Team USA's Noah Lyles fell short of pulling off the double Thursday at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, as he settled for bronze in the men's 200-meter track event after previously winning gold in the 100m.

Botswana's Letsile Tebogo became the first African man to ever take gold in the 200m with a time of 19.46 seconds, followed by American Kenny Bednarek in second and Lyles in third.

After the race, Lyles appeared to be in some form of distress and was later taken down the tunnel in a wheelchair by medical personnel.
