USA star Cole Hocker came from behind to win a dramatic 1500m race at the Olympic Games, leaving 100m king Noah Lyles ‘screaming his head off’.
Hocker produced a late dash on the final stretch to see off Britain’s Josh Kerr in Paris, while his American teammate Yared Nuguse took the bronze in third place.
After his victory, Lyles – who won gold in the men’s 100m sprint at the weekend – took to social media to heap praise on his compatriot while admitting the race got him extremely animated.
He wrote on X: ”That was an amazing 1500! Cole Hocker you Got me screaming my head off!’
