In a historic finish at the 2024 Olympics, Noah Lyles won the men's 100m final in a stunning photo finish, clocking 9.79 seconds, just five thousandths of a second ahead of Jamaica's Kishane Thompson. All eight competitors finished within a remarkable 0.12 seconds, marking the fastest 100m race in history, with each athlete recording times under 10 seconds. The finish was determined using advanced technology that analyzed body parts across the line, solidifying Lyles' victory after a late surge that saw him come from behind. This win marks Lyles' first Olympic gold, having previously secured a bronze in the 200m at the Tokyo Games. Other notable performances included Australian athletes Nicola Olyslagers and Eleanor Patterson winning silver and bronze in high jump, respectively, as the Olympics showcased a night of thrilling athletic achievements.
