This is what you call coming up short.
American sprinter Noah Lyles, running in the Inspiration Games _ in which world-class competitors ran simultaneously in remote locations like a video conference call for BBC television _ appeared to smash Usain Bolt's 200-meter world record when he clocked 18.90 seconds in Bradenton, Fla.
Five minutes later, red-faced officials confessed they'd put Lyles' starting blocks in the wrong lane _ meaning he'd run only 185 meters. And costing him his $10,000 first-place prize.
