Eugene, Oregon - World 100 meters champion Noah Lyles claimed a measure of redemption by winning the 100m at the US athletics trials on Sunday, booking his ticket to the Paris Olympics.

Three years after failing to reach the Tokyo Olympics in the 100m over a trials finals flop, Lyles won in a personal best 9.83 seconds at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.

"Three years ago I got second to last. This year I came and won it," Lyles said. "Part of the plan. Nothing changed. Might be a shock to everybody else but when you know the goal, you know the goal."

Kenny Bednarek, the 200m Olympic runner-up at Tokyo, ran a personal best of 9.87 to finish second with Fred Kerley, the 2022 world 100m champion, third in 9.88.

"On to the next one at the Olympic Games," Kerley said. "We're ready to go put on a show."

Christian Coleman, the 2019 world 100m champion, missed out on a chance at 100m gold, finishing fourth in 9.93 in a race with a wind at 0.4m/sec.

Lyles settled for 200m bronze at Tokyo after being the favorite for gold but last year captured world titles in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay and is fancied for gold once more in France.

"If I didn't get that third place in Tokyo, I wouldn't have had that desire, I wouldn't have had that fire burning, I wouldn't have accomplished what I have accomplished in the past," Lyles said. "And now we constantly look to the future with open eyes because anything can happen."

Lyles (26) led all semi-final qualifiers from Saturday preliminary heats in 9.92, then won his semi-final heat in a wind-aided (3.0m/sec) 9.80 to lead all eight qualifiers for the final.

Bednarek reached Paris after a near miss in the Tokyo trials.

"I just stayed calm and collected and executed my race. That's all I needed to do," Bednarek said. "I got edged out in the Tokyo Olympic trials but I'm finally getting the hang of the 100 and the sky is the limit for me."

Athing Mu, the Tokyo Olympic women's 800m champion who returned to competition in heats after a nine-month hiatus, was the fastest qualifier for Monday's final, winning her semi-final heat in 1:58.84.

"I felt way more in control this race," Mu said. "It was helpful this one was at a faster pace so I know what it's going to be like in the final."

Sam Kendricks won the men's pole vault by clearing a meet record 5.92m, breaking his old mark by .01, with Tokyo Olympic runner-up Chris Nilsen sharing second with Jacob Wooten on 5.87.

Quincy Hall, third in last year's worlds, won his men's 400m semi-final heat in 44.42 to lead all finalists.

Quincy Wilson (16) qualified for the final in an under-18 world record personal best of 44.59.

"I came out and gave it everything I had," Wilson said. "We put on the same shoes the same way."

Kendall Ellis, on the 4x400m gold medal relay in Tokyo, won the women's 400 final in 49.46, 0.25sec ahead of Aaliyah Butler.

Brooke Andersen, the 2022 women's world hammer throw champion, failed to mark.
