(VIDEO) Louie Hinchliffe beats Noah Lyles in 100M Olympics heat

Noah Lyles posted on social media just before his Paris Olympic debut in the 100. “Ight let’s get this Popping,” he wrote Saturday morning.

Lyles didn’t get it “popping” in the opening round. After receiving the loudest ovation of any sprinter in the race, Lyles got a surprising second in his 100 heat with a time of 10.04. Lyles didn’t get a good start and had to play catch-up for much of the race.

Louie Hinchliffe of Great Britain won the race in 9.98, Lyles placed second and Shaun Maswanganyi of South African finished third (10.06).

The top three in each heat, plus the next three fastest times advance to the semifinals on Sunday.
