In this May 18, 2019, file photo, Noah Lyles of the United States reacts after winning the men's 100-meter race during the Diamond League Track and Field meet in Shanghai, China. The most promising signal that track and field remains in good hands even after Usain Bolt’s retirement comes from a 22-year-old American named Noah Lyles who appreciates the Jamaican superstar more for what he did after his races than during them. When Lyles spends time studying Bolt on video, he looks not at the lanky speedster’s form in between the lines, but at the dancing, rollicking post-race celebrations Bolt concocted to make his sport can’t-miss viewing whenever he was on the track.
