NASSAU, Bahamas, May 4 ― Track and field’s own Netflix series, focusing on sprinters and due to be aired ahead of the Paris Olympics this summer, will reveal the global appeal of the sport to a wider audience, according to Sebastian Coe .
“It was really interesting when I spoke to the Netflix guys,” Coe said in Nassau ahead of the World Athletics Relays.“The thing that really surprised them when you go to a world championships and on the first day you’re celebrating gold medals from Dominica and Ecuador, you know that you are in a truly global sport.”
“I’m pretty excited,” Lyles said. “I’d say more than showing a personality, I love telling a story. Looking at 2023 it’s probably my best written story so far. “People can understand 100 per cent that it’s just not one race,” he said. “We have our lives off the track. Coe said the series would also showcase the “extraordinary jaw-dropping talent that is in our sport, the diversity of the sport, the inclusive nature of it and just the global footprint”.“Our athletes are unique,” the 67-year-old Briton said.
