STAMFORD, Conn. – August 24, 2023 – Team USA sprinters and 100m World Champions Noah Lyles and Sha’Carri Richardson are expected to headline NBC Sports’ comprehensive live coverage of the final weekend of the 2023 World Track & Field Championships from the National Athletics Centre in Budapest, Hungary across NBC, Peacock, CNBC, and USA Network.

Weekend coverage is highlighted by the women’s and men’s 200m final, expected to include 2023 100m world champions Lyles and Richardson, during Friday’s evening session on USA Network and Peacock at 3:40 p.m. ET and 3:50 p.m. ET, respectively. Lyles, who won his first 100m world title last weekend, could become the first man since Usain Bolt in 2015 to successfully pull off the 100m/200m double at an outdoor world championship. If he wins his third consecutive 200m world title on Friday, he would trail only Bolt for most career 200m world titles. He has also been outspoken in his pursuit to break Bolt’s 200m world record of 19.19.

Richardson won her first global medal last Monday, beating out a competitive 100m field that included 10-time world champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (Jamaica) and three-time world champion Shericka Jackson (Jamaica). Richardson is expected to once again face off with reigning 200m world champion Jackson as well as 2023 U.S. 200m champion Gabby Thomas for the world title on Friday.

Saturday’s action, during the evening session on CNBC and Peacock, is highlighted by the men’s and women’s 4x100m finals, at 3:40 p.m. ET and 3:50 p.m. ET, respectively. The men’s team, which took home silver at last year’s World Championships, could possibly include the last three 100m world champions in Lyles (2023), Fred Kerley (2022), and Christian Coleman (2019). The reigning world champion women’s squad will look to repeat. In the women’s 5,000m, Faith Kipyegon (Kenya), who became the first woman to ever win three 1500m world titles with her victory earlier this week, looks to become the first woman to pull off the 1500m/5,000m double at a single world championship (2:50 p.m. ET).

The final day of competition on Sunday, during the evening session on NBC and Peacock, is highlighted by the women’s 800m at 2:45 p.m. ET, where reigning Olympic champion and defending world champion Athing Mu looks to add to her already-impressive global medal count, as well as the men’s and women’s 4x400m relays, where the United States are the defending champions in both sections. The men have won two consecutive 4x400m world titles while the women have won three. The men’s 4x400m is slated to go off at 3:37 p.m. ET and the women’s at 3:47 p.m., closing out action in Budapest.

Other notable events on Sunday include the men’s 5,000m final, expected to feature defending 5,000m world champion and 2023 1500m world silver medalist Jakob Ingebrigtsen (Norway) and two-time Olympic 5,000m medalist Paul Chelimo (3:10 p.m. ET).

Leigh Diffey and Paul Swangard serve as play-by-play announcers alongside four-time Olympic medalist Ato Boldon, four-time Olympic gold medalist Sanya Richards-Ross, 2012 London Olympic decathlon silver medalist Trey Hardee, and two-time Olympic distance runner Kara Goucher. Lewis Johnson serves as reporter.

WORLD TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS OREGON22 BEGIN ONE MONTH FROM TODAY ACROSS NETWORKS & PLATFORMS OF NBCUNIVERSAL

By

First-Ever Outdoor World Championships in United States from University of Oregon’s Hayward Field to be Presented Across NBC, Peacock, USA Network and CNBC

Four Weekend Nights of Live Primetime Coverage on NBC Broadcast Network

Extensive Streaming Coverage Across Peacock During 10-Day Event

STAMFORD, Conn. – June 15, 2022 – One month from today, the World Track & Field Championships Oregon22 will begin from the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field and will be presented across numerous networks and platforms of NBCUniversal. It will be the first time the outdoor World Championships will ever be held in the U.S. and NBC Sports will utilize NBC, Peacock, USA Network, CNBC and NBC Sports digital platforms to provide extensive coverage.

In total, NBC Sports will present 43 hours of television coverage plus extensive streaming coverage throughout the 10-day championship meet including four nights of live primetime weekend coverage (July 16-17, July 23-24) and four days of live afternoon weekend coverage (July 16-17, July 23-24) on the NBC broadcast network.

Peacock will stream all competition sessions from Eugene, including exclusive live primetime coverage on July 18 and July 19. In addition, Peacock will simulstream all live coverage on NBC, with full simulstreaming of NBC, USA Network and CNBC programming available on NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports app.

USA Network will provide coverage primarily for full competition sessions during weekdays in primetime, while CNBC will have two windows during the first weekend of the meet. Specific tune-in details across all networks and platforms will be announced soon. For a full event schedule, click here.

The prestigious meet will be held at University of Oregon’s iconic Hayward Field in Eugene, Ore., which re-opened its doors in 2021 after undergoing major renovations from 2018-2020 that have cemented its status as one of track & field’s premiere venues for international competition.

Dubbed “TrackTown USA,” Eugene and the University of Oregon have hosted multiple U.S. and NCAA championship meets and Diamond League competitions, making it only fitting that it hosts the first-ever outdoor World Championships in the U.S., which was originally scheduled for 2021, but was delayed after the 2020 Tokyo Olympics postponement.

NBC Sports and World Athletics agreed to a long-term media rights extension in November 2020 that will keep World Athletics track & field on NBC through 2029, with the World Track & Field Championships Oregon22 being the first of five outdoor World Championships that will be showcased on the network over the next seven years (2022, 2023, 2025, 2027, 2029). NBC will also present the next four indoor World Championships, World Athletics Relays, and World Athletics Under 20 World Championships, as well as the next five World Athletics Cross Country Championships and World Athletics Half Marathon Championships.

In addition to the World Championships, NBC Sports is set to present six hours of coverage of the U.S. Outdoor Championships across NBC, Peacock, USA Network, and CNBC from June 24-26. This national championship meet will be held at Hayward Field, with the top athletes in the U.S. all vying for spots on the prestigious team that will be sent to compete at the World Championships later that summer.
