Josephus Lyles, the younger brother to three-time 200m world champion Noah Lyles, has expressed his delight at running his first sub-10 in 100m.
Josephus ran a wind-assisted 9.97 at the PURE Athletics Sprint Elite Meet on Saturday, finishing first ahead of Kendal Williams (9.98) and Eloy Benitez (10.08) in the preliminary round.
Though wind-assisted, it was quicker than his personal best of 10.03 recorded at the Billy J Murphy Track and Field Complex, Memphis, Tennessee in July 2022 and the sprinter got all inspirational after the performance.
