Jamaica's Kishane Thompson edges USA's Noah Lyles in the odds for 100m Gold in Paris
One of the most anticipated Gold Medals at the Olympic Games is the 100m race with the big sprint always providing massive stories over the past few decades, from Marcell Jacobs last Olympics to Usain Bolt's dominant period and it's the same again this year.
UK Betting Sites have odds available for the Men's 100m this year with the latest odds looking like it's going to be a two-horse race with Jamaica's Kishane Thompson just above USA's Noah Lyles in the betting market.
22-year-old Thompson became the joint-ninth fastest man in history during Jamaica's Olympic Trials at the end of June after hitting 9.77 seconds in the 100m and that instantly saw his odds slashed to win Gold in Paris this summer.
Lyles ran a personal-best 9.81 seconds at the London Diamond League final last weekend and it's expected that it'll be a thrilling 100m event in Paris this summer with the two frontrunners in fine form.
Bet365's latest odds put Thompson as favourite with those odds suggesting a 46.5% chance of him winning 100m Gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics with Lyles implied probability according to the odds sitting at 34.8%.

| Kishane Thompson | 23/20 | 46.5% |
| Noah Lyles | 15/8 | 34.8% |
| Oblique Seville | 8/1 | 11.1% |
