At 62, Lewis is now coaching athletes at the University of Houston and is impressed by the emerging young talent in sprinting. He welcomed the increased international participation in sprint events, believing that this diversity enhances the competition and makes it more thrilling for spectators. Lewis mentioned Noah Lyles as a potential favorite for the sprint events based on recent performances but avoided making firm predictions due to the early stage of the season.
