EUGENE, Ore.—Noah Lyles locked down the first major step in his quest for an Olympic sprint double Sunday, coming from behind to win the 100 meters at the U.S. track trials in 9.83 seconds to qualify for that race in Paris.
Lyles overcame a slow start to match his personal-best time. He beat 200-meter specialist Kenny Bednarek by .04. Fred Kerley, the 2022 world champion, finished third and will also go to Paris. Christian Coleman, the 2019 world champ, was in the lead with about 30 meters left but finished fourth.
