A lot of people are hating on lyles in the 100m probably because they think he’s annoying but I’d say he could very well win the 100m. His 9.81 was into a slight headwind and kishane ran 9.77 with a 0.9m/s tailwind so both times are comparable if you take the wind out of the equation. In kishane thompsons latest race he ran 9.91 but into 0.6 headwind. I think lyles will just about take it. I also think he’s focusing on the 100m more than 200m for the Olympics as if he can get the 100m then the 200 is almost definitely in the bag as that’s his more natural event.
You're leaving out that Kishane shut down in all his races he ran so far. So we still don't know how fast he can run. We do know that his season best/pr last year was a 9.85 going all out. So for him to run a 9.77 slowing down means he can definitely go faster
@@midrib6246 yes but with lyles running a 9.81 into a slight headwind and him really dialling down on the 100m I think he is the favourite for gold. Lyles is also consistent, his last 3 races have all been under 9.85. It will be very close though.
BRO Kishane Ran 9.77 shutting down at 80m everybody who really know track and watched that race knows what that means. With that race alone he is already one of the fastest men alive. Noah will have to obliterate his personal best to reach 9.77, Kishane has yet to run all out, Noah ran all out in his last race based on what i saw.@BitCrafted
Times in pacemaker races mean little when tactics play a much greater role as they do at the World Champs and Olympics. The winner of the Olympic Gold will be the runner who executes the best tactics on the day. It may well be Ingerbrigsten but Kerr is a great tactician and someone else may also surprise if they run a smart race.
2024 bowerman mile 2023 world 1500m 2022 world 1500m 2021 Olympic 1500m All of these races have one thing in common and the one that he did win you'll notice it was very similar to a rabbited race. I didn't include the European championships because that is not against the world's best.
I think wanyonyi will take the gold in the 800m just because he’s a young runner so is more likely to have improved since he ran that 1:41 and in the race against Sedjati it was close and I think he could have beaten him if he didn’t lead from the front and have a crazy first 400m split. Could go either way though but I wouldn’t be surprised if the 800m time is close to the world record and I think there’s a good chance David rudishas record could be broken in the next year.
@@michaelferguson7978 Not gonna happen. Not while he’s doing the 100m at the same championships. He would have to run the 200m by itself to have a chance.
@@SuperKamiGuruu That was two years ago, when he only did 1 individual event. The reason he did 19.31 was because he was only focused on the 200m and plus it was in Eugene, USA so he had home field advantage. He hasn’t touched those times since
Those were some nuclear distance predictions. The issue a lot of ppl have is that hot time trials 2 months out are not good signs bc athletes can only maintain peak fitness for 6 to 8 weeks at most. And Grijalva is a nonfactor im not even sure why you would pick him out of everyone.
I'm rooting for Ben Pattison to get a medal in the 800m. He ran 1:42 recently, is 22 and had heart surgery just four years ago and....well, he's british!
Kishane Thompsons time had a 0.09 tailwind while lyles fastest time this season was around 9.81. Still rooting for the jamaican but he is not the favorite here

Great analysis...hard to argue with your well reasoned picks BUT I do disagree on a few races. 400 hurdle: I've got "the Viking" winning gold over Dos Sanstos (S), Benjamin (B). 1500: I've got Ingebrejtson winning gold.
I can’t argue with any order of the the big three in the 400h Jakob is the favorite for a lot of people but I can’t count out Josh Kerr since he hasn’t run any bad races this year
@@daltonsmith9724 Dont think it has anyhing to with figure him out - To me it looks more like Warholm dont have the same "killer instinct" last 50 meters as before. Earlier he didnt allow any1 to get past him at the end of the race. Maybe he is in a very hard training period and his peak are yet to come (he looks more tired at the end of the race than earlier - Or maybe because he already has won everything it is hard for him to keep the same motivation/mentality to endure the pain getting thru the full race at max trothle
@@waterrocketlab151 Sure, but the race Kerr won earlier this year that was Ingebrigtsen first race after injury brake (far from fully race fit) still not far behind Kerr
I’m going with Fred Kerley nobody talking about him Winning gold medal 🥇 in 100. Then Michael Norman winning a close 400 gold. Nobody is talking about them I feel they’ll surprise the world.
Can never rule out athletes of this calibre but am Hudson-Smith for 400m and Kishane for the 100m. Would love Josh to take 1500m Gold but being real its 70/30 in Jakob's favour I think. Am all in for Rai in 400m H but it will be very very close. Can't wait for track and field to begin! The lead up events have been insane in both men and women's side this season so I am expecting fireworks across multiple events. Dare I say the 100m is not the most anticipated race this time around? It isn't for me!
my gold predictions are: Thomson (9.65), Tebogo (19.38), Holloway (12.77), Hall (43.49), Warholm (45.87), wanyonyi (1:41.98), Ingebritsen, Bakali, Ingebritsen and Kejelcha (Cheptegey wont even podium i think). no times for 1500 meter and up cuz it all depends if its a tactical race or not. i dont have Lyles winning the 200 meter cuz i think the pressure will be to big after not taking the gold in the 100 meter (winning all races between 2 olympics will make the pressure for him to take gold on the 200 meter so huge).
@@waterrocketlab151 haha yes i do realize that probably not all those races will be that fast, but it is the olympics so who knows some of them can do special things.
Jakob could win, but last Olympics Josh ran 3:29 and Jakob also had a pacer with cheruiyot. Kerr has improved more than Jakob since then. I think it’ll be pretty neck and neck. In my opinion Kerr will just take the win but could go either way
@@mockinghyena960 Yeah but you train to peak at the olympics, so diamond league results are a good indicator but not in any way a sure way to determine who’ll be better when the day comes. Like yeah it’s more LIKELY Sydney will win. Betting odds are 9:2 that Syd win, 2:7 that Femke wins. But I don’t think it’s justified to act like it’s already happened.

Just 2 athletes in history have done the 1500 / 5000 double at the olympics Pavo Nurmi and the great El Gourrouj & only Bernard Legat at the worlds. Its a big opportunity to join a very very elite club but Ingabritsen has to race smarter in the 1500
