Noah Lyles Wins 150m Sprint at Golden Spike Meet

Noah Lyles won the 150m sprint at the Golden Spike meet in Ostrava with a new world record time of 14.67 seconds.

The 28-year-old US star smashed the previous record of 14.92 seconds set by Jamaica's Kishane Thompson earlier this year.

Gout Gout, an 18-year-old Australian sprinter, finished third with a national record time of 14.96 seconds.

Lyles's victory is a significant milestone in his career, solidifying his position as a top sprinter in the world.

He has been training with Gout Gout at his US base, and their partnership seems to be paying off.

Lyles will look to build on this success as he prepares for upcoming competitions, including the 200m at the Under-20 world championships in Oregon.

Gout Gout, on the other hand, has decided to skip the Glasgow Commonwealth Games to focus on the 200m at the Under-20 world championships.

As of June 17, 2026, Lyles's 150m world record time of 14.67 seconds is the fastest in the world this year.

The Golden Spike meet in Ostrava has been a successful event for Australian athletes, with Peter Bol winning the 1000m in 2 minutes 15.13 seconds.

Lyles and Gout Gout have been training together regularly, and their friendship was evident as they embraced after crossing the finish line.

The US star's victory is a testament to his hard work and dedication to his craft, and he will look to continue his success in the coming months.
