Noah Lyles ran 9.79 at the US Athletics Championships in New York — the world's best 100m time in 2026, cutting down Jamaica's Oblique Seville, who'd held the season lead at 9.82 since June.
It also matched his personal best from the 2024 Paris Olympics. Baker and Bednarek both ran 9.88 behind him; Coleman was fourth in 9.93.
"Just because it's an off year doesn't mean I plan to run slow."
Sha'Carri Richardson took the women's 100m in 10.77 — and per BBC Sport, she looked like herself again for the first time in a while.
