World 100m champion Noah Lyles easily settled his 200m half on Thursday at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest, minutes after being involved in a collision between two golf carts.
Athletes are transported from the warm-up stadium to the main stadium in semi-open carts that can accommodate eight people in addition to the driver, in which fixed cameras are placed.
According to television images, two carts collided at low speed Thursday evening. One of the two carried sprinters, ready to compete in the 200m semi-finals, including the 100m world champion and two-time American 200m champion Noah Lyles.
“The order of the 200 m semi-finals has been changed due to the collision of two carts. An athlete and a volunteer were examined. The athlete was cleared to run,” World Athletics wrote in a statement.
