Noah Lyles on Sunday broke a 20-year drought for Team USA in the men's 100-meter final, breaking Jamaica's historical stranglehold on the event and bringing home the gold.
But it wasn't without the race of his life — and a photo finish that showed the American edge his competitors by literal thousandths of a second. According to the NBC broadcast of the event, Lyles beat out Jamaica's Kishane Thompson by five thousandths of a second to claim a victory in the biggest event of his life.
