“That’s a great way of putting it. Once I set my mind to something, I make it come true. That doesn’t mean I just sit back and wish upon a star.
“I put in the work. I control the natural and let God control the super – that’s how you create the supernatural,” Lyles, the American sprint king said.
As he heads to Paris, he will not only be looking to win the four gold medals but also looking to shatter Usain Bolt’s 200m world record that he set at the 2009 World Championships.
The American is looking to end the dominance of the Jamaicans and wants to be one of the greatest sprinters of all time. “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time,” he added concerning the goals he has set for himself.
Meanwhile, Lyles will also be hoping to change the sport and modernize the sport and not only look at major events like the Olympics and World Championships.
