Lyles Hits 19.52: Usain Bolt's Retirement Party Just Got Awkward

Fred Kerley Lyles, a man who apparently treats the 200m like a casual stroll in the park, dashed through the finish line in a blink—19.52 seconds! That’s fast enough to make Jamaican legend Usain Bolt awkwardly sip his retirement tea, as Lyles now stands shoulder to shoulder with Bolt's exclusive club of four straight world titles. So we have Lyles, time 19.52, and the shadow of Bolt, the Usain who turned sprinting into an art form, now watching a younger gent rewrite history faster than your last Zoom meeting expired. Four titles straight means Lyles is the new king, or at least Bolt's distant doppelganger.
