Monaco Diamond League: Lyles to make 200m return against Olympic champion Tebogo
Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles said he will make his return to action in the 200m at Friday’s Diamond League in Monaco.
The 27-year-old American ran a 400m in Atlanta in April, but is yet to compete over the 100 or 200m this season.
Lyles’ season debut in the half-lap race will see him line up against Botswana’s Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo.

It will be the duo’s first race since that final in Paris last summer when a Covid-struck Lyles claimed bronze.
Tebogo heads to Monaco as the sprinter to beat. He set the fastest time of the season over 200m in Eugene on Saturday, in 19.76sec.
