.Noah Lyles opens up about competing in many eventsNoah Lyles at the 2025 Novuna London Athletics Meet - Source: GettyNoah Lyles spoke about competing in a diverse range of events in an interview with USA Today.
