The men's 100 metres at the 2023 World Athletics Championships was held at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest on 19 and 20 August 2023. [1]
With 13 athletes under 9.90 for the season, the field was crowded and fast. NCAA Champion Cravont Charleston didn't get out of the heats. Olympic Champion Marcell Jacobs and defending champion Fred Kerley didn't make the final. Meanwhile, 200 metre defending champion Noah Lyles claimed to be in pursuit of three gold medals, even though he had only finished third at the US Championships. Oblique Seville produced the fastest time through the rounds with his 9.86 in the heats.
In the final, fast starting 2019 champion Christian Coleman lived up to his reputation, getting out fastest, slightly ahead of U20 Champion Letsile Tebogo and Ryiem Forde. By the halfway point, Coleman had a metre and a half on the next group of Seville, Lyles and Zharnel Hughes, but the three were closing. Over the next 30 metres, Lyles gained a slight edge on Hughes and Seville, pulling even with Coleman and Tebogo. Over the final 20 metres, Lyles continued to increase the narrow gap while Coleman drifted out the back. Lyles crossed the finish as a clear winner, with Tebogo, Hughes and Seville hitting the line together. The photo finish revealed Tebogo in second, one one thousandth ahead of Hughes for bronze with Seville only three thousandths behind him. Tebogo's version of 9.88 improved on his own Botswana national record for the seventh time; his silver medal was the first won by an African man in the 100m at the world championships. [2]
