Another opportunity presented itself recently but Lyles was forced to cancel because he is busy preparing for the Olympic Games in Paris, France.

He said: “Travis Scott came to the 2022 World Championships and I couldn’t meet him because I had to run. Today I cancelled going to see him in concert again to prepare for the Olympics. The world can be so cruel sometimes.”

Meanwhile, Lyles is eyeing a quadruple at the Olympics and he is bubbling with excitement ahead of the global event.

Speaking to World Athletics in a previous interview, Lyles noted that there is a new fire ignited in him and he is hungry for more success.

“I’m not different. I’m still the same Noah. If anything, I’m more hungry than before because I’ve proved to myself that I can do it, so now I’m even more eager to do it for next year. It’s almost like another fire has been ignited for next year,” Lyles said.
