When is the 200m final at the Olympics 2024?
All the details about the men's and women's 200m finals at the 2024 Olympics, including when the races take place and how to watch them.
Yesterday (Tuesday 6th August) saw Team USA star Gabby Thomas add a gold medal to the bronze she won three years ago in Tokyo as she produced a sensational run to win the women's 200m.
Now it remains to be seen if her countryman Noah Lyles can take home the men's prize after his astonishing display to claim gold in the 100m final on Sunday.
The 27-year-old sprint superstar is a three-time 200m world champion, and certainly seems confident that he can add an Olympic gold to that haul.
Asked during a press conference on Monday who is the fastest man in world, he responded: "It’s me. It’s always going to be me."
Lyles is expected to punch his name into the history books during these Games as he takes to the track in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m events this week. With one gold already under his belt, can he continue his form?

His competition is expected to include fellow American Kenneth Bednarek and Botswana's Letsile Tebogo – but Lyles is the comfortable favourite going into the race.
