Olympic champion and reigning world champion Noah has opened up about the duality of admiration and criticism he faces in track and field

Known for his flamboyant personality and exceptional talent, Lyles has become a polarizing figure in the sport, adored by many while equally scrutinized by others

In a candid moment during an episode of Netflix’s Sprint, Lyles reflected on the pressures of being at the top and how public perception shapes the narrative around him

Noah Lyles has disclosed one thing his followers dislike when it comes to competitions.

«With having the title of being at the top, you know one mistake can seem like the end. Life works in ups and downs, and I’m no different. I’m a human being, I have ups and downs,» Lyles shared

«People see you as a superhero, and when they realize that illusion is broken, they somehow want to blame somebody. The quickest person to turn to is the one who gave them that illusion.»

Lyles’ journey has been marked by both triumphs and challenges, a reality he embraces as part of being in the spotlight

His ability to thrive under the scrutiny was on full display at the Paris Olympics where amidst all the backlash, he clinched the gold medal in the men’s 100m final, edging out Jamaica’s Kishane Thompson

The weight seemed overwhelming when Lyles secured a bronze medal in the 200m final where he was tipped as a heavy favorite in what is considered his favorite event

Olympics champions Noah Lyles, Rai Benjamin and Grant Holloway have joined hands for a new exciting venture aimed at going beyond the track for their fans.

Despite the weight of expectations, he remains determined to build on his successful 2024 season and continue adding to his collection of accolades

As Lyles moves forward, his openness about the complexities of fame and success underscores the human side of a global champion, reminding fans and critics alike that even ‘superheroes’ have their struggles
