I knew if I panicked I was not going to win.“If you are tight, you are done for.”How much did Lyles earn for his victory?Along with a six Diamond League crown and revenge over Tebogo, Lyles received a tidy boost to his wallet.Thanks to his first place finish, Lyles pocketed $30,000 for his troubles.When will Lyles and Tebogo race next?Although Lyles now has the wood over his rival, it won’t be long before Tebogo gets his chance to reclaim supremacy in the men’s 200m event.Lyles, Tebogo and the rest of their rivals will soon jet in to Tokyo for the World Athletics Championships, which take place in September.Noah Lyles' Diamond League trophiesBrussels (2017) – 200mZurich (2018) – 100m, 200mBrussels (2019) – 200mZurich (2022) – 200mZurich (2025) – 200mTebogo is yet to win a gold medal at the World Championships having picked up silver and bronze in the 100m and 200m respectively in 2023.As for Lyles, he has six gold medals from World Championship events to his name, including the 200m in 2019 and 2023.
