PARIS: Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles is not one of the two finalists for male track athlete of the year, World Athletics revealed on Monday.
Lyles won one of the closest Olympic finals in history to take gold in Paris in August by five thousandths of a second from Kishane Thompson of Jamaica.
But Lyles misses out as 200m Olympic champion Letsile Tebogo of Botswana and Norway's 5000m gold medallist Jakob Ingebrigtsen were the two male track athletes to make the final.
The American was aiming for an Olympic sprint double but had to settle for the 200m bronze medal behind Tebogo and his US teammate Kenny Bednarek.
Lyles later revealed he had raced in the 200m despite testing positive for Covid-19.
