Oblique Seville has explained how beating Noah Lyles twice has given him a huge boost of belief ahead of the World Championships.
Oblique Seville has opened up about how much of a confidence booster it is to beat Noah Lyles twice ahead of the World Championships in Tokyo, Japan, in September.
The 24-year-old had a steady start from the blocks, competing in the men’s 100m at the Diamond League Meeting in Lausanne.
He went on to cross the finish line first in 9.87 seconds amid the poor weather conditions. Noah Lyles and Ackeem Blake crossed the line in a photo finish, clocking 10.02 seconds.

After the Diamond League Meeting in Lausanne, Oblique Seville opened up about how much of a confidence booster it is to beat Noah Lyles, the reigning Olympic 100m champion, in their consecutive encounters.
He has plans to return Jamaica to glory, noting that since Usain Bolt’s dominance, no other Jamaican has won the World Championship title, and he wants to be the one to do it.
Justin Gatlin won the men’s 100m world title at the 2017 World Championships before Christian Coleman took the title in 2019. Fred Kerley claimed top honours in 2022 before Noah Lyles in 2023.

Africa's Fastest Woman Opens Up on Her Biggest Fear Ahead of World Championships
Marie Josée Ta Lou-Smith has revealed the one fear she is determined to overcome as she chases success on the global stage.
“Running 9.87 in those conditions shows I can go much faster, anywhere in the world. That’s a good time. I’ve beaten the Olympic Champion twice, in London and here, and that gives me a lot of confidence heading into the championships,” Oblique Seville admitted.
“It’s been a while since a Jamaican man has won the 100m at a global championship, and of course, I believe I can be the one to do it. My coach inspires me a lot; even the small tips he gives make a big difference.”
Oblique Seville finished second behind Kishane Thompson at the Jamaican Championships, and he will be eager to go one place better on the global stage, something he believes he is capable of doing following his impressive performances so far.
