Noah Lyles is no longer the fastest man in the world.
Jamaica’s Oblique Seville shocked the sprint field to win the men’s 100 at the 2025 World Championships.
Seville got a good start and pulled away at the end to win the race with a personal-best time of 9.77.
Kishane Thompson of Jamaica clocked in at 9.82 to place second. Lyles’ time of 9.89 was good enough for third.
Lyles edged Thompson in the 100 at the Paris Olympics in what was a dramatic photo finish. The two were the favorites entering the world championship final. But Seville stole the show.
