What happened in the Men’s 100m at the 2022 World Championships?
The U.S. men took the spotlight in Eugene last summer in the men’s 100m when Fred Kerley, Marvin Bracy-Williams, and Trayvon Bromell swept the podium—marking the first time this was done since 1991. This summer will look different as neither Bracy-Williams nor Bromell qualified for this year’s team.
Stars to Watch in the 2023 Men’s 100m:
Kerley, the reigning world champion, hopes to defend his title. 2019 world 100m champion Christian Coleman will also be in the mix for Team USA, alongside 2023 U.S. Champion Cravont Charleston, and the two-time reigning 200m world champion Noah Lyles who is aiming for the double in Budapest.
