About this listen
Noah Lyles has once again electrified the track and field world, winning gold in the men’s 200 meters at the 2025 World Athletics Championships with a blistering time of 19.52 seconds, according to Sportskeeda. This victory adds another chapter to his storied rivalry with Letsile Tebogo, who finished just out of medal contention in fourth place. However, the real story making waves involves Lyles’s candid post-race comments, directed at Tebogo, urging him to ignore public criticism and embrace his own charisma rather than holding back out of fear of being judged. Lyles’s message—“Don’t worry about how other people see you. There’s always going to be a target on your back. It comes with the job... Stop it, just be you”—quickly became a talking point across social media, with fans describing Lyles as the sport’s much-needed personality and “the ultimate alpha,” though not everyone agreed, with some accusing him of selective boldness depending on victories or defeats.
On the business side, while there have been no major publicly reported sponsorship deals or new brand partnerships in the last 48 hours, the ongoing success and controversy have only expanded Lyles’s public profile and marketability, particularly as anticipation builds ahead of future international meets. His current brand remains strong, with his outspokenness and success on the track driving significant engagement and conversation.
Switching gears to social media, Lyles continues to be an active, sometimes polarizing figure. According to TVJ News on Threads, Lyles recently responded to criticism from Jamaican fans about comments he made after the 100m heats. He clarified his intent and attempted to mend fences, showing his willingness to address controversy directly rather than shy away from it.
Recent headlines in the last 24 hours remain focused on his championship win and his ongoing influence both on and off the track, with most outlets highlighting his achievements, his rivalry with Tebogo, and the broader debate over athlete personalities in track and field today.
