Lyles for Ostrava Golden Spike, Tamberi returns
OSTRAVA (CHE) Olympic and World Champion Noah Lyles will make his debut at the 65th WACT Gold in Ostrava on June 16, and he will run in the 150m. “I am very happy to perform at the Zlatá tretra stadium in Ostrava, Czech Republic. It’s really special to me because I’ve been following this match for years. I’ll run 150 meters and maybe attack the best performance in the world,” Lyles said.
