The men's 100 meters is sure to be one of the highlights at the Paris Olympics. 

Defending World Champion Noah Lyles will be looking to live up to his "Fastest Man in the World" title but has a tough competitor in Jamaica's Kishane Thompson. The 23-year-old Thompson comes in as the betting favorite, considering his personal best in the event is 9.77 seconds. The last time Lyles posted was a personal best of 9.83 seconds that won the U.S. Olympic trials. Oblique Seville is also in the cards to make things interesting, adding even more fire to the legendary rivalry between Team USA and Jamaica.
