Jordan Anthony’s Bittersweet Relationship with Noah Lyles
Jordan Anthony has been training with the Olympic champion for a long time, and both have developed a bittersweet relationship, exchanging playful banter during local and national games.
Anthony, however, shocked the track and field world when he defeated his training partner to win the 60m title at the indoor championships. This prompted an exchange where Anthony kept the mutual respect alive while taking a shot at Lyles’ legacy. He told Olympics.com:
“We have great mutual respect for each other, and I enjoy training with him, but we are going to talk smack if not the sport remains soft, so I’ll bring the football mentality, and he’ll bring the old age legacy.”
Both have made a dominating impact on the tracks and are widely regarded as the best sprinters at the moment.
Jordan Anthony and Nathan Green have both blazed their way to the world stage. They would be seen representing USATF at the World Athletics Indoor Championships, along with 55 other athletes, in Kujawy Pomorze, Poland.
