The men's 200 metres at the 2024 Summer Olympics was held in four rounds at the Stade de France in Paris, France, between 5 and 8 August 2024. This was the 29th time that the men's 200 metres was contested at the Summer Olympics. A total of 48 athletes were able to qualify for the event by entry standard or ranking.

Summary

The event is surprisingly stable, with the first six at the previous Olympics all returning. After winning three successive World Championships in a row, the 2020 bronze medalist, Noah Lyles was the favorite. The defending champion, Andre De Grasse, was the silver medalist in 2016 and at the 2019 World Championships. The returning silver medalist, Kenny Bednarek also finished second to Lyles in 2022 but was left off the podium in 2023, finishing fifth. Fourth place in 2021 was the youngster Erriyon Knighton, now 20 years old but experienced, having finished third in 2022 and second in 2023. Lyles' forte that has helped him win not only 200 metre races but more recently the 100 metres in 2023 and these Olympics is his closing top end speed. Fifth place in 2021 was Joseph Fahnbulleh with a notorious poor start, consistently has fast closing speed, picking off competitors down the home stretch year after year. And in 2023, bronze medalist Letsile Tebogo was actually gaining on Lyles toward the finish. Another wild card here is the sole appearance of these games by 400 metre world record holder and 2016 Olympic champion Wayde van Niekerk.

The first semi-final saw Bednarek running a relaxed 20.00 but Alexander Ogando displaced De Grasse. The second saw Tebogo beat Lyles with a 19.96. Knighton and Fahnbulleh qualified out of semi 3 with van Niekerk tying for last place. Time qualifiers were both from Zimbabwe; Tapiwanashe Makarawu and Makanakaishe Charamba.{{cite web |title=Men's 200m - Semi-Final results |url=https://olympics.com/OG2024/pdf/OG2024/ATH/OG2024_ATH_C73B2_ATHM200M--------------SFNL--------.pdf |website=Olympics |access-date=8 August 2024 |date=7 August 2024 |archive-date=15 August 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240815162325/https://olympics.com/OG2024/pdf/OG2024/ATH/OG2024_ATH_C73B2_ATHM200M--------------SFNL--------.pdf |url-status=dead }}

In the final, Tebogo achieved the fastest start, with Lyles giving 0.1 seconds. Bednarek quickly moved out through the turn to take the lead by 0.05 seconds over Tebogo, who was starting to move. Bednarek and Tebogo entered the straightaway, side by side, with Lyles a small distance behind. From there Tebogo accelerated for a relaxed win. Lyles struggled to achieve a fast closing speed, as his form fell apart towards the end. He held his position ahead of Knighton to finish third. Second, third, and fourth places were identical to the previous Olympics, but with Tebogo taking first place.{{cite web |title=Men's 200m - Final race analysis |url=https://olympics.com/OG2024/pdf/OG2024/ATH/OG2024_ATH_C77A_ATHM200M--------------FNL-000100--.pdf |website=Olympics |access-date=8 August 2024 |date=8 August 2024 |archive-date=12 August 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240812003231/https://olympics.com/OG2024/pdf/OG2024/ATH/OG2024_ATH_C77A_ATHM200M--------------FNL-000100--.pdf |url-status=dead }}

Tebogo became the 5th fastest performer in history, setting a new African record. Bednarek and Lyles also recorded sprints that ranked among the top ten fastest 200m times in Olympic history.{{cite web |url=http://www.alltime-athletics.com/m_200ok.htm |title=Men's 200m |access-date=15 August 2024 |archive-date=4 June 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080604032413/http://www.alltime-athletics.com/m_200ok.htm |url-status=live }}

After the race, Lyles collapsed on the track and was taken off in a wheelchair. It was later confirmed that he had tested positive for COVID-19 two days prior, which affected his performance.{{Cite news |last=Murray |first=Ewan |date=2024-08-08 |title='I do have Covid': Noah Lyles reveals positive test after taking 200m bronze |url=https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/aug/08/i-do-have-covid-noah-lyles-reveals-positive-test-after-200m-bronze-paris-olympics-2024 |access-date=2024-08-09 |work=The Guardian |issn=0261-3077}} He later stated he would not run in the 4x100m or 4x400m relay races.{{Cite web |date=2024-08-08 |title=Noah Lyles: Paris 2024 Olympics sprint double bid wrecked by Covid-19 |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/olympics/articles/c3w6qpgezz5o |access-date=2024-08-09 |website=BBC Sport |archive-date=14 August 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240814104523/https://www.bbc.com/sport/olympics/articles/c3w6qpgezz5o |url-status=live }}

Competition format

The 2024 edition of the event introduced a significant change to the competition format, in the addition of a repechage round. For the first round to semifinals advancement, instead of the "fastest losers" method used previously (and still used for the repechage to semifinals and the semifinals to final advancements), all of the runners who did not qualify on place received a second chance to run in the repechage round. This increased the number of rounds from three to four, and guaranteed that all runners could run at least twice.{{cite news | title=What's new at Paris 2024? The inclusion of repechage rounds in athletics | publisher=Paris 2024 | date=2 October 2023 | url=https://olympics.com/en/news/whats-new-paris-2024-athletics-repechage-round | archive-date=16 August 2024 | access-date=27 March 2025 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240816060919/https://olympics.com/en/news/whats-new-paris-2024-athletics-repechage-round | url-status=live }}

In the first round, the top 3 in each of the 6 heats advanced to the semifinals, with all remaining runners relegated to the repechage. The repechage had 4 heats, with the top 1 runner in each heat plus the next 2 fastest overall advancing to the semifinals. For the semifinals, the top 2 in each of the 3 heats advanced along with the next 2 fastest overall.
