American sprinter Noah Lyles officially broke Usain Bolt’s record for the most 200-meter races run in less than 20 seconds on Sunday at the London Diamond League competition.

The 26-year-old has completed 35 sprints in under 20 seconds after finishing in 19.47 seconds on Sunday. Bolt, who retired in 2017, finished his career with 34 sprints under the 20-second mark.

Lyles took home the bronze medal for the 200-meter race at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. His gold medal finish on Sunday in London was his fifth for the 200-meter at this competition.
